Strategies for Getting and Keeping the Brain's Attention
The
human brain has an amazing capacity to wield a potent cognitive
strategy: selective attention. When we consciously focus our attention
on something, we bring the power of the prefrontal cortex to this
endeavor.
By honing our ability to focus attention at will, we can more
effectively screen out two types of distractions:
Input through our sensory organs, and
Our emotional responses.
