We are living through a crisis of distraction. Plans get sidetracked, friends are ignored, work never seems to get done.
Why does it feel like we're distracting our lives away?
In Indistractable, behavioural designer Nir Eyal reveals the hidden psychology driving you to distraction. Empowering and optimistic, this is the book that will help you design your time, realise your ambitions, and live the life you really want.

Quotes

  • Paulinahas quoted3 years ago
    Milkman’s technique is called ‘temptation bundling’ and can be used whenever we want to use the rewards from one behaviour to incentivise another. In my case, the articles I save to Pocket are my rewards for exercising.

    The trouble is, we don’t make time for our values. We unintentionally spend too much time in one area of our life at the expense of others
  • Paulinahas quoted3 years ago
    ‘Being indistractable means striving to do what you say you will do.’ To strive means ‘to struggle or fight vigorously’,4 it does not mean being perfect or never failing.
