Have you read this uberman? if so did it help? , seems interesting but the baseline issue is the topic of the thread its tough to read nowdays due to attention span..
of course, i only mention books i have read.

This one with emotional intelligence by daniel goleman will just change your life for ever, as simple as that.

Exactly! I hate those 30-40 minutes long tube8 clips - I forward to the 10th minute and the bitch is still in lingerie and chats with the cameraman about her boring life!  >:(

 Actually I've been feeling like this lately too. I think it's the internet.

 Pretty son i'm gonna unplug myself from all technology and go into the wild for a while to get my head straight.

When I was younger I could lose myself in books, watch hours of tv, watch movies intently etc.....

Now....I fidget, daydream during movies, can't finish a book etc...

All I can handle now are 10 minute youtube clips....

Anyone else feel their attention span has gone to **** in the last few years....?





I am not too sure about the question or topic I didn't read the whole thing....oh wow look at that bird flying...

I actually feel like mine has increased.  Its weird...  If I'm focused on something people will talk to me and I wouldn't hear anything and they really have to put an effort to get me out of my "zone"

YES. It's horrible, this site is a bad habit! 
Too much working out or dieting doesn't give you the energy to concentrate also.

being focused like everything else is something you can learn / unlearn.

 Bill O' Reilly is garbage for people who are too stupid to read real books about politics and history.
