One book I’ve come back to a few times the past few years is Cal Newport’s “Deep Work.” For those of you not familiar with the term, “deep work” is focused work without distractions. Basically, instead of just doing “shallow work” - emails, talking upon talking, etc. – deep work is something that requires you to actually think & create. I strongly believe it’s one of the missing pieces to avoid being overwhelmed by the waves of uncertainty of our times.
Also a fan of Cal Newport and pomodoros! I even created an app (HeyToday.co) that helps me plan my day so I can prioritize deep work while still having peace of mind knowing I have time to rest and play set aside. The app still needs some love, but has helped me plan better days. Flow State by Bobby Lyte on Spotify is also a very helpful resource.
