Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World
by Cal Newport
Many modern knowledge workers spend most of their brain power battling distraction and interruption, whether due to the incessant pinging of devices, noisy open-plan offices, or the difficulty of deciding what deserves your attention the most.
When Cal Newport coined the term 'deep work' on his popular blog, Study Hacks, in 2012, he found the concept quickly hit a nerve. Most of us are excruciatingly familiar with shallow work instead—distractedly skimming the surface of our workload and never getting to the important part.
Newport began exploring the methods and mindset that foster a practice of distraction-free productivity at work. In DEEP WORK, he shows how anyone can achieve this elusive state. Through revealing portraits of both historical and modern-day thinkers, academics, and leaders in technology, science, and culture, Newport shares an inspiring collection of tools to maximize your intellectual capacity.
He explains why mastering this shift in work practices is crucial for anyone who intends to stay ahead in a complex information economy and how to systematically train the mind to focus. Put simply, developing and cultivating a deep work practice is one of the best decisions we can make in an increasingly distracted world.
