About this listen
"Abdaal's enthusiastic narration resonates, inspiring listeners to become amateur productivity scientists. Informative, motivational, and entertaining, this audiobook delivers an enlightening perspective on productivity."—AudioFile
This program is read by the author.
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 and 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 audiobook, Ali reveals how the science of feel-good productivity can transform your life. He introduces the three hidden "energizers" 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 fulfillment. 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.
A Macmillan Audio production from Celadon Books.

Why do some products get more word of mouth than others? Why does some online content go viral? Word of mouth makes products, ideas, and behaviors catch on. It's more influential than advertising and far more effective. Can you create word of mouth for your product or idea? According to Berger, you can. Whether you operate a neighborhood restaurant, a corporation with hundreds of employees, or are running for a local office for the first time, the steps that can help your product or idea become viral are the same.

Misleading Title and a Sporadic Journey

What the critics say
‘A much-needed antidote to hustle culture, this book is a reality check for any ambitious person who wants to build sustainable success. It offers the most practical approach to productivity that no one says yet all of us need to hear.’—Mark Manson, author of The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F*ck
‘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
‘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?
I started implementing small and big changes in my life while listening to Feel-Good Productivity and it has already contributed greatly to my life. I absolutely recommend Ali Abdaal’s book to anyone who consider themselves a hustler.
Got what I needed, not what I thought I needed
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
well, this book is different. I have been watching Ali Abdaal's channel since 2018 and you can see that he has put as much effort into this book as he does in his videos.
He walks you through the entire process and gives you some a series of small experiments you can implement.
It is divided into three parts, namely: how to get started (Energisers), how to stop procrastination (unblock), and how to be motivated along the way (sustain).
And the best thing is that he encourages you to have fun along the way. Productivity should not be a chore but something you enjoy.
