Ep. 236: Hacking Remote Work
Deep Questions with Cal Newport
Ideas to Improve Your Remote Job
By doing things really well, you gain the ability to work in a more idiosyncratic way. However, if you're not performing well, you lose that flexibility. By working hard and achieving excellence, you can take control of your career and shape it to fit your full life. Instead of just working harder for promotions and more money, you should focus on what you truly want. It's important to have a broader view and not just think about earning more or gaining prestige. The speaker suggests five ideas to improve your remote job: create synchrony traps, control meeting availability, sell your processes, trade accountability for accessibility, and focus on crushing one thing per month. By implementing these ideas, you can significantly decrease the number of hours you spend dedicated to your remote job during the standard workday.
