Ep. 94 | Master Your Craft and Embrace Deep Work with Cal Newport

The latest Academy episode features one of my favorite authors, researchers, and bloggers — Cal Newport.

Cal is the author of five books and runs the popular advice blog, Study Hacks, which attempts to decode "patterns of success" in both school and the working world. His contrarian ideas on building a successful, meaningful life have been featured on TV, radio, and in many major publications, including the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, and New York Post.

His book Deep Work changed the way I operate in life and business and has easily become one of my most gifted books to help master a craft, cut out the noise and move forward in life.

The truth is: most people won’t love the book because we’re addicted to social media, multitasking, and distraction. Yet Cal argues that in a world where Deep Work is becoming rarer — it’s also becoming increasingly valuable.

During this value-rich, inspiring conversation — you’ll discover the definition of deep work, why you need to embrace it, Cal’s discovery and implementation of it, the power of disconnecting, re-charging and focusing and so much more.

You’ll also learn that Deep Work is a skill and a muscle you and I can work on every single day, how to embrace boredom and the benefits of living a deep life.
