Why You’re Never Going to Be Satisfied With Life - Nir And Far
02/05/2022 Duração: 07minThe surprising psychology of why dissatisfaction is hardwired … a good thing! Why are we perpetually restless and unsatisfied? We live in the safest, healthiest, most well-educated, most democratic time in history—and yet, some part of the human psyche causes us to constantly look for an escape from things stirring inside us. As the eighteenth-century poet Samuel Johnson said, “My life is one long escape from myself.” Me too, brother. Me too.

The Time Management Technique That Can Work For Anyone - Nir And Far
25/04/2022 Duração: 07minOvercoming the fear of being unavailable is essential to making timeboxing stick Too often, people eschew a method of bettering their life by naming the reasons it won’t work for them. “I can’t adhere to that diet because…” “Using an app to find love just isn’t for me because…” People regularly give me similar excuses about timeboxing, a powerful technique I recommend in my bestselling book, Indistractable.

The Key to Behavior Change is Identity Change - Nir And Far
11/04/2022 Duração: 04minUse the psychology of self-image to transform your habits for good. One of the most effective ways to change your behavior is to change your identity. I don’t mean joining the CIA or a witness protection program, or adopting an alter ego. I mean, rather, changing the way you see yourself. Our perception of who we are—our identity or self-image—has a dramatic effect on our future actions.

How to Make Sure Working From Home Doesn’t Mean You’re Always Working - Nir And Far
28/03/2022 Duração: 06minWhen large swaths of the U.S. population transitioned to work from home in March 2020, they lost that critical physical boundary between their work domain and other life domains. As a result, those facets of life have bled into each other, with work often taking precedence. A September 2021 study showed Americans’ work week has gotten 10 percent longer; it determined the length of a workday based on when employees sent their first and last messages each day. What does that mean?

Planning Ahead Is the Key to Living With More Spontaneity -- Nir And Far
21/03/2022 Duração: 06minIt may seem counterintuitive, but spontaneity often can’t happen without a bit of advanced planning In a 2020 study, 72% of people said they feel happier after a spontaneous act. Those who described themselves as a “spontaneous person” were 40% more likely to consider themselves a “happy person.” Of course, free time for spontaneity is hard to come by. That’s why I say the key to spontaneity is timeboxing, a powerful method for getting things done that involves planning out periods of time each day to focus on distinct tasks.

To Fix Your Problems, Find the Root Cause - Nir And Far
14/03/2022 Duração: 04minDo you play pool? I sure don’t. But I know enough about the game to use it as a metaphor for the hidden reasons we don’t do what we say we will. The object is to get balls into pockets using a big stick. However, you can’t just hit the balls into the pockets with the stick directly, you first have to get a white cue ball to smack the right ball in just the right way. So here’s the question: What causes the balls to go into the pocket?

One Question to Help You Get More Done - Nir And Far
07/03/2022 Duração: 07minIt was 9 a.m. and Wendy, a freelance marketing consultant, knew exactly what she needed to do for the next hour: be in her office chair to write new client proposals, the most important task of her day. She fired up her laptop and opened the client’s file on her screen, eager to win new business. As she held her coffee mug with both hands and took a sip, a fantastic addition to the proposal entered her head. “This is going to be great!” she thought to herself. But before she had a chance to write down the idea—“Ping!” Her phone buzzed with a notification.

The Pursuit of ‘Flow’ Is Overrated - Nir And Far
28/02/2022 Duração: 07minThat magical zone is great when you can find it. But what happens when you can’t? The idea of flow is considered by many to be the epitome of productivity.

How to Survive in a World of Information Overload - Nir And Far
21/02/2022 Duração: 07minPursuing knowledge is great until it becomes a distraction We live in a world of too much information, and it’s nothing less than a blessing.

How to Get a Friend to Put Away Their Phone Without Being a Jerk - Nir And Far
14/02/2022 Duração: 06minDigital distractions can get in the way of being fully present with the people we love. Here’s how to (politely) do something about it. Are we ever exclusively in our friends’ company? Our phones are almost assuredly present and ready to interrupt us with a poorly timed notification. Who hasn’t seen a friend divert their attention, mid-conversation, to reflexively check their phone? Most of us simply accept these interruptions as a consequence of our times.

How to Tame Your Wandering Mind and Actually Get Some Work Done - Nir&Far
07/02/2022 Duração: 08minResearchers believe that when a task isn’t sufficiently rewarding, our brains search for something more interesting to think about.

If You Don’t Plan Your Time, Someone Else Will - Nir&Far
31/01/2022 Duração: 06minMost people are stingy with their money and generous with their time. Here’s why that’s backward.

We pay attention, just as we pay with dollars and cents.

Would You Rather Give Up Sex or Your Phone? - Nir&Far
17/01/2022 Duração: 05minHow I Stopped Letting Tech Ruin My Love Life Every night, my wife and I engaged in the same routine: She put our daughter to bed, brushed her teeth, and freshened up. We both slipped under the covers, exchanged knowing glances, and started doing what comes naturally to a couple in bed: we began to lovingly caress our gadgets—she fondled her cell phone, while I tenderly stroked the screen of my iPad. Ooh, it felt so good!We were having a love affair—with our gadgets instead of each other.

Free Habit Tracker Template — Use this Sleek Google Doc - Nir&Far
03/01/2022 Duração: 08minBy Annie Graham Many people strive to improve themselves in one way or another. Whether it’s getting more sleep and exercise, or spending more time doing the things we love, our ideal selves drive us to be better. They symbolize our belief in our own potential to live in alignment with our values.

I Changed My Mind About Saying “Merry Christmas,” and You Should Too - Nir&Far
27/12/2021 Duração: 06minIn fifth grade, I was the only Jewish kid in my elementary school class. This was the 1980’s in Central Florida and even though it was a public school, unaffiliated with any church and funded with taxpayer dollars, my teacher taped a poster to the wall in her classroom that read, “Jesus Is The Reason For The Season.” I wasn’t offended per se. I’m pretty sure at ten, I didn’t know what that word meant. But I could tell the teacher was sending a message to anyone in her class who might have different beliefs—such as, say, that the tilt of the earth on its axis is the reason for the seasons.

How the Ancient Greeks Beat Distraction-Nir&Far
20/12/2021 Duração: 07minDistractions seem ubiquitous today, but they’ve always been a part of human life. Here’s how to resist them. Distractions impede us from making progress toward the life we want for ourselves. To visualize this, imagine a line that represents the value of everything you do throughout your day. To the right, the actions are positive; to the left, they are negative. The positive actions represent traction: they draw or pull us toward what we want in life. The word “traction,” in fact, comes from the Latin trahere, meaning to draw or pull.
