Time Anxiety

The Illusion of Urgency and a Better Way to Live

Stop letting your phone rule your life. Phone Rules will help you break the cycle. Your phone is bad for you. It is harming your mental and physical health, ruining your sleep and limiting true human connection. We all know we need to get off our phones, but most of us are overwhelmed by the scale of the problem and by the many highly addictive ways in which our devices are designed to distract us, delight us and pull us back in. But here is the solution: a set of simple, sensible principles to govern the way we navigate our phone use. On his journey to break up with his smartphone, investigative journalist Luc Rinaldi hits the road and speaks to people at the forefront of the movement, from reformed social media addicts and digital defectors, to tech researchers and phone-free school children. Rinaldi has devised five insightful rules to resist our phones, along with helpful strategies to put them into action, including how to: - Stop obsessing over your screen time, find new mental space and improve your overall health - Protect your children against the harms of the digital world - Deepen your relationships with real people and the things that matter most. Rooted in on-the-ground research and written from the perspective of a tech-savvy, video-game playing millennial, Phone Rules offers a way forward for parents rearing digital natives, children navigating their first phones and anyone perpetually tethered to their devices. There is a way out. This is your invitation to scroll less, and to live more.

Five simple steps to save yourself, your family and the planet

Are you tired of failing to finish what you start? Intentional, from productivity expert Chris Bailey, is the motivational guide you need. 'A powerful guide to turning ambition into action' - Charles Duhigg, author of The Power of Habit and Supercommunicators Most of us have no problem setting goals. We know what we want, and we have a pretty good sense of what it takes to get it. But consistently making progress until we've reached that goal is the hard part. In Intentional, Chris Bailey, bestselling author of Hyperfocus, presents a new and better way to accomplish your goals. It turns out, the secret to finishing what you start isn't willpower or the latest productivity hack - it's intentionality. Your deepest intentions are your greatest motivating force. By structuring your goals around the things that matter most to you, whether that's feeling secure in your job, having autonomy over your decisions or being in a community, getting things done becomes second nature. Drawing from the latest productivity research and packed full of practical strategies, Intentional will show you how to:<ul><li>Structure goals to increase the likelihood of completion</li><li>Make unappealing, boring or frustrating tasks more attractive to do</li><li>Lower the chance of procrastinating</li><li>Create a system for tracking progress</li><li>Know when a goal isn't for you - and when it's time to let it go.</li></ul> With Chris Bailey as your guide, finishing what you start is more possible than you think. 'An important new contribution to the genre!' - Cal Newport, New York Times bestselling author of Slow Productivity and Deep Work 'The most productive man you'd ever hope to meet' - TED

Shortlisted for the Financial Times and Schroders Business Book of the Year Award How 1,000 years of global history show why technological and economic progress is often followed by stagnation and even collapse In How Progress Ends, Carl Benedikt Frey challenges the conventional belief that economic and technological progress is inevitable. For most of human history, stagnation was the norm, and even today progress and prosperity in the world's largest, most advanced economies--the United States and China--have fallen short of expectations. To appreciate why we cannot depend on any AI-fueled great leap forward, Frey offers a remarkable and fascinating journey across the globe, spanning the past 1,000 years, to explain why some societies flourish and others fail in the wake of rapid technological change. By examining key historical moments--from the rise of the steam engine to the dawn of AI--Frey shows why technological shifts have shaped, and sometimes destabilized, entire civilizations. He explores why some leading technological powers of the past--such as Song China, the Dutch Republic, and Victorian Britain--ultimately lost their innovative edge, why some modern nations such as Japan had periods of rapid growth followed by stagnation, and why planned economies like the Soviet Union collapsed after brief surges of progress. Frey uncovers a recurring tension in history: while decentralization fosters the exploration of new technologies, bureaucracy is crucial for scaling them. When institutions fail to adapt to technological change, stagnation inevitably follows. Only by carefully balancing decentralization and bureaucracy can nations innovate and grow over the long term--findings that have worrying implications for the United States, Europe, China, and other economies today. Through a rich narrative that weaves together history, economics, and technology, How Progress Ends reveals that managing the future requires us to draw the right lessons from the past.

