“How to Do Nothing: Resisting the Attention Economy” by Jenny Odell is a thought-provoking exploration of reclaiming our attention in a world overwhelmed by digital distractions and constant productivity demands. Odell challenges the societal pressure to be perpetually busy and advocates for the value of activities often deemed unproductive, such as spending time in nature and fostering genuine human connections. Through a blend of cultural critique and personal reflection, the book offers a compelling argument for resisting the attention economy and rediscovering the importance of presence and mindfulness in our lives.
