undivided attention
Full mental presence
Undivided attention is complete focus on one thing, with no mental energy split elsewhere.
When someone has your undivided attention, you're fully present—not glancing at your phone, not thinking about dinner.
Now that the kids are in bed, you have my undivided attention.
The phrase often appears as a polite request or promise of focus.
