Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

The secret to productivity isn't discipline. It's joy.

We think that productivity is all about hard work. That the road to success is lined with endless frustration and toil. But what if there's another way?

Dr Ali Abdaal - the world's most-followed productivity expert - has uncovered an easier, happier path to success. Drawing on decades of psychological research, he has found that the secret to productivity and success isn't grind - it's feeling good. If you can make your work feel good, then productivity takes care of itself.

In this revolutionary book, Ali reveals how the science of feel-good productivity can transform your life. He introduces the three hidden 'energisers' that underpin enjoyable productivity, the three 'blockers' we must overcome to beat procrastination, and the three 'sustainers' that prevent burnout and help us achieve lasting fulfilment. He recounts the inspiring stories of founders, Olympians, and Nobel-winning scientists who embody the principles of Feel-Good Productivity. And he introduces the simple, actionable changes that you can use to achieve more and live better, starting today.

Armed with Ali's insights, you won't just accomplish more. You'll feel happier and more fulfilled along the way.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Critic Reviews

Ali is the master of productivity. Nobody has a talent for distilling complicated ideas into fun, accessible and actionable insights quite like him. (STEVEN BARTLETT, creator of Diary of a CEO)
Ali is the absolute master on how to be productive without sacrificing your own happiness. This is the book we've all been waiting for. (Dr Julie Smith, author of Why Has Nobody Told Me This Before?)
In this eye-opening and important new book, Ali Abdaal flips the conventional narrative on productivity: accomplishing important things is not about creating more efficient systems but instead about cultivating a deeper energy for your work. This really got me thinking! (Professor CAL NEWPORT, Georgetown University, author of Deep Work and Digital Minimalism)

Being a long time fan of Ali, I was curious to see what might be new in this book. There was a lot! It’s clear how much time and energy Ali put into this book and I can’t thank him enough. I particularly appreciated the chapter called Align. I think it’s profound. Also, knowing that everything Ali says has been fact checked and researched according to the latest science is a real comfort. Looking forward to receiving the paperback soon and studying this book deeper. I also really like that Ali narrated the book too, I know that would’ve been an extra challenge but it made the listening probably 5 times better. Bravo.

Like many who will buy this book, I have been following Ali on Youtube for years watching his journey through being a junior medical doctor to going full-time YouTuber, writer and creator. For those who aren't familiar with Ali, you're in for a real treat. He's a good egg, the real deal, and the book is absolutely delightful to listen to. It is warm, nerdy and funny and full of his genuine personality. While it's called "productivity" the content isn't about being productive or efficient. It's about understanding yourself as a human, flaws and all. It's about getting your head unstuck so you can do the things you're passionate about. It's about connection and clarity. I'm sure the physical book is great, but the audiobook is just perfect. Thanks Ali, you did a great job on this recording! I will absolutely listen again.

A delightful feel-good book!

I like how the author uses his personal experience to share key practical tips we can all apply in our lives. Everyone is different but we can choose to make informed decisions daily to focus on what gives us joy and meaning. Continuous reflection and evaluation of why we do what we do will keep us from being burnt out in the rat race/ expectations of others which may not matter 10 years from now.

Turn SMART goals into NICE goals and have fun while achieving more of what matters!
