Inspired by book #Indistractable.- Andy Proctor, CAPP December 19, 2019 We MUST prioritize values alignment or we will constantly be distracted. Our enemy is our own misalignment with our values that keeps us from experiencing what we most desire in life.

Social media & technology are not our enemies. Otherwise, if our calendars do not align with our values, we will constantly be drawn away from them by even the smallest 'shiny object' in our view (or our notifications). Why? Because if we actually remember the values that are driving our calendar, it's easier to do the things we plan. And the critical factor for me was when he talked about matching our values with our calendars. In my interview with Nir Eyal, we discuss that the source of our distraction may not be an undiagnosed case of ADHD, but that it is actually discomfort. This is what I love about Nir Eyal's newest book: Indistractable. I have experienced the overwhelm and frustration that comes from coming to the end of the day and realizing that I haven't spent enough time on the things that I valued most. One study showed that the average US smartphone user receives 46 app push notifications per day! With all the technology that exists, if you aren't deliberate about what you allow into your life, you'll be bombarded. Do you get distracted? Do you struggle to stay on task and get taken down the digital rabbit hole more often than you would like? If the answer is yes, you're not alone.
