Welcome to Beyond The Speech!
In this episode, I speak about the takeaways I found most interesting in the book Indistractable by Nir Eyal.
Nir Eyal writes, consults, and teaches about the intersection of psychology, technology, and business.
He previously taught as a Lecturer in Marketing at the Stanford Graduate School of Business and the Hasso Plattner Institute of Design at Stanford.
Nir is the author of two bestselling books
- Hooked: How to Build Habit-Forming Products
- Indistractable: How to Control Your Attention and Choose Your Life.
The main takeaways I found from the book that I think are worth sharing are about
- Internal Triggers
- External Triggers
- Time Blocking
In addition, I talk about a specific hack that I have for myself that helps me control my phone addictions. Its an app called "Opal". If you want to learn more about it, check out the link below.

I am no way affiliated with this company, but I just LOVE it.

#1. Beyond The Speech - Trailer
Welcome to Beyond The Speech!
Do you honestly think that all the highly successful people with great businesses and books and youtube channels out there with their productivity hacks, they have it all FIGURED OUT?
Do they never feel down and just want to lay in bed all day watching Netflix and eat Cheetos with 1 hand and gulping a drink in another?
Do they really follow all the hacks that they talk about in their books and really squeeze productivity out of their day and consistently perform at their peak? Do they feel nice?
Well, you are in the right place!
I am starting this podcast out of a deep-seated curiosity and a desire to learn from EVERYONE. As someone constantly seeking to improve myself, I found myself drawn to the stories and strategies of those who have achieved any type of success in their respective fields.
So this podcast is about those stories.
The books that I read, what I learnt from them, Readers, authors, productivity gurus, or just a random stranger on social media who might be able to help ME level up and in doing so, help you.

Welcome to Beyond The Speech!
In this episode, I speak with Tyler Keenan, who, just like me, is confused about the true meaning of productivity.
He shares his journey towards Self-actualization, spiritual journey, his experience of quitting a full-time job and taking the leap of faith of becoming a full time YouTuber.
This is the video that resulted in @mattdavella sliding into Tyler's comments!
