Concentrate for 8 Seconds. These days we’re all about things being faster. That’s why this advice is invaluable: When you really need to remember something, concentrate on it for at least 8 seconds. That can seem like a long time when you're running around trying to get a million things done, but it is worth it.

by Arthur C. Brooks,  Recently, I checked in on a friend who, like many of us, is “sheltering in place” during the coronavirus epidemic. I asked how she was doing. Not great, she told me. When she wakes up every day, her first thoughts are about what she would have been doing if it weren’t for the virus.

She confessed that she is frittering away her time thinking about what might have been and what might happen, and ends her days frustrated and exhausted. A lot of people are feeling this way as the quarantine drags on. There’s so much we are missing from our old lives—graduations, weddings, family get-togethers, religious celebrations.
