Add to your grocery list. Press \u201cbuy\u201d on an online shopping cart. Reserve a table for this weekend. All of these are things many of us do at the same time\u2014and all too often while we\u2019re doing something else, like working.<\/p>\n<p>Newport described the drawbacks of this lifestyle <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2019\/01\/13\/smarter-living\/how-to-actually-truly-focus-on-what-youre-doing.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">in an interview<\/a> with <em>The New York Times<\/em>: \u201cEvery time you switch your attention from one target to another and then back again, there\u2019s a cost. This switching creates an effect that psychologists call attention residue, which can reduce your cognitive capacity for a non-trivial amount of time before it clears. If you constantly make &#8216;quick checks\u2019 of various devices and inboxes, you essentially keep yourself in a state of persistent attention residue, which is a terrible idea if you\u2019re someone who uses your brain to make a living.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Instead of flitting from activity to activity, Newport urges us to actively make time for \u201cdeep work\u201d every day, time when we are focused on a cognitively challenging task without interruption from anything else. This could be knitting or reading or learning a language or meeting a professional goal. The important part is that it needs to be an activity you can commit to investing your energy in wholeheartedly. <\/p>\n<p>Getting in the habit of working deeply will, says Newport, lead you to the inevitable conclusion that \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/?post_type=quote&amp;p=56756\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">concentration is a super power<\/a>.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>What in your life would you like to approach with a <a href=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/positive-living\/creativity-goes-a-long-way-to-lower\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u201cdeep work\u201d<\/a> mentality?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cZero distractions.\u201d That\u2019s what Cal Newport, author of Digital Minimalism: Choosing a Focused Life in a Noisy World, says is required to have a session of focused productivity he calls \u201cdeep work.\u201d Is a zero-distraction moment even available to most of us these days?
