Recognizing the attention magnets in your life

From James Clear’s must-read 3-2-1 Thursday newsletter, this way of seeing with a new filter:

Look around your environment.

Rather than seeing items as objects, see them as magnets for your attention. Each object gently pulls a certain amount of your attention toward it.

Whenever you discard something, the tug of that object is released. You get some attention back.
