Deep Work
Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World
by Cal Newport
4/5
Grand Central Publishing 304 pages January 4, 2016
Cal Newport flips the narrative on open office plans and constant connectivity. Deep work is the ability to focus without distraction on a cognitively demanding task — and it's becoming both increasingly rare and increasingly valuable.
Jim's Review
🐛
Jim turned off all notifications, burrowed deep into his tunnel, and read this cover to cover in one sitting. Newport makes a compelling case that focus is the new superpower. The practical strategies actually work — Jim's been doing "deep burrows" every morning since. Highly recommended for anyone drowning in shallow work.
