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, behavioral designer Nir Eyal reveals the hidden psychology driving you to distraction.

Nir will discuss his new book: Indistractable. He will give us deep insights on why it is becoming more and more difficult to focus on the things that matter most. In the Q&A, you will be able to ask Nir about the science of attention.

Ever get the feeling the world is full of too many distractions? Research shows the ability to stay focused is a competitive advantage, in work and in life. However, in an age of ever-increasing demands on our attention, how do we get the best from technology without letting it get the best of us?

"If you value your time, your focus, or your relationships, this book is essential reading. I’m putting these ideas into practice."
-Prof. Jonathan Haidt, author, The Righteous Mind

Nir presented for us in 2015 on his book “Hooked”. We learned so much about how to build addictive apps. as well as how to know when use of apps becomes unhealthy.

We are very fortunate to have him present to us via webinar on July 1. Don’t miss it!
