Deep Work is an indispensable guide to anyone seeking focused success in a distracted world. He then presents a rigorous training regimen, presented as a series of four 'rules,' for transforming your mind and habits to support this skill.Ī mix of cultural criticism and actionable advice, Deep Work takes the reader on a journey through memorable stories-from Carl Jung building a stone tower in the woods to focus his mind, to a social media pioneer buying a round-trip business class ticket to Tokyo to write a book free from distraction in the air-and no-nonsense advice, such as the claim that most serious professionals should quit social media and that you should practice being bored. Dividing this book into two parts, he first makes the case that in almost any profession, cultivating a deep work ethic will produce massive benefits.

Instead of arguing distraction is bad, he instead celebrates the power of its opposite. In Deep Work, author and professor Cal Newport flips the narrative on impact in a connected age. And yet, most people have lost the ability to go deep-spending their days instead in a frantic blur of e-mail and social media, not even realizing there's a better way. In short, deep work is like a super power in our increasingly competitive twenty-first century economy.

Deep Work will make you better at what you do and provide the sense of true fulfillment that comes from craftsmanship. It's a skill that allows you to quickly master complicated information and produce better results in less time.
