131: Indistractable with Nir Eyal
Manage episode 240550048 series 1169853
Whatâs the difference between distraction and traction? Why donât we do the things that we know we should do? And how can we learn from techniques that tech companies use to hook us into their products in order to redirect our attention toward what we really want to be, do, and create in the world?
Nir Eyal and I discuss these topics and more in this weekâs podcast conversation based on his new book, Indistractable: How to Control Your Attention and Choose Your Life. He also outlines the four steps of the Indistractable model: master internal triggers, make time for traction, hack back external triggers, and prevent distraction with pacts.
