Fokus. O vnimanii, rasseyannosti i zhiznennom uspekhe (kratkoye izlozheniye)

Lyudi predpochitayut vsem resheniyam te, kotoryye realizuyutsya mgnovenno: seychas ya syem pirozhnoye, a potom syadu na diyetu. Nam deystvitel‘no slozhno poterpet‘, dazhe yesli my prekrasno osvedomleny o vygodakh, kotoryye poluchim v budushchem. Prichina kroyetsya v mozgovoy organizatsii: dlya mozga, otdayushchego komandy telu, samoye vazhnoye – to, chto proiskhodit pryamo seychas. Otsrochennyye posledstviya ignoriruyut ne tol‘ko otdel‘nyye lyudi – takoye proiskhodit na urovne organizatsiy i tselykh obshchestv, chto sozdayot global‘nyye problemy, s kotorymi chelovechestvu tol‘ko predstoit spravit‘sya. Chtoby segodnya byt‘ uspeshnym i reshat‘ masshtabnyye zadachi, chrezvychayno vazhno uchityvat‘ vremennoy gorizont. Yesli nash mozg ne delayet etogo avtomaticheski, znachit, my dolzhny prikladyvat‘ soznatel‘nyye usiliya, chtoby v fokuse nashego vnimaniya okazyvalis‘ deystvitel‘no vazhnyye veshchi. K sozhaleniyu, mir, trebuya osoznannosti, ostavlyayet nam vso men‘she shansov byt‘ sosredotochennymi. Yeshcho v 1977 godu laureat Nobelevskoy premii ekonomist Gerbert Saymon pisal, chto pereizbytok informatsii ubivayet vnimaniye: zashchishchayas‘ ot peregruzok, mozg ekonomit resursy. S tekh por informatsii stalo yeshcho bol‘she, a tekhnologii privlecheniya vnimaniya k nenuzhnym veshcham stali izoshchronneye. Chtoby vyzhit‘ v segodnyashnem mire, perepolnennom otvlekayushchimi faktorami, nado zanovo uchit‘sya zaostryat‘ fokus. Avtor knigi predlagayet svoy vzglyad na tsenneyshiy resurs, sposobnyy perevernut‘ nashu zhizn‘, – proizvol‘noye vnimaniye. Yego retsept zaklyuchayetsya v nastroyke trokh fokusov. Pervyy – vnutrenniy – pomogayet nam sveryat‘sya s sistemoy tsennostey i istinnymi zhelaniyami. Vtoroy fokus – empaticheskiy – neobkhodim, chtoby naladit‘ vzaimootnosheniya s okruzhayushchimi. Tretiy – vneshniy – eto umeniye oriyentirovat‘ v mire vozmozhnostey i ugroz, analizirovat‘ situatsiyu, vydelyat‘ glavnoye i delat‘ vernyye vyvody. Podrobneye v nashem obzore, predstavlennom v Biblioteke «Glavnaya mysl‘».
