Deep Work and the Digital Workplace
Deep work is at a severe disadvantage in a technopoly because it builds on values like quality, craftsmanship, and mastery that are decidedly old-fashioned and nontechnological. Even worse, to support deep work often requires the rejection of much of what is new and high-tech.
from Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World by Cal Newport
- Deep work is like a super power in our increasingly competitive twenty-first century economy. 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.
from Cal Newport, New York Times Bestselling Author of Seven Books by Cal Newport
