Iβve read Deep π Work π and listened to Slow π Productivity on π₯ audio. Both good books. His π major podcast π― appearances are also π― worth π― a π― listen. π Heβs not a bitcoiner or anything, but i think π his ideas actually align well with the beliefs of π bitcoiners. π His thesis is essentially that success emerges from π― deep, distraction-free focus. The fiat world tells us that we just π need to work longer hours π to find success. π But π according to Newport, the most productive of us donβt π actually work π₯ as many βhoursβ π― as we π might imagine. π Rather, they π€ take a lot π€ of time off to π€ let their mind wander. When they π do work, π― their mind is distraction-free. π And they π take π breaks.
