It's time to reclaim our lives. It's time to take control.
Lifescale is a journey of self-discovery and growth. It's about getting back into balance and remastering our destinies. Author Brian Solis knows first-hand. He struggled with distraction and all of its ill-effects. To get his life back, he developed a set of techniques, exercises, and thought experiments designed to tame the chaos, and positively and productively navigate our day-to-day lives. Instead of falling victim to the never-ending cycle of newsfeeds, Likes, addictive apps, and boredom scrolling (aka the endless scroll), we can learn to manage our time and inspire our own lives in a way that will bring meaning back--without sacrificing the benefits that our devices bring us.
In Lifescale, Brian has done the legwork to pull together scientific findings and practical tools into one book. Readers--especially those who are distracted--will connect with the humor, pathos, and inspiration inside. Using this book's simple but powerful lessons, we can:
* Identify sources of distraction and turn attention toward creativity and productivity
* Understand and resist the manipulative techniques that turn us into digital addicts
* Find meaning and purpose to guide our time in more meaningful ways
* Visualize future success to successfully dive into deep work and stop procrastinating
* Break bad habits, establish rituals, and establish routines that help you achieve goals
* Nurture imagination and learn to express ourselves more artistically
* Maximize productivity with simple but effective strategies
* Focus for extended periods and make breaks more restorative
* Foster a strong sense of purpose in life and identify the steps needed to bring it to life every day
* Smile more and build self-esteem
With the renewed perspective Lifescale offers, we can finally learn to prioritize what matters, and live our digital and physical lives with intention and true happiness.
