The Global Pulse
from The common denominator podcast · host Robert Leizear
Let’s start with the baseline truth. Every single day, you wake up, and before your feet even hit the floor, what do you do? You reach for that glowing rectangle on your nightstand. You check the news, you check your notifications, you look at the markets, you look at social media.Now, we’ve been told for the last decade that we live in the "Information Age." That sounds sophisticated, right? It sounds like we're all just wandering around becoming geniuses because we have access to all human knowledge. But let's keep it real. It’s a lie. We don’t live in an information age; we live in an overload age. And because information is infinite, do you know what becomes incredibly scarce? Your attention.Your attention is gold, the oil, the prime real estate of the modern world. Silicon Valley, media conglomerates, political machines, they don’t care about your well-being, and half the time, they don’t even care about your money directly. They care about your eyeballs. Because if they own your eyeballs, they own your perspective. And if they own your perspective, they can manipulate the market, the culture, and the state of society.
