Indistractable
How to Control Your Attention and Choose Your Life
Master internal triggers to do what you actually plan to do.
Indistractable argues that distraction starts from within, driven by our attempts to escape discomfort, and offers a system for staying focused. Eyal covers mastering internal triggers, planning your time around values, hacking back external triggers, and using precommitments. It is a practical counterpart to Hooked, aimed at the people on the other side of habit-forming products.
Founders run on scarce attention and constant interruption, and this book offers a concrete model for protecting deep work and prioritizing what matters. It treats focus as a skill with specific tactics rather than a matter of willpower.
