I noticed it last year, and it was because of Vitamin B12 deficiency.

That decline is a generational problem. Thank you, cheap dopamine form social media, now we can't focus on anything that takes longer that 30 seconds to watch
Yep, been struggling with focus lately too. Started using the Pomodoro technique and it's helping a bit. 25 min focus sprints with short breaks. Maybe give that a shot?
Yes, I’ve definitely notice my focus slipping lately. I think all the screen time and constant notifications are a big part of it.
Yeah, definitely noticed the same thing. I find my focus drifting more easily these days, especially when working on tedious or mentally draining tasks. Been trying to take more frequent short breaks to reset my mind, which seems to help a bit. Curious what others have found useful for improving concentration!
Yes, I've noticed it especially during stressful times. I try to manage it by taking regular breaks and practicing mindfulness.
Yes, that is true.
I decided to remove all distractions, live my life only on schedule in Google Calendar and Asana tasks, remove all notifications from my phone except urgent from my wife, remove any social media apps from my phone home screen. And it really helped me.
