Deep Focus Mastery

Deep focus is not a natural state anymore; it is a discipline. The more we practice, the easier it becomes to stay with a demanding task.

Treat focus like a muscle. Warm up, lift for a set period, then recover before the next session.

Creating the Conditions

Clear your space of obvious distractions. Put the phone in another room and close extra tabs.

Set a clear intention before each focus block so you know what success looks like.

Building Capacity

Start with 25-minute sessions if 90 feels impossible. Extend gradually as your endurance improves.

When your mind wanders, guide it back without judgment. The redirection is part of the practice.

Keep it with You

• Schedule two focused blocks this week and treat them like important meetings.
• Use a single-task ritual—a candle, a playlist, a stretch—to signal deep work time.
• Track your focus streaks to watch the muscle grow.
