A Quote by Ann Makosinski

My attention span has never been on point - in school as well - unless I'm very, very, very into something. — © Ann Makosinski
My attention span has never been on point - in school as well - unless I'm very, very, very into something.
I have a very short attention span, so books have never been my thing.
I have a very short attention span, so sitting down with a book is very difficult for me.
I'm the sort of person with a very short attention span, and I lose interest in things very quickly.
Unless you have been very, very lucky, you have undoubtedly experienced events in your life that have made you cry. So unless you have been very, very lucky, you know that a good, long session of weeping can often make you feel better, even if your circumstances have not changed one bit.
I must say, the people who started this whole Masterclass series have been very helpful and very intelligent to point out certain things and also give me some guidance, "isn't there something missing, shouldn't we address this or that?" so it's not completely alone out of the blue. It's very well thought through.
I'm very sensitive. It's always been something I'm very in tune with. I am very emotional. Sometimes to the point of where I just want to hide away, because I can't get a handle on myself.

I've heard people say that [I have a short attention span]. I don't feel I do, because when I'm interested in something I'll stay in focus as long as it is necessary... If you get off on something I'm not very interested in, it's very easy for me to block it out. It's easy for me to block things out.
You can't have Thanksgiving and not just be like, 'All right, where's the football.' It's been branded very, very well. You can't have one without the other at this point.
Acting, believe it or not, can get very self-involved! I feel fortunate to have been able to work on things with people who have a very specific point of view and perspective, and who feel like they're doing something very active.
Being an American, we're very lucky that all of the attention is very rarely just on one person. Unless you're Serena - then it's on you all the time.
