Description


Nir Eyal (http://NirAndFar.com/Indistractable) is the bestselling author of "Hooked: How to Build Habit-Forming Products (https://amzn.to/32I7vQR)" and "Indistractable: How to Control Your Attention and Choose Your Life. (https://amzn.to/2ZXNvgi)"
He has taught at the Stanford Graduate School of Business and Hasso Plattner Institute of Design. His writing on technology, psychology, and business appears in the Harvard Business Review, The Atlantic, TechCrunch, and Psychology Today.
In this conversation he talks with Erik about the hidden psychology driving us to distraction. He describes why solving the problem is not as simple as swearing off our devices: Abstinence is impractical and often makes us want more.
Eyal lays bare the secret of finally doing what you say you will do with a four-step, research-backed model. Indistractable reveals the key to getting the best out of technology, without letting it get the best of us.
