This book summary is created for individuals who want to flesh out the important contents and are too busy to go through the entire original book. This book is not intended to replace the original book.

Do more in less time. Get rid of your distraction addiction with Calvin Newport's compelling book: Deep Work.

Cal Newport is an assistant professor of computer science at Georgetown University. In his fourth book, Newport defines deep work as the capacity for intense focus free of all distractions. In the first part of this book, Newport defines the concept of deep work and its value to one's personal life and professional career. Newport also argues that deep work is applicable to almost anyone, in any line of work because it is more about resolve and commitment.

In the latter part of the book, Newport reveals the set of rules one has to follow to successfully transition from a fruitless, superficial life to one full of depth and meaning.

Cal Newport's Deep Work will help you excel at what you do, achieve your peak productivity, and give you a sense of fulfilment like never before.

Outperform the rest. Drown out the noise, and get ready to go deep.
