Show Notes

In this episode of The Agent of Wealth Podcast, the Bautis Financial team discusses the most recent book assignment in their monthly Book Club, Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World  by Cal Newport.

Deep work should be considered a superpower in our increasingly competitive twenty-first century economy, yet most people have lost the ability to go deep – instead, spending their days in a frantic blur of emails and social media, not even realizing there's a better way.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • What it means to “work deeply.”
  • The power of deep work.
  • The four "rules," for transforming your mind and habits to support this skill: Work deeply, embrace boredom, quit social media, drain the shallows.
  • And more!
