Flashlight Analogy For Attention

In this talk, I share a helpful analogy for understanding attention - the flashlight. Learning to cultivate our attention and direct our attention in a meaningful and helpful way is one of the most empowering practices I have come across. We have little control (if any) over anything in our life, apart from what we choose to focus on and where we direct our attention. By using the flashlight analogy, we can illuminate how we are using (or being impacted) our attention and what we can do to strengthen our attention.
