My Review

"I like Carl Newport and his ideas are generally quite interesting although I find them hard to follow in their entirety. This is definitely something I aspire to and everytime I give it a shot, even part of it, it genuinely makes a real difference."

What I Liked

  • It’s promoting putting your phone away and focussing, multi-tasking is a myth. I like that idea.

What I Disliked

  • It’s a little impractical sometimes.

Key Takeaways

  • Think about evaluating your work on a longer horizon
  • Work at a natural pace
