It delves into the eight ideas that seem most important in expanding your efficiency and demonstrates how you can connect these ideas to become smarter, faster, and better at everything you do. “Smarter Faster Better” by Charles Duhigg is a book about how to recognize these choices that fuel true productivity. Smarter Faster Better is a story-filled exploration of the science of productivity, one that can help us learn to succeed with less stress and struggle-and become smarter, faster, and better at everything we do.Most people think that productivity is about “working more or sweating harder.” As it happens, nothing could be further from the truth than that: rather than being simply “a product of spending longer hours at your desk or making bigger sacrifices,” productivity is “about making certain choices in certain ways.” They view the world, and their choices, in profoundly different ways.
Drawing on the latest findings in neuroscience, psychology, and behavioral economics-as well as the experiences of CEOs, educational reformers, four-star generals, FBI agents, airplane pilots, and Broadway songwriters-this book reveals that the most productive people, companies, and organizations don’t merely act differently. In Smarter Faster Better, he applies the same relentless curiosity and rich storytelling to how we can improve at the things we do.Īt the core of Smarter Faster Better are eight key concepts-from motivation and goal setting to focus and decision making-that explain why some people and companies get so much done. In The Power of Habit, Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist Charles Duhigg explained why we do what we do.
“Duhigg melds cutting-edge science, deep reporting, and wide-ranging stories to give us a fuller, more human way of thinking about how productivity actually happens.”-Susan Cain, author of Quiet
