This summer, we've been reading Digital Minimalism by Cal Newport.

I read this book last summer and I loved coming back to some of the concepts and ideas he shares. I like his research-y writing approach and the things he includes from other fields to help us contemplate our relationship with digital media and social media platforms and the way we use technology.

Here are six topics worth contemplating.
