Paul Barclay hosts a fascinating conversation with the authors of One Moment Please, a wake-up call that will change the way you think about attention.

Attention spans have shrunk, distraction is growing, and we’re overcome and overwhelmed. It’s time to revive the dying art and precious gift of paying attention. It brings meaning, connection and happiness to our lives. But it’s also fragile and limited, and fast becoming one of the most threatened resources on the planet.

The average person spends nearly half their time ‘mind wandering’, doing one thing but thinking about something else. It’s one of the greatest concerns for current and future generations.

One Moment Please authors Susan Pearse and Martina Sheehan call attention “the currency of care” and after witnessing their talk with Paul Barclay, they will leave you in no doubt that it’s time to revive the dying art of paying attention and reclaim the vibrancy of a full life.
