Oh, the irony of KZread putting two 15 sec ads in the middle of a video about people's inability to focus in the 21st century.

Best book I've read in the last twelve months and I read one book a week. He takes complex research and makes it so accessible.

I skimmed through this summary impatiently

Knowing how to focus is a superpower in the modern world.

Love the new graphics. More refined and accurate. Thanks for the content 🙏🏽

This video "spoke" volumes to me ! Beautiful !!!

Solid Points- I am guilty of being on my phone sometimes before going to bed.

Great breakdown but now I feel bad that I had KZread open before bed..😂

The irony that we are skimming through the actual book by watching this video. But I guess, most of us need the information first in order to read the book.

I thought this exact thing too hahaha

One day i had this breakthrough when i asked myself, how much things got added into my life thanks to the thousands of hours spent on the internet trought the last 5 years. The answers is barely nothing

After listening this, I'm stopping x2 Playback, sleep 8 hours and thank God, I choosed this audio summery over a music video.

Book First is a cool concept. I read my notes and affirmations first before diving into other things. Also I observed recently that I tend to skim so much info and watch knowledge youtube videos at 1.5 X Speed with still scrolling through other videos. This video appears to be a wake up call and thank you for creating this. Regards,

Wow! Insane. I've actually been struggling with this and it has been effecting achieving my goals the last few months. I was watching videos on this and reading articles yesterday. And now you post this. The Universe is always working for me! :D Whahahha God is always fully taking care of me! :D

Thank you for your continuous and consistent effort to improve others life.

Your work is really great..... Thanks for this beautiful content 💞💞

Thank you so much for doing this video. Really hit me in so many ways. Really appreciate it.

I use to treat sleep as a reward for working hard. Then I burnt out. Now I’ve realized that sacrificing sleep is counterproductive to achieving my goals. Sleeping 8-9 hours is now a built-in pillar to my productivity.

I have paper books stashed everywhere. As soon as I get a moment; I read. I have an old flip phone that makes me more situational aware and present (mainly for physical security reasons since I carry a loaded firearm at all times due to work.) Smart phones are the source of most of the loss of focus and they spy on you.

special book, with proven practical tips to improve focus and inspiring quotes too

Great work here. I just recently subscribed to your content. It's brief and to the point. That's what works for me.

Thanks for the video and for de pdf!

Thank you so much for this wakeup call

Fire book review as always, thank you 🔥🙏

Thank you so much for sharing this. Insightful!!!

Excellent message and great review thank you

Great video. Thanks for this. I am reading the book. Very important topic I think!!

Thank you for this summary

This is a really great illustration and explanation will implement these action steps. 😎🔥👌

Thank you again ❤️❤️❤️

Thanks!

This book goes along well with mindfulness books like "30 Days to Reduce Anxiety" by Harper Daniels.

I literally just saw this on Goodreads and thought “man I wish Productivity Game would do a video about this one” little did I know…😂

thank you man

Powerful

Excellent recommendation, especially the realization to fight for focus. And, if one hour in the morning is good, wouldn't two hours or more be better?

I guess it's a compromise between setting priorities and being productive. I guess you could say, Why not 6 hours in the morning (although it is likely evening by then), but then you spent too much time planning to make yourself productive that you skip the productivity.

Almost two months ago I canceled the data on my device. My ADHD is on its way to being manageable because of my contrary

Please make a book review on "The Intimate Enemy" by Guy Finley.

Loved this idea but it's aimed at a certain demographic. Just impossible to get up and have this much sole attention when you're incharge of 3 small humans. The thought of getting up and having my own time to do something like this sounds like a dream in itself.

Death Penalty for Focus Robbers then we Fo Cus on No Thing works

On the book reading, I take issue. People dont read as much as they used to? Dude, I spend a buttload of my day reading emails, tech docs, code and bullcrap like tweets or reddit posts. I dont want to read any more when I clock out. I also read to my kid every night for about 12-20 minutes. I have considered getting up in the morning to take a walk then read before the family is up, for leisure/growth but I really dont see reading as all that rewarding any more.

Well, I wish I could sleep 7-8 hours of day would be amazing, however, I don’t know how to convince my baby

Slight irony in that just watching this video was skimming content.

Most seems like bad advice except for the sunlight, starlight and spotlight methodology. You should only read a book if it progresses your starlight, otherwise what’s the point?

Focus without guidance is useless …

It would help if you s-l-o-w-e-d down. You speak so fast it's difficult to understand.

0.75 seems like a much better speed. I almost wonder if the audio was sped up for the video.

Kinda tired of these idea gurus. Their livelihoods depend on creating ideas that are attractive, getting a book deal, then talking about it for months / years. Do you think they believe or even care about that idea usually‽

I would highly recommend this book. According to me this summary, unfortunately, fails to mention some very important ideas that Johann has emphasized in this book. He mentions that this is a Systemic Problem and Individual-level solutions will not suffice. He talks about this idea called "Cruel Optimism", it is when you take a really big problem with deep causes in our culture-like obesity, depression, or addiction and you offer people, in upbeat language, a simplistic individual solution. I definitely don't think Johann comes across the "Idea Gurus" that you talk about. In a way, I think he makes his readers aware of such people through the discussion of Cruel Optimism
