Flow is the Opiate of the Mediocre - Cal Newport
It’s often tauted that you should achieve ‘flow’ to peak productivity. Cal Newport argues otherwise. This article is getting me (re)started on ‘Deep work’.
“Avoid Flow. Do What Does Not Come Easy.
The mistake most weak pianists make is playing, not practicing. If you walk into a music hall at a local university, you’ll hear people ‘playing’ by running through their pieces. This is a huge mistake. Strong pianists drill the most difficult parts of their music, rarely, if ever playing through their pieces in entirety.”
