The chapter opens with a description of the rather loud topic of the day work week which I will probably devote a separate article to someday. The author shows how this approach was introduced in Basecamp and what the effects were. Shortening the working time allowed for the elimination of shallow tasks without any drop in efficiency. Importantly the author points out that it is not possible to completely eliminate shallow activities.
Certain activities e.g. reading e mails cannot be completely eliminated from work. However they can be limited. The author also points out that it is impossible toPhone Number List work deeply all the time. The capabilities of the human mind are limited and long work reduces them. The trick is to properly arrange your daily schedule to make the most of it i.e. not to burn your time on shallow activities. By planning your day you will not only be able to do more but you will also be aware of how much time a given activity takes you.
The second step is to identify shallow activities. The third step is to determine how much time per day you can devote to shallow work so that you know how many shallow activities should be eliminated from your daily schedule. A habit that the author practices and of which I am a huge supporter is finishing work at a specific time. Newport will call this rule the Productivity Rule of a Fixed Daily Schedule . Newport points out that this is one of the most important habits that help with deep work. Another recommendation Newport gives is to make contact with you difficult.
