Episode notes

Nier et al. is best known for writing hooked, how to build habit forming products. He's especially really focused on the mind, and which I love about Nier is he's got a really good handle on how our brain processes. We're going to talk all about his brand new book called Indestractable. So check it out again, userdefenders.com slash store.

Nir Eyal teaches us how to harness the skill of the century…becoming Indistractable. He reminds us that distraction is an action that starts from within. He motivates us to take command of our personal development in a world that is frequently competing for our attention. He encourages us to recognize the external triggers that don’t serve us and how to be more mindful of those that do. He also shares what it takes to be competitive in an increasingly automated job market.
