Title: Indistractable Pdf How to Control Your Attention and Choose Your Life
"Indistractable provides a framework that will deliver the focus you need to get results." (James Clear, author of Atomic Habits)
You sit down at your desk to work on an important project, but a notification on your phone interrupts your morning. Later, as you're 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 and overcome distractions? What if you had the power to become "indistractable"?
International best-selling author, former Stanford lecturer, and behavioral design expert, Nir Eyal, wrote Silicon Valley's handbook for making technology habit-forming. Five years after publishing Hooked, Eyal reveals distraction's 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 culture - and 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 attention - helping you live the life you really want.
Full of helpful tips I love that this book is full of actual tips, not just theories, and is backed by research. It's worth reading if you want to focus more of your time on things that matter to you :)Amazingly practical guide to help anyone! This was easily the best book I have read in the past year. The steps laid out to help improve relationships with family, friends and work are simple, elegant, and effective. Much care was put into explaining how our time and attention is diverted away from what we truly want, while referencing the relevant peer reviewed psychology articles supporting the proposed conclusions. Debunking common myths, helping me understand how to take accountability for excuses I didn’t even realize I was previously making. I recommend this book for any parent, manger, child or person who finds themselves distracted. In essence, I think everyone could benefit from this book. The real question is, do you actually apply the advice or just listen to it?MUST READ Practical Guide to Help you Avoid Distractions and Manage Your Time! Indistractable is a practical book that will help you take control of your life! As someone who works a full-time job and runs a business on the side, there are always distractions that come up. I've seen major improvements in my productivity since I read Nir's book.The advice and examples in the book are very actionable and you can apply them at your own pace. Unlike other books, in Indistractable, Nir helps you realize how much the distractions in your life are actually affecting you. That helps you realize that you need to make a change, and this is where Nir introduces a model to help you identify the distractions and their underlying causes. He explains how to manage both internal and external distractions. He explain specific tactics to address these, but the most valuable realization for me was that "managing distraction is m ore about managing pain and emotion" than anything else. If you can't manage the discomfort from remove a distraction (e.g. reducing time spent on your smartphone), then you aren't going to make any progress.While I am still working on implementing this in my life, this way of thinking has helped me start to identify distractions as they come up in my life. That trigger helps me get back on track. It is still a work in progress, but I feel like I am on the road to overcoming these distractions. Indistractable is a book that everyone who wants to be more productive should read. Highly recommend.
