Deep work. Concentrati al massimo. Quattro regole per ritrovare il focus sulle attività davvero importanti
Acquistalo
Sinossi
Le attività a massima concentrazione sono quelle che richiedono di lavorare con un focus totale a compiti che richiedono un profondo sforzo cognitivo. Dedicarci a queste ci rende più produttivi, ci consente di ottenere risultati significativi in minor tempo e ci dà un maggior senso di appagamento. Nel mondo iperconnesso di oggi, abbiamo perso la capacità di focalizzarci su queste attività, favorendo quelle più superficiali e più dispersive (come controllare compulsivamente le email). In questo libro Cal Newport ci insegna come ritrovare una concentrazione profonda, creativa, che ci aiuti a dedicarci veramente a quello che stiamo facendo. Dopo aver sviscerato il problema con la sua prosa elegante e il suo rigore scientifico, Newport condivide le quattro semplici regole alla base del suo stesso successo che possono cambiare per sempre le nostre abitudini e la nostra vita.

Overview: the thesis is that deep work is both rare and valuable in todays world. That's about 1/3 of the book. The rest of the book is practical advice on how to pursue deep work. Part of me feels like a lot of what was said in the book is common sense. Particularly things that people know but can't Leggi tutto

I would suggest starting with "So Good They Can't Ignore You" and then read "Deep Work." They compliment each other. The first helps you sort out what you should be focusing on, and the s Leggi tutto
Worth reading. Helped me make some drastic changes in my schedule. I will post an update how these changes went after six months. What I learned: (spoiler alerts) 1. Figure out what is most valuable to your success. 2. Spend most of the time on it, mostly in the early hours of your day where your atten Leggi tutto
File under - Shallow writing that should have been a blogpost at best. This book is mostly random commentary on other people's work and content. Almost nothing is original and no studies have been conducted by the author himself. The author's contribution is simply - this researcher found this, I do Leggi tutto
A shallow, poor quality book about deep work. The central idea is about scheduling distraction free blocks of time to help you reach a state of flow with your work so you can achieve more. The useful content could be summed up in about 10 pages. The rest of it is mind-numbing padding. For a guy who
I kind of have been procrastinating a lot lately, even my reading has fallen off, this social distancing and shut down has really torpedoed my routines so reading this feels timely and a good reminder of the need to prioritize and cut out superfluous activities. I'm not sure that this book needed to Leggi tutto
This had a lot of valuable ideas about the importance of deep work and how to do it. Most people are going to buy into this concept easily enough, but Cal did a nice job further arguing it with some examples, various research, and so on...but this book also felt like a very good 100-page book that w Leggi tutto
