Attention Zones Model

The four attention zones are: Reactive, Proactive, Distracted and Wasteful. The reactive zone is when an individual becomes focused on the task at hand as soon as it starts to be performed (like a person working in an office who will write down that day’s tasks once they arrive). A proactive attention zone monkey sees another monkeys hands feeding bananas. Progressive activity could be anything from reading a book or listening to music while doing something else like cooking dinner. In the distracted area your mind wanders and you lose focus of what you were just thinking about before getting caught up with social media.
