Marci Nault discusses how as book readership has dropped, and device usage has grown, our attention span has shortened to between 3–8 seconds.

This causes harm to our relationships since we can no longer listen for long periods of time. It affects learning, because the brain has overstored so much stimuli, and since short term memory can only hold six items at once, we can’t remember what we were doing five seconds ago, never mind long combinations of skills.

Worse, it affects our ability to train our minds to commit to longterm goals, which is needed to achieve our dreams.

In returning to reading the written word, even for entertainment purposes, we allow our minds to rewire again to learned focus. Getting lost in story allows us to calm our central nervous systems, heighten our awareness to our senses, and allows us to sit for long periods of time focused on one thing.
