Too much detail...but some great big-picture ideas. Worth the quick read.

It teaches us about the importance of hyper focus as well as scatter focus. If are always anxious about being more productive and consider resting as a time waste. You must read this book. It will give you deep insights.

Finished this with about 90 minutes to spare in #SuperSeptember, hitting my goal of 4 books finished!

I'm not convinced this needed an entire book - it could have just been a long form article. Because if you're picking up this book, you're already bought into the idea you don't want to spend 1/3 of this book being preached to about the value of deep work. The examples also very much skew to white men, a little more diversity is needed.

Andrew65 Well done 👏👏👏 8mo

I struggle with distraction. It wasn't great before 2020, but doomscrolling made it so much worse. I've made some attempts: todo lists, focus blocks, inbox zero, prioritized lists, to mixed success. Deep work has clicked for me. I think the focus on shallow, vs deep work, being intentional with your time, and what you're planning for, is really what's new about this for me.

A great anthology of articles for creatives. Some resonated with me more than others, but there were elements of each that I could relate to in some way.

I also appreciated the almost analytical approach that some of the authors took when explaining their creative routine; a "first pants, then shoes" type of structure .
