# Deep Work
*The work habit that gets you to the place you want to go.*
This reminds me of being in the [[Flow]] of work, having complete [[focus attention]] allows deeper connections to take place. A wandering mind who's experiences are controlled by someone else or something else is a form of [[Power Leaks]].
It's kind of like keeping your mind off the junk food.
[[🐓 Idea Farm/3 Inbox of ideas/Deep Work]] is a concept by Cal Newport where he proposes the idea that valuable work = time x deep. Asking the important questions is linked to getting the important answers, but only if your process for thinking is robust. He proposes that humans can work about 4 hours / day deeply.
