You sit down at your desk to work on an important project, but a notification on your phone interrupts your morning. Later, as youre about to get back to work, a colleague taps you on the shoulder to chat. At home, screens get in the way of quality time with your family. Another day goes by, and once again, your most important personal and professional goals are put on hold.
What would be possible if you followed through on your best intentions? What could you accomplish if you could stay focused? What if you had the power to become indistractable?
International bestselling author, former Stanford lecturer, and behavioral design expert, Nir Eyal, wrote Silicon Valleys handbook for making technology habit-forming. Five years after publishing Hooked, Eyal reveals distractions Achilles heel in his groundbreaking new book.
In Indistractable, Eyal reveals the hidden psychology driving us to distraction. He describes why solving the problem is not as simple as swearing off our devices: Abstinence is impractical and often makes us want more.
Eyal lays bare the secret of finally doing what you say you will do with a four-step, research-backed model. Indistractable reveals the key to getting the best out of technology, without letting it get the best of us.
Inside, Eyal overturns conventional wisdom and reveals:
Why distraction at work is a symptom of a dysfunctional company cultureand how to fix it
What really drives human behavior and why time management is pain management
Why your relationships (and your sex life) depend on you becoming indistractable
How to raise indistractable children in an increasingly distracting world
Empowering and optimistic, Indistractable provides practical, novel techniques to control your time and attentionhelping you live the life you really want.
