About this book

Summary

Remote work reshaped modern knowledge work and left many former high performers struggling with scattered attention, meeting overload, and nonstop digital interruptions. The Deep Work Reset offers a practical, implementation-focused system for rebuilding clarity in a world that rarely gives it. Drawing from years of lived experience inside distributed teams, the book combines a 72-hour attention interrupt, a two-mode workday model, a meeting elimination playbook, home-boundary reconstruction, and a daily output scorecard into a cohesive reset designed for remote and hybrid professionals. Managers, individual contributors, and burned-out but ambitious workers will find tools for restoring cognitive stability, reducing context switching, improving collaboration, and rebuilding the identity of a high performer. Instead of quick hacks or abstract theory, this book focuses on scripts, guardrails, rhythms, and environmental design that make deep work possible again.
