Hyperfocus
Hyperfocus by Chris Bailey
2023-07-06T20:21:00Z
Do you ever feel overwhelmed by the constant distractions and interruptions in your life? Do you struggle to focus on what matters most and get things done? Do you wish you could be more creative and innovative in your work and personal projects?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you might benefit from reading Hyperfocus by Chris Bailey. Hyperfocus is a practical guide to managing your attention – the most powerful resource you have to become more creative, get stuff done, and live a more meaningful life.
In this book, Bailey reveals how the brain switches between two mental modes – hyperfocus, our deep concentration mode, and scatterfocus, our creative, reflective mode – and how the surest path to being our most productive and efficient selves at work is to combine them both.
Hyperfocus teaches you how to:
Identify and deal with the four key types of distraction and interruption that prevent you from focusing.
Establish a clear physical and mental environment in which to work and eliminate unnecessary clutter and noise.
Control your motivation and work fewer hours to become more productive by setting intentional goals and deadlines.
Take time-outs with purpose and use breaks, meditation, and exercise to recharge your attention and energy.
Multitask strategically and learn when to switch between tasks and when to single-task.
Learn when to pay attention and when to let your mind wander wherever it wants to, depending on the type of work you are doing.
By transforming how you think about your attention, Hyperfocus reveals that the more effectively you learn to take charge of it, the better you’ll be able to manage every aspect of your life.

Although I’ve read a few self-improvement books and I’ll share some of them here, however take a due note here " fellow readers" that It would go all in waste if you dont apply even one principle taught in a book.
So its good to read less here but apply more in practical sense in your life, as hands-on experience is the most important aspect.

Atomic Habits 
Author : James Clear
Part : 1
Summary : 
Atomic Habits is a book that teaches you how to create good habits and break bad ones by applying a simple framework called the Four Laws of Behavior Change. The book explains how habits are the compound interest of self-improvement, meaning that small changes can lead to big results over time. The book also shows you how to focus on your system rather than your goals, how to shape your identity through your habits, and how to design your environment to support your desired behaviors.
The Four Laws of Behavior Change are:
- Make it obvious: Make the cues that trigger your habits visible and clear.
- Make it attractive: Make the rewards that follow your habits appealing and satisfying.
- Make it easy: Make the actions that comprise your habits simple and effortless.
- Make it satisfying: Make the outcomes that result from your habits positive and rewarding.
