La capacité qui revêt le plus de valeur dans notre économie se fait de plus en plus rare. Celui qui la développe se donne les moyens d'accomplir de grandes choses.
Le travail en profondeur, ou deep work, désigne une activité professionnelle menée dans un état de concentration absolue qui pousse nos capacités cognitives jusqu'à leurs limites. Ces efforts créent de la valeur, affinent nos compétences et sont difficiles à reproduire. En d'autres termes, le travail en profondeur est comme un superpouvoir dans notre économie toujours plus concurrentielle. Et pourtant... nous avons, pour la plupart, perdu cette capacité.
S'appuyant sur des modèles de réussite historiques et contemporains, Cal Newport nous explique pourquoi il est si crucial de réapprendre à se concentrer intensément dans un monde débordant d'informations et de distractions. Il nous enseigne 4 principes destinés à rééduquer notre esprit et à replacer le travail en profondeur, seule source de sens et de valeur, au coeur de notre vie professionnelle.

Finies les to-do list sans fins et les réunions à répétition, notre définition de la productivité est périmée, et Cal Newport nous en propose
une nouvelle. La philosophie de la slow productivity s'organise autour de trois concepts principaux :
Effectuer moins de tâches ;
travailler à un rythme naturel ;
être extrêmement attentif à la qualité.
De Galilée à Isaac Newton, Cal Newport puise ses exemples dans l'Histoire pour montrer comment revenir à une manière plus saine de
travailler : en prenant son temps. -

"Suis ta passion" n'est pas un bon conseil pour réussir sa future carrière et s'épanouir. Cette maxime est même dangereuse, car elle entraîne souvent de l'anxiété, de l'insatisfaction et des changements constants d'emploi.
Celui qui consacre du temps et des efforts à devenir toujours meilleur dans ce qu'il fait, prendra de plus en plus de plaisir dans son activité au fur et à mesure de sa maîtrise. C'est le meilleur élément pour être satisfait au travail et faire une grande carrière.
Les secrets d'une carrière réussie se cache dans ces 4 lois : 1. Ne suis pas ta passion. 2. Deviens si bon qu'on ne pourra plus se passer de toi, ou l'importance des compétences. 3. Refuse une promotion, ou l'importance du contrôle. 4. Pense petit, agis grand. -

A WORLD WITHOUT EMAIL - REIMAGINING WORK IN AN AGE OF COMMUNICATION OVERLOAD

B>From New York Times bestselling author Cal Newport comes a bold vision for liberating workers from the tyranny of the inbox--and unleashing a new era of productivity./b>br>br>Modern knowledge workers communicate constantly. Their days are defined by a relentless barrage of incoming messages and back-and-forth digital conversations--a state of constant, anxious chatter in which nobody can disconnect, and so nobody has the cognitive bandwidth to perform substantive work. There was a time when tools like email felt cutting edge, but a thorough review of current evidence reveals that the "hyperactive hive mind" workflow they helped create has become a productivity disaster, reducing profitability and perhaps even slowing overall economic growth. Equally worrisome, it makes us miserable. Humans are simply not wired for constant digital communication.br>br>We have become so used to an inbox-driven workday that it''s hard to imagine alternatives. But they do exist. Drawing on years of investigative reporting, author and computer science professor Cal Newport makes the case that our current approach to work is broken, then lays out a series of principles and concrete instructions for fixing it. In A World without Email, he argues for a workplace in which clear processes--not haphazard messaging--define how tasks are identified, assigned and reviewed. Each person works on fewer things (but does them better), and aggressive investment in support reduces the ever-increasing burden of administrative tasks. Above all else, important communication is streamlined, and inboxes and chat channels are no longer central to how work unfolds. br>br>The knowledge sector''s evolution beyond the hyperactive hive mind is inevitable. The question is not whether a world without email is coming (it is), but whether you''ll be ahead of this trend. If you''re a CEO seeking a competitive edge, an entrepreneur convinced your productivity could be higher, or an employee exhausted by your inbox, A World Without Email will convince you that the time has come for bold changes, and will walk you through exactly how to make them happen.

