If we are to pursue a life oriented around stewarding one’s attention, we need to begin with an entirely new set of diagnostic questions: ■ What do I give my attention to? ■ What do I invest my brain power in? ■ What do I invest my emotional energies in? After assessing the nature of what we do attend to, we then need to ask evaluative questions about how we ought or want to live: ■ What should I give my attention toward? ■ What should I invest my mind’s energies toward? ■ Indeed, what do I want to be doing with my life?
