Course: Concentration and Focus: The Principles of Deep Work

Apply Dr Cal Newport's Deep Work Methodology to Get Stuff Done.

Self-Paced

Description

Everybody wants to get more done, but we go about it the wrong way.

We think getting more done requires more time. We will put in 80 hours of work a week, getting an abysmal return on investment for the last 20 - 30 hours. We can't elbow grease our way through problems by throwing time at them.

We don't need more time to work. We need to change how we work.

This class, based on Dr Cal Newport's Deep Work principles, provides the concepts to do just that. Deep Work is all about cutting out the superfluous, unnecessary tasks in our professional and personal life. It will help you focus in on the things you do that provide the most value - to the market, and to your own life.

This is a short primer course with the videos you need to get the basics and follow up resources if you are curious exploring this deeper.

Don't waste your life working. Work smarter, and provide more value to the world, with Deep Work.
