The author of indestractable says technology is neither good nor bad. Neers uses it very minimally and even has a follow up book about email being broken. Both books are based on similar philosophies but there's some really big differences like I feel, he writes.
This week I’m joined by my friend Jeff Sieh of Social Media News Live to talk through the top productivity books for 2023. With the new year well underway I wanted to take the time to compile and curate a list of my favorite productivity books of the past year and share them with listeners. In this episode Jeff and I break down my list and share some of the many tips and takeaways that these books have given us. In addition Jeff and I discuss some of the highlights from the various authors' appearances on the show while offering up opinions on how each book benefits the different aspects of our productivity.
