I'm Cal Newport and this is a deep questions habit tune-up mini episode.

The format here is simple.

I take voice questions specifically on the topic of how to tune up

your productivity habits in this moment in which our working lives are increasingly

disrupted.

I have a good group of questions put aside for today's episode.

Among other queries, we'll tackle how doctors can try to tame shallow work, how

finance people can try to tame just too many work hours demanded of them overall.

We'll get into the difference between daily and

weekly planning and even talk about how to schedule for depth. When you have a

chronic illness it means you're not sure in advance how much energy you're going to have.

So right before I began recording today's episode, I stopped by the local coffee shop that I frequent here.

It's a coffee shop called Bevco here in Tacoma Park and it is on

essentially the same block as a Deep Work HQ and only a few blocks from my home.

So as you can imagine, I frequent it a lot.
