And what I Learned in my 5 years writing this book, Indistractable, is that there is a methodology to managing distraction, to finally having the kind of life you deserve by controlling your attention. Now, how we do that is we have to use the four techniques in concert. Step number one, master internal triggers. Step number two, make time for traction. Step number three, hack back external triggers. And step number four, prevent distraction with packs. Now, of course, there's a lot more to this in the book Indistractable, but if you do just one small thing in each of these four areas, you will be well on your way.
