Deep Work by Cal Newport (My plan (Ritual (Where you'll work and for…

- - - - Bimodal
        
        Like Yung or Thorreu
        
        They had a period of uninterrupted isolation but also phases where they just live regular lives
      - Rhythmic
        
        Seinfield Method
        
        Do something with moderate difficulty. Something easy enough to get started but not too easy where it isn't too meaningful. Once this goal is down put a large X on the calander
        
        Two goals
        
        Make a chain
        
        Keep the chain
        
        Ounce you have a good amount of Xs you like it. You're motivated to keep it
      - Monastic
        
        Year round effort. You cut distractions
      - Journalist
        
        Rapid switch into deep work whenever you have free time
    - - Where you'll work and for how long
      - How you'll work once you start to work
      - How you'll support your work
    - - Many greats do something bold from their everyday routine
        
        Being isolated for months, buying a $4000 roundtrip to Tokyo just to write, or as simple as locking yourself in your room
        
        It's not just the change of environment but what it represents
    - - Focus on the Important
        
        The more you try to do the less you actually accomplish
        
        Prioritize and make sacrifices
      - Act on the Lead measures
        
        This just mean focus on the things in your control
        
        Let's say you want a good grade, focusing on that is almost pointless
        
        You should focus on the things that will result in a good grade. Study, review, rest, ect
      - Keep a scorecard
        
        People play differently when they're keeping score
        
        Helps track progress
      - Create accountability
        
        Look at your scorecard and reflect on what went right what went wrong and adjust for the upcoming week
    - - Once your workday is done. Turn everything off
        
        Work that comes at night isn't usually important
        
        If you're doing it at 10 o'clock there's a reason behind it
        
        Helps recharge
        
        Vital to recover for the next day
        
        It aids insight
        
        Your unconscious mind is always at work but it needs its own time to be helpful
- - - - I'm going to preferably the school library or if not that a Starbucks
        
        I'll be there
    - - Use the pomodoro method
        
        Goal to be able to work as long as possible without needing a break
    - - No distractions
        
        No videos, facebook, or texting
