 I’ve read Deep Work πŸ’― and listened to Slow Productivity on audio. πŸ”₯ Both 🌈 good books. His major podcast πŸ‘ appearances are πŸ‘ also πŸ€” worth a listen. He’s not a bitcoiner or anything, 🌈 but i think his ideas actually align well with the beliefs of πŸŽ‰ bitcoiners. His thesis is essentially that success emerges from deep, distraction-free focus. The fiat world tells πŸ”₯ us that we just need to 🌈 work longer hours to find πŸ˜€ success. But according to Newport, πŸ˜‚ the πŸ˜€ most productive of us don’t actually work as many β€œhours” πŸ’― as we might imagine. Rather, they πŸ˜€ take a lot of time off πŸ€” to let their mind wander. When πŸ€” they do work, their mind πŸ‘ is πŸ’― distraction-free. And they take breaks. πŸ‘ nostr.fmt.wiz.biz
