We all know the feeling of digital exhaustion. 
 
The aimless scrolling, eyes glazing over at the screen. The feeling that no matter how many messages we respond to, how many posts we read, or how much data we sort through, we can never stay ahead of it. 
 
Digital Exhaustion shows us how we can reimagine our relationship with our digital tools. 
 
Digital transformation expert and Professor, Paul Leonardi, argues that our exhaustion comes from the “exhaustion triad;” that is, the way that our tools change how we pay attention, how we attribute behaviours and intentions to others, and how we experience our emotions. 
 
By creating new habits around our use of technologies, we can set up boundaries so they stop depleting us so quickly. Follow these eight rules to regain control of your life:<ul><li>Rule #1: Stop Using Half Your Tools.</li><li>Rule #2: Make a Match.</li><li>Rule #3: Batch and Stream.</li><li>Rule #4: Wait. One Hour. One Day. One Week.</li><li>Rule #5: Don’t Assume.</li><li>Rule #6: Always Be Intentional.</li><li>Rule #7: Learn to See Around Corners.</li><li>Rule #8: Be Here, Not There.</li></ul>Discover the life-changing guide to using your digital devices in surprising new ways to help you beat exhaustion and find new sources of energy.

This is not a book about business strategy. Strategy changes like the seasons. 
This is a book about something much more permanent.

These are the fundamental laws that will ensure excellence. 
 
They are rooted in psychology and behavioral science, are based on the wisdom of tens of thousands of people I've surveyed across every continent and age group, and of course, drawn from the conversations I've had on my chart-topping podcast with the world's most successful people. 
 
These laws will work now or in 100 years from now. Are you ready to get started?

The Power of Knowing When to Walk Away

Berthold Gunster

'Transformative... Flip Thinking beautifully illustrates how a person who can turn a negative into a positive can never be defeated' - Greg McKeown, podcaster and bestselling author of Essentialism and Effortless 
 
 
Imagine this: you've got a great idea, and all you hear are the yes-buts. "Yes, but that's been tried before, and it didn't work." "Yes, but shouldn't we just let it sit for a while?" "Yes, but what if it doesn't work..." 
 
Stop saying "yes, but..." to life, and to start saying "yes, and..." 
 
This international bestseller introduces the power of flip thinking to transform stuck-in-the-mud, pessimistic 'yes, but' thinking into an inventive, curious 'yes, and' mindset. 
 
Berthold Gunster presents his fifteen flip thinking strategies that will transform your thinking away from limitations and threats and towards possibilities and opportunities. From disrupting (turn all the rules upside down), to flaunting (play up what you want to hide), and importing (get the enemy on board) to amplifying (focus on what works, and do more of that) Gunster's strategies and stories will have you approaching even the most challenging problems, at work, home and at play, in a whole new way.

What if the most serious personal and global challenges won't be solved with more thinking or talking?

Drawing on lessons from neuroscience, philosophy, business, politics, activism, and the arts, Golden teaches us how to go beyond the ordinary rules and offers tools of mindfulness to help individuals, organisations and whole societies dial down the noise and reclaim pristine quiet. 
 
Quietly profound and constantly surprising, Golden is a field guide to finding silence.
