One of the most valuable skills in our economy is becoming increasingly rare. If you master this skill, you'll achieve extraordinary results. Deep Work will show you how.
'Deep work' is the ability to focus without distraction on a cognitively demanding task. It will make you better at what you do, enable you to achieve more in less time and provide the sense of true fulfilment that comes from the mastery of a skill.
In short, deep work is like a superpower in our increasingly competitive economy.
Developing a deep work practice is one of the best decisions you can make, and yet most people have lost the ability to go deep - spending their days instead in a frantic blur of email and social media, not even realising there's a better way.
This life-changing book presents a mix of cultural criticism, compelling manifesto and immediately actionable advice for cultivating your focus and achieving success across all aspects of life.
Deep Work is an indispensable guide to thriving in a distracted world.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Many modern knowledge workers now spend most of their brain power battling distraction and interruption, whether because of 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, after all, 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, and now, 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 the fields of technology, science and culture, and their deep work habits, Newport shares an inspiring collection of tools to wring every last drop of value out of 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. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Artikel-Nr. GOR007312096
