The secret to productivity isn’t discipline. It’s joy.

We have all been told that the secret to productivity is simple: work harder. The trouble is, endless hard work doesn’t just make us unhappier – it makes us less productive too.

Here, Dr Ali Abdaal draws on the latest scientific research to show that the most productive people aren’t those with the strongest discipline, or even the best habits: they’re the ones who find meaning in the tasks before them. Along the way, he sketches out a healthier, happier path to accomplishing what matters – one rooted in discovering joy in everything you do.

'The master of productivity.' Steven Bartlett, creator of Diary of a CEO

'The book we've all been waiting for.' Dr Julie Smith, author of Why Has Nobody Told Me This Before?

'Will guide you to accomplish more than you ever dreamed of.' Jay Shetty, author of Think Like a Monk and 8 Rules of Love

Critic Reviews

This book will free you from the guilt and shame of feeling like you're not doing enough and guide you to accomplish more than you ever dreamed of. (JAY SHETTY, author of Think Like a Monk and 8 Rules of Love)

Ali’s superpower is his ability to distill information in a fun and engaging way . . . More than anything Feel Good Productivity has been a guide that’s given me more clarity and self-awareness.

Ali is the master of productivity. Nobody has a talent for distilling complicated ideas into fun, accessible and actionable insights quite like him. (STEVEN BARTLETT, creator of Diary of a CEO)

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?)

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)

Very good. Ali trained as a doctor and really researches his stuff . . . If you are stuck in a job you hate, or are finding it hard to get up any enthusiasm for tasks, then Feel-Good Productivity might be the book for you . . . Ali does not suggest that we blindly aim to do more — or try to become much more efficient. That way, unhappiness and burnout lie.

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)

Productivity doesn't have to be toxic. Ali is rewriting what we thought we knew about getting stuff done. You can indeed be both happy and successful. (DR ALEX GEORGE, author of Live Well Every Day and The Mind Manual)

Utterly unlike the grumpy, besuited psychology gurus you're used to, Ali is the cheerful, optimistic productivity teacher the world sorely needs. Now, he has drawn upon his singularly engaging style to create a book that will change you for the better. A must-read! (MO GAWDAT, former Chief Business Officer, Google X, author of Solve for Happy and Scary Smart)

Ali's approach to productivity is exceptional and life-changing. This is a must-read if you want to experience the power of productivity in a whole new way. (Professor WILL MACASKILL, University of Oxford, author of What We Owe the Future and Doing Good Better)

I love Ali and his videos on YouTube, I was reading the physical copy of the book as I was listening to the audiobook. Some concepts really were interesting and I will be revisiting them. I felt like lots of problems I tend to face and how you can try to overcome them have been mentioned here, which was really nice. Also loved the tagline of the book
