Digital Minimalism: Choosing a Focused Life in a Noisy World by Cal Newport
Lots of food for thought; the psychology behind our perceived “need” for constant digital access is fascinating. Will be trying my hardest to live as a digital minimalist from now on.
(Goodreads is absolutely essential: she makes the cut).
Edit: It is, like most of the world, very ableist. As a newly disabled person, the chapters on walking and increased productivity were instant skips… Not everyone is physically/mentally able to schedule face to face meet ups or even speak on the phone. I got some good points from it but had to pick and choose what was accessible for my own life.
