Today i want to talk about Attention Span. So i present everything i currently know about it and i hope when my attention is not present (or I'm sleeping) i get something out of this Subject.
I'm sure we attract and think about what we are in congruence with. Have you ever noticed that you start noticing the car that you drive on the road? It became easier to seek. Today we have Twitter and Hash tags, which bring it to you. Today our attention spans are getting less exercise. Anything that you don't stress will grow bad. i mean back in the day i used to watch rap city and TRL, now its gone because we can watch videos via VEVO anytime. we used have to manage our schedule around it,and its working in the opposite way supposedly to our benefit.
Who reads books anymore. I googled a few statistics
- 50 percent of American adults are unable to read an eighth grade level book.
- 40 percent of all high school graduates never pick up a book again.
- 25 percent of all college graduates never pick up a book again .
- Arizona uses literacy rates to figure out how many beds to put into their prisons.
I love YouTube. but after seeing what I'm seeing, I have found beauty in literature. I'm not a story-teller and I'm very far from an aspiring author, but i am beginning to appreciate this literary work. What correlates to the last sentence is I'm also beginning to appreciate my own education more. And as i battle with finals again i can draw from this appreciation. And believe me anything you do coming from appreciation and a positive attitude you do better.
I devoted my attention briefly to other people represented by those statistics. No more. In my first blog i said i would read a few books this year, not one. And i hate dishonesty so i have to read another book, and I'm going to love it.
This blog is not secured at all with any privacy settings. When i made it, i wanted it to be something that you found, i don't just share my thoughts with facebook. When i made it, i knew i would touch subjects and if i did just let it out, it would have some positive and negative consequences. I kinda like how its going now. But as i write and write profusely i write, i begin to get even more secluded in thought. This challenges the world to get more creative in seeking my story. I want this to be as special for you as it is for me. I don't want your attention, unless its the right way.
Seek and you shall find. That's the foundation of "Tea Is My Destiny" I cant believe that held true 11 months ago.
