Episode notes

Being indestractable does not mean you never get distracted. It means you strive, which means you learn from when you get distracted. And now you will have a system to fix those problems in the first place. So I don't care if people get anything else from what we're going to talk about or my book or anything else. If you can use this mental picture and explain it to others, this is your weaponry against this distracted world that we live in.

Nir Eyal lectured at Stanford's Graduate School of Business and his first book, Hooked: How to Build Habit-Forming Products, is an international bestseller and taught Silicon Valley how to design behavior. His next book, Indistractable: How to Control Your Attention and Choose Your Life, reveals the Achilles' heel of distraction and provides a guidebook for getting the best of technology without letting it get the best of us.

Top 3 Value Bombs:

1. The antidote to impulsiveness is forethought. You can conquer destruction by planning ahead.

2. Everything you do is to escape physical or psychological discomfort, so when you procrastinate you're always escaping an uncomfortable sensation

3. You have more power than you think, and you can become indistractable!
