0:08.0	I'm Mary Meckley and I welcome you to a brand new series we're launching into this week and this series is all about
0:19.6	something we all could use a little more of and that is mental focus. Your time and attention
0:31.6	is at an all-time premium unlike any other time in recorded history, so we are told by experts. And what are you focusing on these days? Do you even
