The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett

INSIGHT

Mastering Internal Triggers

  • To become indistractable, reimagine your response to uncomfortable internal triggers and deal with them healthily.
  • Reimagine tasks to make them less burdensome, avoiding the "spoonful of sugar" approach.
  • Reimagine your temperament and reject the myth of willpower as a depletable resource.
  • Recognize that "ego depletion" only affects those who believe in it.
  • Cultivate an internal locus of control, believing in your power to avoid distractions.
