Read the first chapter: You Are Not UndisciplinedA choice worth noticing.
This book will not ask you to quit social media, reject technology, or turn every free minute into productivity. It will show you why feeds are so easy to enter and so difficult to leave, how your own behaviour helps shape what appears next, and how to redesign that relationship without giving up the parts of digital life you genuinely value.
Your attention is finite. The feed is not. By the end, you should be able to recognize when you are choosing the feed and when the feed is quietly choosing for you.
