When we lose an hour to doomscrolling, avoid work we care about or abandon a change we meant to make, it is easy to blame a lack of discipline. Nir Eyal asks a better question: what made that choice easier in the first place? Sometimes the answer lies in a product designed to bring us back. Sometimes it is the boredom or stress we are trying to escape. Sometimes a belief has already convinced us that trying will not make a difference.In this unscripted live event in Melbourne, New York Times bestselling author Nir Eyal brings together the ideas behind Hooked, Indistractable and Beyond Belief. Eyal will examine how habits are built into products, why distraction often begins with discomfort and how beliefs shape what we are willing to attempt. Once you can see what is at work, you have somewhere more useful to begin than "try harder."
