Disengagement

Lately, I’ve noticed myself getting pulled into news headlines and social feeds.

Not just checking in, but doom-scrolling.
Not catching up with it, but caught up in it.

So I’m trying on a new mindset: progress comes from protected attention.

When I feel the pull of distraction, I pause, reset, and remind myself:

“Every distraction steals from the life I’m trying to build.”

When I do engage, I try to do it intentionally.
More often than not, I’m practicing what it's like to simply not engage.
