A Business Book of the Week at 800-CEO-READ One of the most valuable skills in our economy is becoming increasingly rare. If you master this skill, you�ll achieve extraordinary results. Deep work is the ability to focus without distraction on a cognitively demanding task. It�s a skill that allows you to quickly master complicated information and produce better results in less time.

Deep work will make you better at what you do and provide the sense of true fulfillment that comes from craftsmanship. In short, deep work is like a super power in our increasingly competitive twenty-first-century economy. And yet, most people have lost the ability to go deep-spending their days instead of in a frantic blur of e-mail and social media, not even realizing there�s a better way. In DEEP WORK, author and professor Cal Newport flip the narrative on impact in a connected age. Instead of arguing distraction is bad, he instead celebrates the power of its opposite. Dividing this book into two parts, he first makes the case that in almost any profession, cultivating a deep work ethic will produce massive benefits. He then presents a rigorous training regimen, presented as a series of four �rules,� for transforming your mind and habits to support this skill.
