Episode description

The huge cognitive cost of constantly checking your phone - and what you can do about it. My guest is Johann Hari - author of Stolen Focus - who explains the 'switch cost effect', and outlines some simple steps to rediscover the joys of focus, which is fundamental if you are going to get into flow. Speaking of flow, my debut book - Champion Thinking: How to find success without losing yourself - is available for pre-order now. Drawing on some of my favourite interviews from this podcast over the last five years, I want to challenge our ideas about 'success', and where peace, joy and fulfilment are truly to be found. Flow is a fundamental theme. Pre-order here: https://www.simonmundie.com/book YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/YouTubeSimonMundie Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/simonmundie/ Hosted on Acast.
