Episode 3754:

Nir Eyal explains how to manage distractions by focusing on the internal triggers that spark them, rather than fighting the urges themselves. Through practical techniques like writing down triggers, exploring sensations with curiosity, and “surfing the urge,” he shows how to turn fleeting impulses into opportunities for self-mastery and improved focus. These methods help us stay present, avoid reactive behaviors, and build resilience against everyday temptations.
