"Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World" von Cal Newport ist ein Sachbuch, das sich mit der Bedeutung und den Techniken des tiefen Arbeitens beschäftigt.

Das Buch ist in zwei Teile gegliedert. Im ersten Teil erklärt Newport das Konzept des "Deep Work" und warum es für persönlichen und beruflichen Erfolg entscheidend ist. Er beschreibt die Unterschiede zwischen oberflächlicher und tiefer Arbeit und führt Beispiele von erfolgreichen Personen an, die durch tiefes Arbeiten herausragende Ergebnisse erzielt haben. Im zweiten Teil bietet Newport praktische Regeln und Strategien an, um tiefes Arbeiten in den eigenen Alltag zu integrieren. Dazu gehören Methoden zur Minimierung von Ablenkungen, Techniken zum Aufbau von Konzentrationsphasen sowie Tipps zur Optimierung der Arbeitsumgebung. Er betont die Wichtigkeit der Disziplin bei der Umsetzung dieser Techniken. Insgesamt liefert "Deep Work" einen überzeugenden Leitfaden für alle, die ihre Produktivität steigern und in einer ablenkungsreichen Welt erfolgreich sein möchten. [...]

Deep Work
One of the most valuable skills in our economy is becoming increasingly rare. If you master this skill, you'll achieve extraordinary results. Deep Work is an indispensable guide to anyone seeking focused success in a distracted world. 'Cal Newport is exceptional in the realm of self-help authors' New York Times 'Deep work' is the ability to focus without distraction on a cognitively demanding task. Coined by author and professor Cal Newport on his popular blog Study Hacks, deep work will make you better at what you do, let you achieve more in less time and provide the sense of true fulfilment that comes from the mastery of a skill. In short, deep work is like a superpower in our increasingly competitive economy. And yet most people, whether knowledge workers in noisy open-plan offices or creatives struggling to sharpen their vision, have lost the ability to go deep - spending their days instead in a frantic blur of email and social media, not even realising there's a better way. 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 free from distraction in the air -- and surprising suggestions, such as the claim that most serious professionals should quit social media and that you should practice being bored. Put simply: developing and cultivating a deep work practice is one of the best decisions you can make in an increasingly distracted world. This book will point the way. [...]
