Alpha Minds

Divided into two parts, Deep Work first makes the case that in almost any profession, cultivating a deep work ethic will produce massive benefits. Next, the book presents a rigorous training regimen, shown as a series of four “rules” for transforming your mind and habits to support this skill. Newport promises, “One of the most valuable skills in our economy is becoming increasingly rare. If you master this skill, you’ll achieve extraordinary results.” A mix of cultural criticism and actionable advice, Deep Work takes the reader on a journey through memorable stories – from Carl Jung building a stone tower in the woods to focus his mind to a social media pioneer buying a round trip business class ticket to Tokyo to write a book while on flight and free from distraction – and no-nonsense advice such as the claim that most serious professionals should quit social media and that you should practice being bored.
