185. The Best Strategies for Staying Focused Without Getting Distracted (Implementing the Deep Work Book)


Listen Later

Taking theory and putting it into practice is a lot harder than it looks. Oftentimes we are left with the big question… but where do we go next? We recently read the book Deep Work by Cal Newport and we learned that many of us struggle to focus deeply enough where we are producing our very best content. Cal gives strategies to help you when it comes to work deeply. If you want to hear more about our thoughts on this book, check out episode 184. BOOK REVIEW: Deep Work (Our Honest Thoughts) where we dive deep into our biggest takeaways and learning after reading this book. 

In this episode we want to explore the ideas of taking theory or strategies and actually putting them into practice. We discuss our journey with embedding these practices into our everyday routines and give you some of the best strategies for working in a distracted world.