A clear, nontechnical guide to why cryptocurrency exists, how it reshapes trust and money, and why it matters beyond speculation. How do we build trust in a digital world where institutions, platforms, and intermediaries increasingly mediate money, identity, and ownership? In Cryptocurrency and Blockchain, Marco Di Maggio offers an essential guide to cryptocurrencies and blockchains—two of the most misunderstood technological and economic transformations of the digital age. Rather than focusing on price charts, hype cycles, or programming details, Di Maggio explains why these technologies exist, what problems they attempt to solve, and why they matter for people who are not crypto insiders. Using plain language, analogies, and real-world examples, the book explains how cryptocurrencies reshape core concepts of money, property, markets, and governance. The author explores topics such as how and why Bitcoin is used as a financial fallback, what stablecoins are and how they have become critical infrastructure for global payments, and how NFTs introduced a new notion of ownership and identity on the internet. Written for curious readers, journalists, students, policymakers, and professionals, Cryptocurrency provides a conceptual framework for understanding crypto as infrastructure, not ideology—helping readers see past the noise to grasp the deeper forces reshaping money, trust, and coordination in the digital economy.

What nobody tells you about power, money, and winning in business There is a moment most executives recognize but rarely talk about. You're sitting in a meeting where the language is polite, the slide deck is professional, and everyone in the room knows someone is about to get destroyed. The budget. The team. The product. The career. They call it a strategic review. What it actually is? A knife fight with better lighting. Business isn't fair. Meritocracy is largely a fiction. The people who talk like sages are usually improvising behind the scenes, and the gap between the official version of how companies work and what actually happens inside them is exactly where careers are built-or quietly ended. The Trick Is Not Minding That It Hurts is the book that lives in that gap. It is a blunt, unsentimental field guide to how the system actually works and how to survive it without losing your sanity. After two decades inside the world's most competitive environments-including senior leadership roles at Facebook, Alibaba, and Expedia, followed by years in the private equity trenches-Lee McCabe has seen how power is built, how decisions are really made, and why the "official story" is often the most dangerous one to believe. If you are ready to stop being naive and start navigating the real world of business, this is your guide.

The Psychology of Leadership

A provocative exposé of how our attention, behavior, and desires have been co-opted by the “choice box”—a curated set of options that offer a false sense of agency while funneling us down pre-determined paths controlled by a select few Choice boxes are all around us, but chances are you’ve never noticed them. Every time you click on a recommended video, rate an Uber driver, run a Google search, or invest in your 401k, you may think you’re the one calling the shots—but in reality, you’re limited to making the choices that a corporation wants you to make. Today, structured decision-making governs our lives to such an extent that we hardly see it at all. But who designs these choices, and whose interests do they serve? In Choose Your Captivity, historian Eli Cook introduces readers to the choice architects who first built these boxes and trapped us inside—from the maze-building eugenicist who invented the multiple-choice test to the marketing gurus who sold off our supermarket shelves to a few ultra-processed food giants. In less than a generation, architects like these have transformed a handful of online platforms into the richest businesses in the world. And by determining our options, controlling our actions, and even shaping our identities, they have laid the groundwork&nbsp;for the winner-takes-all game of digital capitalism that dominates us today. In a society built around the promise of free choice and personal responsibility, Cook argues, these hidden architects might just have the greatest power of all. A propulsive and vivid history, Choose Your Captivity opens readers’ eyes to the immense power of the choice box—and how to escape it.

