Deep Work by Cal Newport
"Deep work at a glance:

📌Periodic isolation —week/days/hours (for reading, thinking, new ideas)

� Quit (or at least strictly manage) social media

� Go online when you have a reason! (Make a list)

� 4-hour work/concentration law (+ cheat-hour)

� Have a routine

� Have a ritual

� Pomodoro technique

✅Have deadlines: shorter than anticipated

� Let others know about your personal routine/isolation

✅Combining an activity which doesn’t need much mental effort (e.g. walking) with analyzing/thinking deeply about a specific problem

Truly amazing! Such a nicely written, balanced technical as well as anecdotal style of writing. I felt like Cal was having a deep conversation with me. Makes you reflect on things - the urgency of doing everything, the bad habit of saying yes to everything, and ultimately leaving no time for "true, deep work". ]]>
