Our guest today Nir Eyal, author of Hooked: How to Build Habit-Forming Products, which has been a huge bestseller and is considered a must-read book in Silicon Valley.

Nir's latest book is Indistractable: How to Control Your Attention and Choose Your Life, which is being released on September 10. I've read a review copy, begun putting his recommendations into effect, and I highly recommend this book to anyone who has ever been distracted.

In today's episode, Nir shares highlights from the book, and gives a summary of his four-part approach to becoming indistractable.

Nir has a bunch of free downloads that go along with the book on his website at: www.NirAndFar.com/Indistractable

While you are on his site, definitely sign up for Nir's weekly email - I love it.
