Manage external triggers like your phone ringing or your work colleagues tapping you on the shoulder when you are in deep work mode. Nir talks about and gives you tips on how to master internal triggers like going to the fridge when you need to do some work.
Take a moment, learn the settings, change the way you interact with your technology, it may benefit your way of thinking, feeling and being. We individually have the power to use our smartphones and applications in the way we want and choose to use them, not the way the app makers are vying for our attention. Our mind is the most powerful weapon we have to avoid distraction however it is also the very thing that we have which starts the distraction in the first place! I loved Indistractable due to the way in which it broke down modern day life, it gave me the perspective that it is not the fault of the smartphone or the internet that causes distraction. also I did Jim Kwiks reading course in January and I embarked on his challenge to read 52 books this year, I am about 20 books through at the moment. I’m quite into courses and personal growth and have been for about 2 years. I saw the author advertising a course on being indistratable and I thought what better way to scope the course out than to buy the book. Fair play to Nir for coming up with a brand new word that sounds so exciting.įor many years I found myself sitting down at my computer with a list of five things to do and starting with the eighth thing on the list. Ha! On further research I found that the word is actually coined by the author.
I don’t feel like I had ever heard that word before, it isn’t even recognised by my grammarly spell check. It is a book by Nir Eyal that starts by stating distraction is the opposite of traction
