This is one of the most thought-provoking pieces I've read from you over the last few years, Pallavi!
Your doubt of a possible brain fog induced by the chemo of 2 years ago, I think is ill-founded....thinking and doing -- or wanting to do --- "many" things each day and all the time is the culprit I feel. De-cloud your mind of to-do stuff.....and don't bother about trying to remember anything.... it's the present which matters, not the past or the future....
Please keep writing more frequently.....and keep all of us readers happy and wanting more!!
What a remarkably insightful piece, Pallavi!You start by suggesting that the ‘deterioration’ might be due to our chronological age:). But then the seismic changes caused by the technological tools( crutches?)we use seem only to add to the our growing helplessness. Any remedies that might help?😀. Vikram
Love the part where you said that our focus has become our luxury! We're being designed to drown in our phones and our attention span just keeps on being exploited.
I happened to cover an aspect about this in one of the podcasts called Cubbon Takes where we spoke about how behaviour change also needs investment but no body is really interested in it since the rich can afford to avoid it the most, it seems.

Loved this, Pallavi! "To sit with difficulty and discomfort" so I can finish a darned book is my new goal. Thank you.

Thoughtful. Reason for mindfulness and attention to what you are doing at present
Excellent piece, Pallavi, and I agree with Dev too.
