Scarcity Brain presents a stunning new framework for breaking our worst habits—from overeating and overbuying to spending too much time on our phone or watching TV. You’ll learn how to:
- Detect hidden scarcity cues to stop cravings before they start, from a brilliant slot machine designer in a Las Vegas casino laboratory
- Turn alone time into the ultimate happiness hack, from Benedictine monks who live in silence in the mountains of New Mexico
- Reignite your exploration gene for a more exciting and fulfilling life, from an astronaut onboard the International Space Station
- Reframe how we think about and fix addiction and bad habits, from Iraq’s chief psychiatrist
- Recognize when you have enough, from a woman who left a million-dollar career path to adventure the world
Our world is overloaded with everything we’re built to crave and over-consume. The fix isn’t to blindly aim for less. It’s to understand why we crave more in the first place, shake our worst habits, and use what we already have better. Then we can experience life in a new way—a more satisfying way.
