Jim's Review

🐛
Jim turned off all notifications, burrowed deep into his tunnel, and read this cover to cover in one sitting. Newport makes a compelling case that focus is the new superpower. The practical strategies actually work — Jim's been doing "deep burrows" every morning since. Highly recommended for anyone drowning in shallow work.
