1122 | The Generous Act of Attention

Behavior Gap Radio

How are you investing your attention in your relationships? Are you being mindful enough? Today, Carl Richards explores the idea of attention as a form of capital and its critical role in building meaningful connections. Inspired by a quote from Simone Weil, Carl discusses how paying attention can be one of the most generous acts we can offer others. During a recent retreat, Carl was asked why he views attention as one of the four key sources of capital—alongside time, money, and energy. This question led him to reflect on the fleeting nature of attention and the importance of being intentional with where we focus it.
