Join WeWork Labs for a Q&A with Cal Newport to discuss his new book, Digital Minimalism: Choosing a Focused Life in a Noisy World. Learn about setting tech boundaries that go beyond just turning off your notifications, and how doing so can lead to a more fulfilling, focused, and productive life. Moderated by Adam Mutschler, host of The Founder's Mind podcast.
Cal Newport is an associate professor of computer science at
Georgetown University and the author of six books,
including Deep Work and So Good They Can't Ignore You. You
won't find him on Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram, but you can
often find him at home with his family in Washington, DC, or
writing essays for his popular website calnewport.com.
You wouldn't know it, but digital minimalists are all around us. They are the calm, happy people who can hold a long conversation without furtive glances at their phone. Georgetown Professor Cal Newport gives us a name for this powerful but quiet movement, and makes a persuasive case for its urgency and value in an increasingly noisy world.
