About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

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.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Critic reviews

Ali is the master of productivity. Nobody has a talent for distilling complicated ideas into fun, accessible and actionable insights quite like him. (STEVEN BARTLETT, creator of Diary of a CEO)
Ali is the absolute master on how to be productive without sacrificing your own happiness. This is the book we've all been waiting for. (Dr Julie Smith, author of Why Has Nobody Told Me This Before?)
In this eye-opening and important new book, Ali Abdaal flips the conventional narrative on productivity: accomplishing important things is not about creating more efficient systems but instead about cultivating a deeper energy for your work. This really got me thinking! (Professor CAL NEWPORT, Georgetown University, author of Deep Work and Digital Minimalism)

This year has come to a close with an absolutely delightful and thought-provoking gem. I've been a devoted follower of Ali for nearly four years now, and with the influx of YouTubers-turned-authors, there's always a lingering concern that their books might be filled with fluff or recycled material. However, that is certainly not the case here!

Ali demonstrates a profound understanding of his audience and the purpose this book serves in the realm of self-improvement and productivity. Personally, I found it to be an invigorating breath of fresh air, offering both enjoyment and actionable insights. The writing style is effortlessly comprehensible, reminiscent of classics like "How to Win Friends and Influence People."

If you're a fan of Ali's content or appreciate the practicality and accessibility of easy-to-digest reading material without any unnecessary fluff, then look no further. This book is an absolute must-read and, hand on heart, it has earned a spot among my top five favorite books of the year.

I genuinely hope this review serves as a valuable recommendation for you.

One of the best!

I’m a big fan of Ali as I’ve been watching his YouTube channel since he was a doctor in Cambridge. His content online is really packed with value. Past content of his inspired me to start a website and to read so many of his book recommendations.

Now for the book review. The first half read like an academic paper. I felt like his writing could have been more engaging but the content was good. The last half seemed to flow better and the advice and tips in this half were valuable. This book has a lot of good advice and insights and I would recommend. Definitely looking forward to reading more books by Ali Abdaal.

The second half of the book contained the most tips and insights

There was nothing to dislike it was a book about productivity and he managed to cover every angle to ensure that the reader understood the concepts. It's a book that you can use and reuse over and over again and pass it on to the next generation. It's a self-help book to get you moving forward with your goals. It's a very helpful book. And worth every penny. THIS IS A MUST READ and then apply the principles. I have started to implement the exercises in the book and I am feeling good already. Well done!!!

This book is a very considered concentrate of Ali Abdaal's youtube videos. If you are used to watching his glossy, honest, YouTube videos then you will be familiar with the principals within this book. The benefit of the book for me was the directness of the information, and the grounding in research it has. It is useful for those who have never employed productivity tricks, and useful to those who have for the maintenance of them. If you are someone looking to make a positive, and in general happy change in their life you can't go wrong buying this book.

The most genuine book of any self help category I've ever had the pleasure of hearing or reading. So human in his understanding of the human condition and so loving in his encouraging words that there is nothing wrong with you you just haven't found what works YET...keep trying and the secret is JOY. Yes you will still have to apply yourself to discipline but I do believe it will be much more HUMAN now, more grace, more understanding less GRIND less STRESS. I see A LOT of people finally achieving their dreams because of this book's promptings. I salute you Sir GREAT WORK

Hope in a book 📖
