Do you often feel short of time?
If yes, Cal Newport’s Digital Minimalism and Deep Work are the books you need to solve all your reasonable issues emanating from the shortage of time.
Most of us have got into this mindless habit of keeping ourselves so occupied that we have time for everyone and everything except ourselves.
Even the “contract” of free time has been allotted to social networking sites. As a result, self-thoughts remain elusive. All we are left with are the thoughts of others.
10 Best Deep Work Quotes from Cal Newport:—
1.
If you don’t produce, you won’t thrive — no matter how skilled or talented you are.
2.
You have a finite amount of willpower that becomes depleted as you use it. Your will, in other words, is not a manifestation of your character that you can deploy without limit; it’s instead like a muscle that tires.
3.
Once you’re wired for distraction, you crave it.
4.
Two Core Abilities for Thriving in the New Economy 1. The ability to quickly master hard things. 2. The ability to produce at an elite level, in terms of both quality and speed.
5.
When you work, work hard. When you’re done, be done.

6.
Hub-and-spoke-style arrangement: Expose yourself to ideas in hubs on a regular basis, but maintain a spoke in which to work deeply on what you encounter.
7.
Less mental clutter means more mental resources available for deep thinking.
8.
Busyness as Proxy for Productivity: In the absence of clear indicators of what it means to be productive and valuable in their jobs, many knowledge workers turn back toward an industrial indicator of productivity: doing lots of stuff in a visible manner.
9.
Whether you’re a writer, marketer, consultant, or lawyer: Your work is a craft, and if you hone your ability and apply it with respect and care, then like the skilled wheelwright you can generate meaning in the daily efforts of your professional life.
10.
Clarity about what matters provides clarity about what does not.
