Attention by Design is a powerful framework for reclaiming your most valuable resource—your focus—in a world designed to fragment it. Drawing from personal rediscovery and psychological insight, Kenyan author Kevin Sila explores how “digital patterns” like dopamine drips and surveillance culture quietly shape our minds and erode our presence.

Moving beyond the “quiet restlessness” of constant connectivity, this book offers a practical “middle path” to mastering your digital ecosystem. You will learn to move from a “scattered mind” to “designed coherence,” turning technology into your servant instead of your master. It is an essential manual for anyone seeking to rediscover the “joy of the unshared moment” and build a sustainable home for the mind in a fragmented world.

Description
Your attention is the most valuable thing you own. It is the currency of your consciousness. But in an age of “dopamine drips” and endless scrolling, are you the one designing it—or is the algorithm?

 

We live in the most connected time in history, yet we exist as a “Silent Crowd”—physically shoulder-to-shoulder in matatus and living rooms, but mentally fragmented by an invisible barrier of screens. We have mistaken the chatter of strangers for the wisdom of ancestors, leaving us with a “quiet ache” and a restlessness we can’t quite name.

 

Attention By Design is part reflection and part rebellion. It is an intimate invitation to remember how to be human again in a world designed to make us forget. Kenyan author Kevin Sila reveals the mechanics of the “slot machine in your pocket” and provides a powerful framework to turn technology into your servant instead of your master.

 

Through these pages, you will discover how to:

 

• Master the Dopamine Loop: Understand how digital patterns rewire your brain and how to reclaim your focus.

 

• Architect a “Home for the Mind”: Design physical and digital environments that support deep work and internal peace.

 

• Find the Joy of the Unshared Moment: Reclaim experiences that belong only to you in a culture that demands everything be “content”.

 

• Use Movement as Medicine: Harness physical discipline to heal a scattered mind and build emotional resilience.

 

The world doesn’t wait for your posts; it waits for your presence. It is time to put down the screen, take an unshared breath, and find the way back to depth

Nudge by Richard H. Thaler and Cass R. Sunstein

,
KShs2,890.00 KShs2,500.00
Every day, we make decisions on topics ranging from personal investments to schools for our children to the meals we eat to the causes we champion. Unfortunately, we often choose poorly. The reason, the authors explain, is that, being human, we all are susceptible to various biases that can lead us to blunder. Our mistakes make us poorer and less healthy; we often make bad decisions involving education, personal finance, health care, mortgages and credit cards, the family, and even the planet itself. Thaler and Sunstein invite us to enter an alternative world, one that takes our humanness as a given. They show that by knowing how people think, we can design choice environments that make it easier for people to choose what is best for themselves, their families, and their society. Using colorful examples from the most important aspects of life, Thaler and Sunstein demonstrate how thoughtful "choice architecture” can be established to nudge us in beneficial directions without restricting freedom of choice. Nudge offers a unique new take—from neither the left nor the right—on many hot-button issues, for individuals and governments alike. This is one of the most engaging and provocative books to come along in many years.

What the Dog Saw by Malcolm Gladwell

,
KShs1,890.00 KShs1,590.00
What is the difference between choking and panicking? Why are there dozens of varieties of mustard but only one variety of ketchup? What do football players teach us about how to hire teachers? What does hair dye tell us about the history of the 20th century? In the past decade, Malcolm Gladwell has written three books that have radically changed how we understand our world and ourselves: The Tipping Point, Blink, and Outliers. Now, in What the Dog Saw, he brings together, for the first time, the best of his writing from The New Yorker over the same period. Here you'll find the bittersweet tale of the inventor of the birth control pill, and the dazzling creations of pasta sauce pioneer Howard Moscowitz. Gladwell sits with Ron Popeil, the king of the American kitchen, as he sells rotisserie ovens, and divines the secrets of Cesar Millan, the "dog whisperer" who can calm savage animals with the touch of his hand. He explores intelligence tests and ethnic profiling and why it was that employers in Silicon Valley once tripped over themselves to hire the same college graduate.

Secrets of the Millionaire Mind by T. Harv Eker

,
KShs1,600.00 KShs1,490.00
Secrets of the Millionaire Mind reveals the missing link between wanting success and achieving it! Have you ever wondered why some people seem to get rich easily, while others are destined for a life of financial struggle? Is the difference found in their education, intelligence, skills, timing, work habits, contacts, luck, or their choice of jobs, businesses, or investments? The shocking answer is: None of the above! In his groundbreaking Secrets of the Millionaire Mind, T. Harv Eker states: "Give me five minutes, and I can predict your financial future for the rest of your life!" Eker does this by identifying your "money and success blueprint." We all have a personal money blueprint ingrained in our subconscious minds, and it is this blueprint, more than anything, that will determine our financial lives. You can know everything about marketing, sales, negotiations, stocks, real estate, and the world of finance, but if your money blueprint is not set for a high level of success, you will never have a lot of money—and if somehow you do, you will most likely lose it! The good news is that now you can actually reset your money blueprint to create natural and automatic success. Secrets of the Millionaire Mind is two books in one. Part I explains how your money blueprint works. Through Eker's rare combination of street smarts, humor, and heart, you will learn how your childhood influences have shaped your financial destiny. You will also learn how to identify your own money blueprint and "revise" it to not only create success but, more important, to keep and continually grow it.In Part II you will be introduced to seventeen "Wealth Files," which describe exactly how rich people think and act differently than most poor
