This doesn’t really answer the question, but I think our society encourages distraction.
As an aside, I’ve long been interested in what sorts of mental exercise a person could do if they were interested in improving their ability to focus.
Both!
Focus by nature. Squirrel by aging.
I can identify with this, Ruby. I used to be very focused on tasks and now (after 65) I feel like I get distracted by anything shiny.
A focused squirrel? If and when I put my mind to it, I can be quite focused. Although my anxious nature means that aside from those times, I am a squirrel.
