Take back Yyour attention without burning bridges or dropping the ball

Are you constantly pulled out of deep work by “quick questions,” messages, and false emergencies?

Do you feel busy all day but end most days knowing the important work never got done?

Have you tried productivity hacks only to realize people, not tasks, are the real problem?

Most people don’t lose focus because they’re weak—they lose it because they’re too available. Interruptions pile up: quick questions, meetings, messages, “urgent” emails that aren’t. You respond because you’re responsible, but over time, that responsiveness taxes your attention, fractures your thinking, and kills deep focus. And the worst part? You blame yourself when the truth is, you’ve been trained to be interruptible.

Stop People from Distracting You shows you how to take back your focus without becoming cold, rude, or unavailable. It delivers a practical, real-world system for stopping interruptions at the source—physically, digitally, and socially—in a world designed to constantly claim your attention.

“What if I can’t change my job, my family, or my situation?” Good—this book was written for that reality. You don’t need perfect conditions, compliant people, or aggressive boundaries to protect your focus. You need systems that hold under pressure, boundaries that don’t require constant defense, and progress that’s sustainable—even when life isn’t.

Stop being endlessly available—protect your focus and do work that actually matters.
