aha probably yes, it's more a synthesis of things i've read, heard and personnal experiences, but i surely picked from that great book ^^
for the distraction free space, and also the main goal/ big picture i'd say
I've read it, it's an amazing book, currently reading deep work.
I definitely agree, thanks for the tips btw.
ugh... deep work was not a good book for me
Why not?
I think it's directed more towards lads who are into tech perhaps
because the ideas he wrote weren't new for me, so in that regard i didn't learn alot, plus the main down point is his writing style, too focused on the status output of productivity and so damn condescending
Ahhh i personally am liking the book, i like how he divided it into two parts . And the evidence he provides for his methods helps.
I'm yet to read the third book James recommended though
well he sure makes a good point to why deep work is important and how productivity is not that shallow "busy" outward, but i honestly think Cal Newport just tried to fill pages at some point, to make it more of a book length and not a detailed blogpost (which probably would've been better in my opinion)
I personally think its a book filled with advice and evidence to prove that advice works. to each his own
have u read the third book james recommended? @worn heath
i haven't aha, my tbr is too big at the moment, i'll get to read it later ^^
What's tbr? To be read?
Do u use goodreads?, I'd recommend u to use it, it's really good.
yes yes tbr is the neverending list and piles of books to read ahaha
i do nowadays to keep me motivated on reading more for myself, it gets addicting and but it's not high pressure
2nd most useful thread fr ๐
I relate to that loll
I'm reading a book a week this year. So far it's been going good. The problem rises when I start reading multiple at the same time lol.
I relate to that as well
When I followed James on there, i got to know people like him as well. It's a pretty good website I'm ngl
