Attention

Where the day goes. Two pieces about giving worry a container and about the difference between rest and input, which most of us have stopped being able to tell apart.

• The Twenty-Minute Worry Window

• Rest Is Not Scrolling

  One is recovery; the other is continuous novel input. After ten minutes, do you feel clearer or flatter? Test it.
