When I wrote my first book, I wasn’t doing many speaking engagements. It was easier for me to write because I didn’t have so many demands on my time. But the more popular the book became, the more distracted I got, flitting from one thing to the next, always checking my device. When I sat down to write or work on other projects, I would check emails or the news, just to distract myself. Because at the time, I didn’t have the right techniques in place. Learning how to manage my time and attention, turned into a project that eventually became my second book: Indistractable! I didn't write the book because I had superhuman self-control. I wrote it because I didn't. And one of the important things I realized was that learning to control my attention didn't just help me finish my work on time. It helped me in my relationships with my wife and daughter. It helped me align my schedule with my values. For anybody still looking for holiday gift ideas, I'd recommend the gift of becoming indistractable. I've included a link in the comments section to some signed copies of my book my publisher is selling. How are you spending the holiday season with your loved ones? #Indistractable #Author #Gift #Holidays #Focus …see more
