Leanne on Demand Daily with Leanne Hughes 🌴 5. Becoming Indistractable with Nir Eyal (Weekend Rewind)
Leanne Hughes welcomes Nir Eyal, author of 'Indistractible,' to discuss his journey and the importance of mastering focus in our distraction-filled world. Nir shares his career trajectory, from founding tech companies to exploring behavioural design, leading to his seminal work on building healthy habits with 'Hooked.'
Nir emphasises that all human behaviour aims to alleviate discomfort, whether stemming from internal or external triggers. He introduces 'timeboxing' as a strategy to align our schedule with our values and make purposeful use of our time. He also discusses workplace culture, the importance of planning personal activities, and the concept of 'traction' versus 'distraction.'
Key takeaways for listeners include understanding the roots of distraction, employing tactics like a distraction tracker, and fostering personal integrity by committing to one's schedule.
Nir’s approach encourages you to take control of your time and focus with intent, enabling you to lead a more fulfilled and productive life.
