The mission to distract you

It’s not easy to stay focussed. Or is it?

Transcript
Speaker:

Did you know that the universe is on a mission to distract you from

Speaker:

remaining focused on what matters most?

Speaker:

It will never stop trying to get you off track.

Speaker:

Even if you once started from a position of total clarity about what

Speaker:

matters most, new ideas constantly pop up, new paths want to be explored

Speaker:

and, generally, times change.

Speaker:

Which sometimes means that new opportunities open up.

Speaker:

More often, these are just distractions.

Speaker:

That's why it's so important to play clarity as an infinite game by constantly

asking ourselves:

are we still on track?

asking ourselves:

Do our actions still reflect what we want to be known for

asking ourselves:

and what matters most to us?

asking ourselves:

And did we let go off the nonessential things, the distractions?

asking ourselves:

Let's just refuse the universe, the triumph of distracting you, will you?

asking ourselves:

Although, now that I mentioned this here's something that might be worth it.

asking ourselves:

The book “Essentialism” helps you recognize the utter unimportance of

asking ourselves:

almost anything so that you can focus on what truly matters, which to me

asking ourselves:

sounds really useful to be prepared for the infinite game of clarity.

asking ourselves:

But now, you're in a dilemma.

asking ourselves:

Should you let yourself become distracted by a book that teaches

asking ourselves:

you how to not get distracted?

I told you:

clarity is an infinite game and the universe is on a mission

I told you:

to make it as hard as possible.
