Amazing book to read and practical solution to get your mind to think in a productive way

Coming from the author who gave us the "Hooked" model, this book is based on the perspective from the other side of the river bank - how to "unhook" or get "Indistractable"! A simple, breezy read on how to apply a 4-part framework to isolate, identify, understand, & overcome our distractionsNir Eyal has expressed his simplicity, humility, and vulnerability while writing the book, as the chapters can easily relate to what every human is experiencing in her/is life today. Many of the situations described with how we get distracted is nothing unheard or inexperienced for many of us. However, the approach to gain traction on these and how to overcome the distractions to gain focus in anything that we do, has been powerfully brought out with examples by NirWhat I liked the most about this book are 3 things, 1. The "Remember this", a short summary on each chapter, 2. Chapter takeaways at the end of the book, and 3. The Templates & reference material, available both at the end of the book as well as at nirandfar.comOnce again, thanks to Nir & Julie for creating a wonderful reading experience!

This book provides a novel and quite interesting ways of dealing with distraction in our day to day lives. I was feeling this pressure of distraction while acquiring a new skill within a really short span of time and my struggles with distraction really dampened my spirits. So I turned to this book to see if it can help me improve my output. The four key take-aways - Master your internal trigger by surfing the urge and 10 min rule, Remove external triggers and replace them with things you want to do, PIE (Price, Individuality and Effort) pacts to gain traction and lastly Timeboxing the time even for distraction. I will not say I have become completely indistractable but I have embarked on a journey with the help of this book. I would recommend this book to anyone who is on a journey to work upon him/ herself to become better version as each day passes.
