"Newport is making a bid to be the Marie Kondo of technology: someone with an actual plan for helping you realize the digital pursuits that do, and don't, bring value to your life."--Ezra Klein, Vox
Minimalism is the art of knowing how much is just enough. Digital minimalism applies this idea to our personal technology. It's the key to living a focused life in an increasingly noisy world.
In this timely and enlightening book, the bestselling author of Deep Work introduces a philosophy for technology use that has already improved countless lives.
Digital minimalists are all around us. They're the calm, happy people who can hold long conversations without furtive glances at their phones. They can get lost in a good book, a woodworking project, or a leisurely morning run. They can have fun with friends and family without the obsessive urge to document the experience. They stay informed about the news of the day, but don't feel overwhelmed by it. They don't experience "fear of missing out" because they already know which activities provide them meaning and satisfaction.
Now, Newport gives us a name for this quiet movement, and makes a persuasive case for its urgency in our tech-saturated world. Common sense tips, like turning off notifications, or occasional rituals like observing a digital sabbath, don't go far enough in helping us take back control of our technological lives, and attempts to unplug completely are complicated by the demands of family, friends and work. What we need instead is a thoughtful method to decide what tools to use, for what purposes, and under what conditions.
Drawing on a diverse array of real-life examples, from Amish farmers to harried parents to Silicon Valley programmers, Newport identifies the common practices of digital minimalists and the ideas that underpin them. He shows how digital minimalists are rethinking their relationship to social media, rediscovering the pleasures of the offline world, and reconnecting with their inner selves through regular periods of solitude. He then shares strategies for integrating these practices into your life, starting with a thirty-day "digital declutter" process that has already helped thousands feel less overwhelmed and more in control.
Technology is intrinsically neither good nor bad. The key is using it to support your goals and values, rather than letting it use you. This book shows the way.

Ce que les critiques en disent
“Cal Newport’s Digital Minimalism is the best book I’ve read in some time about our fraught relationship with technology... If you’re looking for a blueprint to guide you as you liberate yourself from the shackles of email, social networks, smartphones, and screens, let this book be your guide." —Adam Alter, author of Irresistible
“I challenge you not to devour this wonderful book in one sitting. I certainly did, and I started applying Cal’s ideas to my own life immediately.” —Greg McKeown, author of Essentialism
“You’re not the user, you’re the product. Hang up, log off, and tune in to a different way to be in the world. Bravo, Cal. Smart advice for good people.” —Seth Godin, author of This is Marketing

“I hope that everyone who owns a mobile phone and has been wondering where their time goes gets a chance to absorb the ideas in this book.

“Cal’s call for meaningful and engaged interactions is just what the world needs right now.” —Daniel Levitin, author of The Organized Mind

Important ideas!!

1. Create (good) habits. Say practice piano every day or go to the gym once a week. You can break that habit once, for any reason. But break it twice in a row means you have created a new habit. A powerful idea that's easy to remember.
2. Related to No.1: You don't have to do an hour of your new habit every day. Just doing it for at least 5 minutes is better than skipping it, because skipping means you have created a new habit.
3. The reference to the Amish shows some serious research, just as in the book What Technology Wants. The Amish famously avoid new technology until they have determined it won't hurt their values. Their patriarchal council isn't perfect, but it exists for a clear purpose, and they have the concept of Rumspringa which allows teenagers to leave the community for a year to experience the rest of the world before they must decide to return to Amish values or stay. 80% return. My own "modern" family was not open minded like this. The Amish system shows a degree of confidence in its values, and ultimately lets the child decide for himerself.
Pretty good, well researched

What Cal is advocating for can be taken as a guide to self preservation in the digital age. Cal refers often to the ways in which the digital-sphere has reduced and redacted our autonomy. Here he opens up the doors and pulls back the curtains, have a look, are you comfortable with all that you have not consented to? Cal suggests we act with intentionality and resistance. Im going in 100.
Essential.

My only minor complaint is that the performance was boring a lot of the time. I felt like I was back in a university lecture struggling to pay attention to a boring speaker despite fascinating course material.
Compelling and timely, but the performance drones
