Productivity Expert Explains: How to Accomplish Far More While Working Less (ft. Cal Newport)
About this episode
What if there was a way accomplish meaningful work—without the associated relationship breakdowns or stress? What if “making an impact” didn’t require massive amounts of energy or sacrifice? What if you could get more done by doing less?
In this episode, I talk to Cal Newport about how knowledge work has got it all wrong. We discuss the subtle dangers of remote/digital work and the key to avoiding burnout, all while still being able to grind on the things you love.
If you’re a stressed out, overworked remote worker, this one is for you.
