Becoming Focused and Indistractable

"This quest showed me how little I knew and helped me understand what actually lies behind my “distractive” behavior"

Before this quest, I also thought that technology is the main problem and that by hiding my phone distractions will go away. Or that I just can’t stop myself from watching those Youtube videos. 

This quest showed me how little I knew and helped me understand what actually lies behind my “distractive” behavior. 
This past year had been extremely challenging in terms of management and juggling all tasks and chores. 

I couldn’t wish for a better time to do this quest. It not only fulfilled my expectations, but I gained a much bigger value in terms of self-awareness, connection to my family, and creating time for myself. I was surprised to see rapid changes even during the quest. 

The areas which have positively improved refer to productivity during the day, scheduling time for self-care, and reconnection to my kids. Whereas the tools Nir recommends are practicable, the golden nuggets I found in this quest relate to the perception that distraction is not a vice but a choice we can undo, what lies behind procrastination, and how to take life back into my hands. 
And to my biggest surprise, I ended the quest with a number of guiding principles as regards the upbringing of my kids! A quest I fully recommend!
