 How to Achieve Four Hours of "Deep Work" Each Day - InsideHook

about 60% of the average employee’s time is spent doing “shallow work.” What is that, exactly? It’s the busywork: the email-combing, the meetings about meetings, the unresolved notes on nearly done decks. It’s the morning stuff that torpedoes most of your afternoons.

The answer is “deep work,” a term coined back in 2016 by Cal Newport, a computer science professor at Georgetown University. Asana defines it as “a state of peak concentration that lets you learn hard things and create quality work quickly.” According to Newport, who’s written a book on the subject, and regularly advocates for digital minimalism as way to mitigate the self-damning impacts of what he calls the “the hyperactive hive mind,” deep work is the brain at its best.
