Welcome to the how of business with your host, Henry Lopez, the podcast that helps you start, run, and grow your small business.

And now, here is your host.

Welcome to the how of business.

This is Henry Lopez.

And my guest co-host today is David Begin. David, welcome to this

episode. Thanks for having me, Henry. I always enjoy being on your podcast. Yeah, this is going to be a good

conversation on this episode. David and I are going to discuss the practice and habit of concentrated

time blocks of focused work, which is critical to completing valuable work.

And yet, it's becoming increasingly rare in our current lives for all kinds of different

reasons that we'll chat about. You may call this time blocking or time boxing,

although that's really more about time management. You've probably more

realistically heard it referred to as focus time, or as we're going to explore, both David and I

read Cal Newport's book named Deep Work. We'll discuss just a few key points from that book.

We're going to try to do it justice, but the book again is Deep Work by

Cal Newport, and we encourage you to read this book to learn more about this important topic.

And so that's what we're going to explore on this episode, deep work, especially from a small

business owner's perspective. To receive more information about the Hawa business, including the links to

Also, I want to take a moment to thank a couple of my listeners and a couple of my coaching program

clients as well, Sylvie in Minnesota and Blair and Vancouver. Thanks for listening

and for the opportunity to serve as your small business coach. All right, let's get into it, Dave.
