The advice that follows, however, is precisely - chapter and verse - MINDFULNESS. If that was his honest opinion, and if he then proceeded to outline a substantially different approach to resolving distractions, I would have no complaint. He says he suspects that if you're listening to his book, it's because mindfulness meditation didn't work for you either. At approximately 10:08 he says "I steer clear of recommending well worn techniques like mindfulness and meditation." He goes on to say that he's tried that and it didn't quite do the trick for him. The author starts by shamelessly plugging his previous book then blatantly lies to us.
International best-selling author, former Stanford lecturer, and behavioral design expert, Nir Eyal, wrote Silicon Valley's handbook for making technology habit-forming. What would be possible if you followed through on your best intentions? What could you accomplish if you could stay focused and overcome distractions? What if you had the power to become "indistractable"? Another day goes by, and once again, your most important personal and professional goals are put on hold. At home, screens get in the way of quality time with your family.
Later, as you're about to get back to work, a colleague taps you on the shoulder to chat. You sit down at your desk to work on an important project, but a notification on your phone interrupts your morning. "Indistractable provides a framework that will deliver the focus you need to get results." (James Clear, author of Atomic Habits)
