Crucial subject, dear to me: shutting out distractions for deep productive concentrated work. No huge surprises but great supporting thoughts. I liked the point of considering the downside of the internet, instead of only the positives.      source

I have had people ask me what ‘deep work’ means. If you already haven’t developed a habit of reading I encourage you to start soonest. A good place to begin is with ‘Deep Work’ by Carl Newport. No doubt one of the BEST books in my collection. Remember you are what you feed on!      source
