The secret to productivity isn't discipline. It's joy.
We think that productivity is all about hard work. That the road to success is lined with endless frustration and toil. But what if there's another way?
Dr Ali Abdaal - the world's most-followed productivity expert - has uncovered an easier, happier path to success. Drawing on decades of psychological research, he has found that the secret to productivity and success isn't grind - it's feeling good. If you can make your work feel good, then productivity takes care of itself.
In this revolutionary book, Ali reveals how the science of feel-good productivity can transform your life. He introduces the three hidden 'energisers' that underpin enjoyable productivity, the three 'blockers' we must overcome to beat procrastination, and the three 'sustainers' that prevent burnout and help us achieve lasting fulfilment. He recounts the inspiring stories of founders, Olympians, and Nobel-winning scientists who embody the principles of Feel-Good Productivity. And he introduces the simple, actionable changes that you can use to achieve more and live better, starting today.
Armed with Ali's insights, you won't just accomplish more. You'll feel happier and more fulfilled along the way.

The secret to productivity isn't discipline. It's joy.
We have all been told that the secret to productivity is simple: work harder. The trouble is, endless hard work doesn't just make us unhappier - it makes us less productive too.
Here, Dr Ali Abdaal draws on the latest scientific research to show that the most productive people aren't those with the strongest discipline, or even the best habits: they're the ones who find meaning in the tasks before them. Along the way, he sketches out a healthier, happier path to accomplishing what matters - one rooted in discovering joy in everything you do.
