UnHack Your Mind

Short readings on the things that actually get in the way — read aloud, in a real voice, by the person who chose the books.

Most self-help asks you to read a book you will not finish. This is built the other way round: a few minutes at a time, spoken, each reading drawn from a book worth reading, with the source named so you can go to it yourself if something lands.

It exists because there is a lot of good thinking on how to live, and almost none of it reaches the person who needs it on a Tuesday evening.

What it covers

  1. Hope — and why it is a skill rather than a mood
  2. Purpose — finding one that survives contact with a normal week
  3. What is true, and who to trust
  4. Anxiety — what it is for, and what to do with it
  5. What is going right — noticing it, which is harder than it sounds
  6. Habits — the seven, and the one that matters most
  7. The road less travelled

Plus, eventually, the part the name promises: how attention gets engineered, and what to do about it.

It is in private testing. A handful of people are going through it and telling me what is missing, what is too long, and what sounds like a lecture. That is exactly the stage where that feedback is worth the most, so it is not open to everyone yet.

Want a look?

If you know me and you would like to try it — or you would rather wait and hear when it is finished — just ask.