How Corporations Built Our Choices and Sold Our Freedom

Choose Your Captivity

This brilliantly counterintuitive manifesto from the founder of Miss Excel - who's helped more than 2 million professionals work smarter - shows how pairing opposites, like hustle and rest or logic and creativity, sparks exponential growth in your work and life.You've heard the advice again and again. Hustle harder. Optimise every minute. Stay relevant or get left behind. Learn the tools. Master the tech. Push through.But somewhere along the way, ambition turned into exhaustion, and productivity stopped feeling productive.Kat Norton knows this tension firsthand. After burning out in corporate consulting and later building Miss Excel into a multi-million-dollar education company reaching over 2 million people, she discovered a counterintuitive truth: Real growth doesn't come from choosing one side of a spectrum. It comes from pairing opposites so they amplify each other.In Your Untapped Edge, Kat introduces a practical, repeatable framework for navigating modern work by holding "both/and" instead of "either/or," including how to:Identify where you're overusing one approach - and what's missing on the other sideDesign workdays around energy, not just timePair technical skills with mindset and nervous-system regulationUse AI as an engine while keeping human judgment as the edge Hustle becomes sustainable when balanced with stillness. Productivity accelerates when paired with purpose. Logic sharpens when it collaborates with creativity. Even AI becomes more powerful when guided by human intuition. Kat calls this dynamic polarity - the practice of intentionally pairing opposites so they amplify one another. This creates the 1+1=3 effect, and it's the hidden multiplier behind exponential progress.Through practical tools, science-backed mindset practices, and real-world workplace examples, Kat shows you how to make your hustle more holistic, so you can manage your energy, make clearer decisions, and balance priorities in ways that lead to promotions, increased impact, and sustainable momentum.

Harness the Power of Opposites to Create Time, Prevent Burnout, and Excel in What Matters

Your Untapped Edge

From bestselling author Sean Covey, a revolutionary operating system that helps educators achieve their most wildly important goals by focusing on what matters most, even amid the daily whirlwind of urgent demands - based on the groundbreaking 4 Disciplines of Execution framework.

The 4 Disciplines of Execution (4DX) offers a proven framework that has helped thousands of schools worldwide break through this barrier to achieve their most important goals. This groundbreaking book shows educators at every level how to: - Focus on the one or two goals that will make the biggest difference, using the principle of 'less is more.' - Identify and act on high-leverage activities that predictably drive results. - Create visible, compelling score boarding that motivates students and staff. - Build a culture of shared accountability that gets everyone engaged in the goal. Through inspiring real-world examples - from improving graduation rates to dramatically boosting reading proficiency scores - the authors demonstrate how schools have used these four simple but powerful disciplines to achieve what once seemed impossible. Whether you're a headteacher, teacher or support staff member, this book provides the complete framework you need to cut through the daily chaos and consistently deliver on your most critical educational priorities. Based on timeless principles of human effectiveness and backed by years of successful implementation in schools globally, The 4 Disciplines of Execution for Educators&nbsp;is an essential operating system for any educator serious about turning their biggest goals into reality.

The 4 Disciplines of Execution for Educators

What if the key to success in a world of constant change was never really grit, or persistence - but curiosity? The modern era asks us to optimise ourselves into corners and build lives that run predictably while we stall inside. And the very blueprint we've been handed for success - one of relentless specialization - is not only incomplete, but completely counterproductive to a fulfilling life.Fusing groundbreaking research, elite business insights, and thrilling studies of history's greatest polymaths, Harvard educator Dr. T. Alexander Puutio uncovers the simple truth behind resilient, fulfilling lives: they're built in loops, not ladders.From Leonardo da Vinci to Steve Jobs, the people who shape the future don't follow straight lines - they explore widely, quit strategically, and stay flexible enough to keep becoming someone new.In a world that breaks ladders as fast as you can climb them, the code of curiosity offers a powerful model for thriving in uncertainty. Exploiting a loop of exploration, feedback and reinvention, curiosity is a force that supercharges our brain's capacity to learn and innovate. Those who can harness the cycle unlock not just a serious strategic edge, but a better way to cultivate a meaningful life.A joyful book that speaks to the meaning vacuum of modern life, The Curiosity Code upends the traditional pillars of self-development. Instead, it offers a bold, practical blueprint for navigating change, reclaiming agency, and building a life that evolves as fast as the world around you.
