Staying focused on the task-at-hand is, and always will be, a challenge. I applaud Sec Def Hegseth for reigning in the shinny - sparkly distractions. Maintaining eyes-on mission is paramount to peak performance!!!

For those that don't completely see this as a distraction , think of this in 'analogous' terms ... very much like going to fitness gym, with all intents of focusing on burning 10,000 calories during your visit, but then get distracted by: the Aerobics Class (ie: flirtatious form fitting // revealing spandex outfits) and/or the Protein Shake Bar with multiple tasty flavors (as well as your favorite Ice Cold Adult Beverage) where there's an endless - useless amount of chit-chat.

So true Rob - getting distracted is easy. The Aspen Institute is an echo chamber of irrelevant personalities.
