Ali Abdaal
Cambridge-trained doctor, productivity expert, and YouTube star Ali Abdaal reveals the secret to achieving your goals and staying energized while doing it.
The secret to productivity isn’t discipline. It’s joy.
You know the feeling: some days are an endless grind, leaving you depleted and exhausted, while others leave you feeling energized and excited for what's to come. The difference isn't necessarily about effort or busynessboth days can be equally full. Rather, some dynamics just take your energy away, while others give you more. By understanding what energizes us, we can change our approach to work without changing who we are, and start to get more out of every day.
Because productivity should never be about getting things done at the expense of everything else. There's a kinder, more sustainable and ultimately more effective approach to productivity - discovering how to work with your psychology rather than against it, so you can begin to harness energy from your work and apply it to what matters most.
Combining the research-backed pragmatism of James Clear with the uplifting voice of Jay Shetty, this book does for productivity what Atomic Habits did for behavior change. Ali shows that productivity need not be difficult. In fact, with the right mindset, living a life full of energy and meaning can be downright easy.
If you're tired of feeling exhausted, if you struggle with staying motivated, or if you're risking burnout, this book is for you.
