How To Build Better Habits And Create Space For Meaningful Work - With Nir Eyal
Manage episode 71201123 series 45783
Nir Eyal wrote the book on habit forming technology, called “Hooked: How to Build Habit-Forming Products”. In this interview, we talk about how he was able to change his own everyday habits in order to pursue more meaningful work and living. He provides a few awesome hacks for making small changes and changing your own habits as well.
Show Notes:
- My top three podcasts: Invisible Office Hours, Portfolio Life, and The Lede.
- Instead of focusing on the goal of writing a book, Nir focused on sitting down for 45 minutes every day in order to build a habit of writing. The book came naturally after he sorted that habit out.
- Setting goals can cripple your progress, especially if you have to do creative work, or seek to find answers to questions you don’t have answers to yet.
- Focus on MEA (Minimum Enjoyable Action), in order to start building better habits.
- Getting your physical body in order, allows your your mind to function better, and builds a foundation for healthy habits for life.
- Using a simple $5 timer from Home Depot could just save your marriage :)
- To check out Meditations by Marcus Aurelius, here is the book, and theaudiobook.
- Listen to the interview with Paul Jarvis on living without goals, and Jason Zook on leading an Action Army.
If you enjoyed this episode, or this podcast in general – I would really appreciate if you would take a couple of minutes and leave an honest review or rating on iTunes. It would help me build a better show, and help other folks find the podcast :)
Don’t forget, you can always get in touch with me directly at hello@26k.ca. Thank you for listening,
– ernest.
