Break the Twitch: A Practical Guide to Minimalism, Intentional Living & Doing More of What Matters

By: Anthony Ongaro

Narrated by: Anthony Ongaro

Length: 1 hr and 41 mins

Publisher's summary

Every day, we make hundreds of small actions without even thinking about them. Pulling out our smartphones, clicking the one-click purchase button, pulling down to refresh the social media feed, and more. Automatic actions that have become so deeply programmed into our lives that we don't have the chance to stop and ask ourselves a very important question: Do I actually want to do this right now?

This book is all about taking a step back, identifying the Twitch - the impulsive, unproductive responses we have to discomfort - minimizing those distractions, kicking the clutter, and doing more of what matters.

awesome.. plus his youtube channel is great i

very good audio book. plus his youtube channel is awesome. 10/10 . i wish he had more

Just what I needed

I've been a fan of the blog and YouTube channel for a while now. Even though I'm familiar with the ideas presented, it didn't seem repetitive at all. much recommended!

Over All Very Good Book

Was very eye opening as to how our triggers cause our twitches (impulse spending) I had never heard my person behavior described so well. Has definitely made me recognize my impulse triggers and think twice about making a new purchase. Very glad I listened to this book, not once but twice so far and will listen several more times. Each time something new stands out that I glazed over the times before

Short and sweet

Enjoyed the author’s reading voice; the message was easy to digest and I was able to listen to it quickly. Definitely enjoyed it and how it made me evaluate my own life.

Are you distracted? Want to accomplish your goals? Read this.

This is a quick and easy starter book to understanding our daily distractions in our modern world and how to limit them to live a more fulfilling life. Don't feel guilty, start with a small step toward your happy place being your daily reality before you know it.

Add this to your collection and if your like me, listen to it weekly or twice a month to take advantage of all the advice and see how far you have come.

I am already seeing my twitches, eliminating them and I am shocked at how many times I do things out of habit and all time and energy I have wasted on them.

So excited to use all my extra time on what is truly important.
Thanks for the great "read".

Short listen but well written, read, and practical

The author does a great job at bringing common sense solutions to the valid real world issues of impulsive spending, consumerism, and time management. It's a short listen but less is definitely more with this one.

Good Listen

This was worth the money on a concept of the twitch. I have not heard it phrased this way before.
