2 week ago, I read Cal Newport's Deep Work and I have been following his 4 methods of Deep Work.

Do you also want to know the 4 methods to increase your productivity?

There are 4 different methods for Deep Work -

- Monastic Deep Work
- Bimodal Deep Work
- Rhythmic Deep Work
- Journalistic Deep Work

1️⃣ Monastic Deep Work

Here, you drop everything and relocate somewhere remote; live like a monk to narrow your attention to one issue. (It may not always be feasible for all people.)

Bill Gates spent 8 weeks away from the outside world in 1970, during which time he developed the original version of Microsoft, which is today a multibillion dollar business.

Every year, Bill Gates spends a week alone, reading, and contemplating major ideas during "THINK WEEK."

2️⃣Bimodal Deep Work

For people who are unable to follow the monastic approach, there is this form of deep work.

Here, when you need to do Deep Work, you go to a different location (which must be different from where you spend the majority of your time), work there for 12 to 72 hours (not continuously! ), then return to your usual life and repeat the process until the work is complete.

J. K. Rowling completed the final Harry Potter book, Deathly Hallows, in a hotel. She only visited that hotel to complete the book.

3️⃣ Rhythmic Deep Work

This kind of deep work involves scheduling a certain time each day to carry out deep work. When you begin to perform it frequently, you can extend it to 4 hours from the initial 1-1.5 hours.

Try to organize your time as early in the day as you can since if you finish your major assignment before starting anything else, it will increase your confidence and many individuals feel more energized in the morning.

4️⃣ Journalistic Deep Work

Here, you just perform the duties of a journalist by reporting on any incidents as they happen. That implies that whenever you have free time here, you work in depth.

This approach is employed by the book's author, Cal Newport, in his work.

You can undertake in-depth work whenever you want in this place. By using this technique, you can begin your deep work and afterwards switch to a rhythmic approach.

Great. I will also be writing on the Deep Work strategies presented by Cal Newport in his book on a separate thread in the future. Stick around to read that as well.

That's a wrap!
