21. What does it mean to manage your attention online?
• Understand your goals and priorities and
ask yourself at regular intervals whether
your current activity serves your higher
priority.
• Notice when your attention has
wandered, and then gently bringing it
back to focus on your highest priority
• Sometimes in order to learn or deepen
relationships -- exploring from link to link
is permissible – and important. Don’t
make attention training so rigid that it
destroys flow.

Quickly Quiet Your MindA clear head produces the best insights. But it's a challenge to take time off in the midst of a busy day to rest your brain. Here are three easy ways to build breaks into your day:Meditate on your commute. If you use public transportation, take the time to close your eyes for 10 minutes. If you drive, leave a little early, park, and spend 10 minutes in the car before going into work.Regularly take breaks. Focus on work in spurts. Set a timer for 90 minutes. When it goes off, take five minutes to go for a walk, talk to a colleague, doodle, or listen to music. Even if you don’t think you need the break, take it.Take daydream walks. Two days a week during your lunch break, take a stroll for 20 minutes. Think about anything besides work — a beach vacation, building your dream house, whatever.

Great for Kinesthetic learners. Note that the word ‘paralysis’ can refer to loss of physical ability as well as a more metaphorical definition.Quote from Scott Wilson of Minimal, creators of Sticky Storm, an app that lets users sketch ideas, organize them organically, and share them with collaborators in real time.
