What's the focus?

Attention Span

This concept refers to the length of time a person can focus on a task before getting distracted, that is, being involuntarily drawn to a different activity.
 

According to studies, today’s average human attention span is 8.25 sec. Attention is crucial because focusing on a topic for long periods allows people to develop listening and analytical skills that will help them make decisions later on.
