Loved the book! Packed full of gems. Would have appreciated less stories scattered throughout. They helped to drive home the point, but they were too frequent.

The ideas are super-timely. But the bonus was how good the writing is. Cal is the real deal!

The lessons learned from this book empower you to have a more sustainable and productive like from the knowledge workers point of view. Top 3 books I’ve read this year. 10/10 recommend.

There are some good points in here, but I feel the whole book could have been bullet points in a document. The stories and anecdotes that fill the pages aren’t necessarily written in a captivating way to demand my attention; I found myself skipping through a lot of it.

Have you ever finished a book and just felt like something wasn't quite right? That's how I felt about this book by Cal Newport. The whole thing seemed off. The concept itself wasn't bad, but the stories and the main point just didn't come together. It felt forced, like the author was trying too hard to make a point. Honestly, it was a waste of time. Instead of feeling like I learned something new, I felt like the author just wanted to get a book on this topic out there, even if it wasn't that original. If you're looking for a good read, skip this one.
