Attention is the world's most valuable resource

As many of us reflect and try to grapple with the moment in history in which we find ourselves, a primary factor at play is our attention: both the powerful and sophisticated forces that capture it, and how we’ve been psychologically trained to spend it. I’ve read many articles and listened to numerous podcasts about the attention economy, and this Ezra Klein podcast with Chris Hayes is particularly rich with insights and worth a listen.

"The people who are on top of the world right now understand [attention's] value, and how to wield it. And if there’s going to be a successful opposition of them, they will need to understand it’s value, and how to wield it. And right now, they don't."
