Summary: Has the urge to pick up your phone become a constant nervous twitch? Do you feel like your concentration has been dulled by non-stop scrolling? Our addiction to technology is leaving us exhausted and overwhelmed. But it doesn't have to be that way. Cal Newport shows us how to pare back digital distractions and live better with less technology. He introduces us to digital minimalists -- the calm, happy people who can hold long conversations without furtive glances at their phones or obssessively documenting everything they eat -- and reveals how to live more intentionally in our tech-saturated world. By following a thirty-day 'digital declutter' process, you'll learn to rethink your relationship with social media, prioritize meaningful conversations over low-quality text chains and rediscover the pleasures of the offline world.