Le travailleur moyen consacre un tiers de sa journée à ses e-mails. Et vous ?
La surcharge d'e-mails nuit à notre efficacité et à notre bien-être. Pris dans un bavardage numérique constant, nous ne pouvons pas nous concentrer pleinement sur nos tâches et encore moins répondre à des exigences de créativité ou d'innovation.

À l'aide de nombreuses études de cas, il montre comment :
- rationaliser les communications importantes ;
- optimiser l'identification et l'attribution des tâches ;
- mettre en place des processus adaptés au travail intellectuel.
La question n'est pas de savoir si un monde sans e-mails adviendra, mais si vous serez à l'avant-garde de cette transformation. Révolutionnez vos méthodes de travail pour prendre un avantage concurrentiel ! -

THE TIME-BLOCK PLANNER - A DAILY METHOD FOR DEEP WORK IN A DISTRACTED WORLD

From the bestselling author of Deep Work and Digital Minimalism comes a daily planner that deploys the power of time blocking to help you focus on what's important in an increasingly distracted world. Time blocking is a time management method long used by some of the world's most effective people, from Elon Musk to Bill Gates, and promoted by some of the smartest thinkers in productivity, from Peter Drucker to Benjamin Franklin. Its core idea is that a task list is not enough to make the most of your limited time. You should instead partition your working hours into blocks assigned to specific activities. In doing so, you can more easily protect hours for deep work, while batching shallow tasks into efficient sprints. The clarity of these blocks also encourages you to focus intensely on one thing at a time, resisting the distracting allure of inboxes, social media, and idle web surfing. For fifteen years, author Cal Newport has been extolling the benefits of time blocking. Now for the first time, this system has been captured in a daily planner that makes it easy for anyone to implement these ideas in their own professional life. The Time-Block Planner opens with an introduction from Newport to guide you through the basics of effective time blocking. Ninety days' worth of time-blocking pages follow, each divided into a grid that simplifies both building daily schedules and easily updating them as circumstances change. Weekly planning pages supplement the daily planning pages, each including a big idea about productivity from Newport, inspiring you to think deeply about the week ahead. A "shutdown" box sits at the top of each page so you can physically and psychologically end your workday with a check of the box--a ritual widely employed by many of Newport's longtime readers. You already know what work really matters. The Time-Block Planner will help you push aside distractions and other peoples' demands for your time, and focus on accomplishing more of these deep efforts than you ever thought possible.

DIGITAL MINIMALISM ; CHOOSING A FOCUSED LIFE IN A NOISY WORLD

A New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Publishers Weekly, and USA Today bestseller "Newport is making a bid to be the Marie Kondo of technology: someone with an actual plan for helping you realize the digital pursuits that do, and don't, bring value to your life."--Ezra Klein, Vox Minimalism is the art of knowing how much is just enough. Digital minimalism applies this idea to our personal technology. It's the key to living a focused life in an increasingly noisy world. In this timely and enlightening book, the bestselling author of Deep Work introduces a philosophy for technology use that has already improved countless lives. Digital minimalists are all around us. They're the calm, happy people who can hold long conversations without furtive glances at their phones. They can get lost in a good book, a woodworking project, or a leisurely morning run. They can have fun with friends and family without the obsessive urge to document the experience. They stay informed about the news of the day, but don't feel overwhelmed by it. They don't experience "fear of missing out" because they already know which activities provide them meaning and satisfaction. Now, Newport gives us a name for this quiet movement, and makes a persuasive case for its urgency in our tech-saturated world. Common sense tips, like turning off notifications, or occasional rituals like observing a digital sabbath, don't go far enough in helping us take back control of our technological lives, and attempts to unplug completely are complicated by the demands of family, friends and work. What we need instead is a thoughtful method to decide what tools to use, for what purposes, and under what conditions. Drawing on a diverse array of real-life examples, from Amish farmers to harried parents to Silicon Valley programmers, Newport identifies the common practices of digital minimalists and the ideas that underpin them. He shows how digital minimalists are rethinking their relationship to social media, rediscovering the pleasures of the offline world, and reconnecting with their inner selves through regular periods of solitude. He then shares strategies for integrating these practices into your life, starting with a thirty-day "digital declutter" process that has already helped thousands feel less overwhelmed and more in control. Technology is intrinsically neither good nor bad. The key is using it to support your goals and values, rather than letting it use you. This book shows the way.
