Unhackable: The Elixir for Creating Flawless Ideas, Leveraging Superhuman Focus, and Achieving Optimal Human Performance
Human knowledge once doubled every thousand years.
Today, it’s every twelve hours. No wonder we can’t keep up!
Welcome to the Attention Economy—where you are the product. In this digital landscape, they keep score with eyeballs and eardrums. Your attention—even for a few seconds—translates into cold, hard cash they’re willing to manipulate and even hack you for.
The truth is, you’re getting hacked every day, and you don’t even realize it. A hack is when someone or something gains unauthorized access to a computer or a system. Want to know something scary? People can be hacked. It happens millions of times a day. Your focus is the prize—and they’ll hack you to get it.
Does this sound familiar? You cleared your schedule, woke up early, and informed your family and friends you’re unreachable. An entire day dedicated to finally working on your dream.
Buzz. Ring. Beep. Five minutes in, another disruption. Notifications flash across your screen. Focus. Where were you? Your phone vibrates. Now you crave a distraction and the dopamine fix. Scroll. Scroll. Who are you kidding? Productivity plummets. Morale declines. Your dream gets sidelined and sabotaged—yet again. Unless you’re Unhackable.
Better than money, power, or connections—Unhackable is the new secret weapon of super achievers—the ones who live their dreams.
Kary Oberbrunner made it his mission to discover if humans could become Unhackable. After a six-year exploration of neurobiology, art, science, technology, education, athletics, the military, and business, he emerged with an answer—the unmistakable elixir behind all idea achievement and productivity.

This book will change you, if you do the work
"Unhackable" is going to be on everyone's reading list very, very soon. Kary Oberbrunner's concept and integration of information combined with what's happening on a global scale is not only timely, it's a game-changer. Within the first few lessons (organized by days) in the book, I was already implementing changes to make better choices regarding my time, my energy and my productivity. These are real-life solutions to become "unhackable" in every aspect of life. I've found I'm assessing things differently now: I look at obstacles and distractions from a completely new point of view. I approach each day with more purpose and clarity. I've had breakthroughs on things I've been mulling over for months. I feel more in charge, more accountable, and truly feel I have ownership of my thoughts and my time. For anyone needing assistance on regaining control of your time, your energy, and your purpose, this book is an absolute must-read. It's already changing my life. Literally.
Tap into your hidden abilities and unique strengths.
This book has stretched my thinking. I’m better able to find out the answers to the questions “How far can I go?” and “Is this where I stop?” in an attempt to close the ever-widening gap between dreaming and doing. I especially like the approach of working through the obstacles holding most people back from realizing their dreams. The book helped me discover areas where my dreams were getting stifled.
Engaging and fast-paced
A compelling read to achieve optimal performance and attain the bigger goals we have set out for ourselves. This book can be applied to any area of our lives - personal and professional to create a meaningful life, kick the distraction, and awaken our truest potential. Unhackable gives you the pragmatic process of achieving your dreams without getting distracted. Highly recommended.
Great book!
I loved it. Written in a clear, and engaging style, this book walks the reader through a journey of self-discovery and growth. Very well done. Take the time to do the exercises and applications, which greatly increase the value of the knowledge.
Motivates and engages
I am halfway through participating in Unhackable. I say participating in rather than reading because this book is created to get you to engage and to specifically apply to your goal. The exercises are motivating and inspiring. They provide tangible steps to break through. I’m really glad to have gotten this book in my life.
Game Changer! Take Back Control of Your Life and Achieve Your Unique Purpose!
I have so many ideas, projects, commitments and Zoom meetings that I started to feel that I wasn't giving everything the attention it deserved. It felt like I was "calling it in" at times, which isn't me. At least, it didn't used to be. This book makes it clear that my brain was overloaded with input from the internet, juggling career and family business, and that my sagging productivity and failing memory aren't sign of age, but proof that I was hacked! There is so much in this book for every part of your life that systematically helps you to see where you are, identify where you want to go, and then set the action steps to get you there. As soon as I started taking control, tapping into FLOW (this is an amazing concept!), and eliminating distractions, my productivity soared. I'm still processing the possibilities. "Unhackable" is a total game-changer.
Couldn't be more timely!
This book is a movement. It's a mindset. A lifestyle. The author equips you from Day 1 (it's in days not chapters) to beginning taking back what is yours. He alerts you to many of the things hacking us and gives practical direction and inspiration for staying in your sweet spot—your flow as he calls it. People are tired of being run over by life and Unhackable provides a way to not only stand tall, but to stay productive, focused, and to actually live the life you were created for. I wasn't kidding about the movement, there is a huge list in the back of the book of Unhackable Coaches and the title is showing up everywhere as a hashtag. So the question is which direction will you move? Thanks for another great book, Kary Oberbrunner!
What distraction is costing you
In today's attention economy, distractions are costing you your dreams. We are getting hacked at every turn. If you're ready to take your time and attention back, Unhackable will equip you to do so.
WOW!!! This book is so timely!!
This book came at just the right time!! I highly recommend everyone read it, then give it to someone you love and have them read it (I know my teenagers are getting a copy!!) Our family just watched Social Dilemma and it's like this book is the handbook to go along with the movie on how to NOT get sucked in to this crazy world of distractions. It teaches us all how to live life and be UNHACKABLE!!
In 2020 the world GOT HACKED - We NEED this book now!
Kary Oberbrunner has tapped into the current state of our world with uncanny timing! He outlines the problem of our "everything is urgent" culture and offers incredibly helpful and practical solutions to reclaiming our time and our sense of power to create and choose for ourselves. As a mental health professional, I am particularly interested in the wealth of neuroscience research he provides in the book to give context to how our brain processes - or doesn't - the overwhelming amount of information we take in and the cost to people and relationships. This book is incredible and if you want to be UNHACKABLE even in the year 2020, run - don't walk - get your copy now!
