Your devices track everything you do.
But when was the last time you examined the data about yourself?

Every scroll, click, pause, and late-night session leaves a behavioral trail. Platforms analyze this data continuously to predict what will keep you engaged. Most people never use the same evidence to understand their own patterns.

The Attention Audit turns that lens around.

Drawing on behavioral data, cognitive science, and systems thinking, this book reveals how modern digital environments shape attention — often without conscious awareness. It goes beyond productivity advice to examine deeper questions about focus, distraction, and agency in an age of algorithmic influence.

Inside this book, you’ll explore:

• Why time feels fragmented even when you’re constantly busy
• How algorithmic feeds reinforce reactive habits
• Why intention alone rarely changes behavior
• How attention patterns influence mood, identity, and perception
• What happens when data about your life contradicts your assumptions

This is not a digital detox manifesto or a motivation guide. It is a structured way to understand how attention is captured — and how it can be reclaimed.

This book is for readers who:

• Feel constantly busy but not meaningfully productive
• Consume large amounts of information yet retain little
• Suspect their devices influence them more than they intend
• Want clarity without motivational rhetoric
• Prefer evidence-based insight over quick fixes

You don’t need to abandon technology to regain control.
You need to understand how it interacts with human attention.

The Attention Audit offers a clear, data-informed perspective on one of the defining challenges of the digital age — and a practical framework for navigating it deliberately rather than reactively.
