What is a deep work? How to learn to work intently?

Currently people haven’t engaged in work intently, because there are many <s>distracting factors</s> distractions, which hadn’t been worked productivity. (Not entirely sure what is meant here: "distractions, which have been hurting productivity"? "Distractions, which haven't been removed productively?") What is meant by “deep work” (or "What does 'deep work' mean?")? By the way, the phrase "deep work" doesn't actually exist in English — it was invented by Cal Newport. <s>How to be fully involved?</s> How can someone be fully involved in their work? Cal Newport revealed these questions in his book titled “DEEP WORK”. Deep work- is professional activities performed in a state of distractions (without distractions?) that push your cognitive capabilities to their limit. For example, when perform important tasks demanding concentration: studying, working on a project, organizing data in <s>excel</s> Excel.

If you want to achieve good results in your work, and create to the best of your ability, you will must <s>to</s> incorporate deep work into your life. First of all, when you will perform work you should eliminate all distraction, you must be fully involved in the process. The a<s>A</s>bility to work deeply is becoming <s>the most</s> a valuable asset, <s>if</s> since you <s>would</s> can accomplish more than people who are constantly distracted. Every day you should focus on tasks which <s>have been </s>seem<s>ed so</s> difficult for an extended period of time. When your brain is free of <s>distracting factors</s> distractions such as Internet, social media and chatting ("texting" works as well), <s>your mind will has been channeled your thought in «working flow»</s> (your mind will become channeled into a "working flow"). Second, the person must be absorbed in what he does. The meaning of flow is a zone, mental state of activity which is performed a full immersion in work and enjoyment in the process of the activity. Besides, when you engage in working flow, you can be happier than in your free time, because you <s>have</s> enjoy<s>ed of </s>your job, where <s>have feedback rules</s> (not sure what is meant here) and <s>chief</s> boss (in English, "chief" usually means leader of a tribe, or is used ironically) and colleagues will <s>encourage</s> praise you for your effort<s>s</s> and good <s>job</s> work.

If you want to incorporate deep work into your life you should follow a few rules. Choose certain days <s>weeks</s> that you will dedicate to deep work. During these periods of time you can’t use your phone, TV. You can’t <s>going</s> go to meetings. You should eliminate all distractions, then you can dedicate all of your mental state and create intention to focused learning, working, growing. You should start small, for example, <s>spending time of deep work an 1 hour a day</s> spending 1 hour a day on deep work then you can increase the amount of time. After you pick a time, you need to pick a location. The location must be quiet and free from distraction. In addition, you need to establish the <s>laws</s> rules? of your deep work. Lastly, you need to create <s>recharges</s> ways to recharge from <s>for</s> your deep work. As for me, I prefer listening music and scrolling <s>thought</s> through social media. It allows you to stay motivated and <s>energy</s> energetic. All of <s>these advises</s> this advice help you to work <s>productivity</s> productively and improve your skills.

A few midnight speculations in order to get better at English.

<s>Being enjoyed by</s> "Since I've been enjoying" is one alternative the lessons on <s>the</s> Italki, I’m trying to enlarge my vocabulary, <s>grammar rule set</s> set of grammar rules and trying to speak more in the target language. Having been studying English since school, I <s>had</s> have not really practiced with native speakers. It has changed for me (a more idiomatic way to say this might be: "Now things have changed"). And now I'm studying English here. I'd like to discuss some things related to <s>the</s> IT in English because <s>there are</s> I have some interesting experiences and would share it or get something new from somebody. Unfortunately, I use only my native language at work because <s>there are we have not a need</s> there is no need <s>for</s> to use other. Moreover, <s>the</s> topics related to travel <s>is</s> are really close to my interests. I could share my experience and will be glad to know something new. It would be nice to discuss <s>about</s> IT, travel, languages (human and programming) and some general topics. <s>It’s known that the capability of getting better at what you want or need is a having daily practice in that</s> I might express this idea in a few different ways: "It's known that to get better at what you want or need, you have to practice daily", or "To get better at what you want or need, you have to practice daily" and tackling some obstacles in the target language. All in all, I would <s>be</s> really appreciate<s>d by</s> any feedback, review, correction and perhaps future discussions.

My goal

My goal for the near future. One day - one post. I’m trying to learn English on my own. <s>Be organized it’s difficult for me</s> ("Being organized is difficult for me", or "It is difficult for me to be organized")... I have <s>hobby a lot</s> many hobbies, <s>it’s</s> they are embroidery, drawing, reading, fitness and I’m always <s>distracting</s> distracted ) My progress over the past year has not been great. From beginner level to elementary level. So slow...

Different Stuff

Rock paintings appeared in places where ancient people used the toilet.

Unfortunately, life is not only always longer than it seems, but also much more diverse than expected.

***

The slaves might have liked their work. And they were proud of the pyramids.

***

It's scary to think how many bacteria accumulate under the mask of a subway passenger.

For some reason, whenever you try to show that you're not like everyone else, it always turns out all the more so, and besides, you’re also a fool.

An urban legend says that if a TV tells the truth, it will immediately burn out. Of course, this is nonsense. All TV receivers have a special relay that will turn (this is correct, but you could also say "turns") them off <s>for</s> a moment before the truth<s>,</s>. <s>t</s>They will not have time to burn.

The Pandemic Chronicles

With parks closed, hardware shops only open <s>to</s> for "essential" business (plumbers, electricians, and the like), and all entertainment on hold I find that the days smear together to form a week. But, like all of you, I'm finding ways to keep busy. While my family is farming outside the city, I am isolated in the city. It's very exciting. In the process of cleaning, I found a few things that I last saw in 2011. I do a lot of video communication with David. David is isolated next door to me. Sometimes we talk on our balconies. David sent his family a little further away than I sent mine - to Canada. Karen, Davy, Ray, and Angela arrived at their home near Toronto. They were met on the porch by an apple pie, a sanitizer, and a note from their Grandmother Natalie. The note said: "Treat your hands and door handles, take a shower." Grandma Natalie is a rugged American grandmother, she saw the real Ronald Reagan. She has self-isolated in the guest bedroom. According to rumors, Russia has not only coronavirus, but also leptospirosis, cholera and plague. David's family will <s>be two weeks to</s> isolate themselves in the backyard around the pool for two weeks. Davy and Ray are planning to set up a tent. Their father David decided it was a disgrace to run away from his parishioners. So he continues to feed Russian drug addicts on the street. David is a great guy, despite our religious differences. On next Monday, I'll find out if I can go to work. Wish me luck.

I tend to avoid the phrases with ‘out of’

Hello, I hope you are healthy and safe.

In our time of technology we can choose <s>out of</s> between/from/among millions of options. In English you usually say "choose between", "choose from" or "choose among", not "choose out of".

Out of the blue this idea crossed my mind

You don’t need to do something out of <s>the</s> this world ("out of this world" is an expression), just keep going.

Try to make the best out of <s>you have something</s> what you have at hand

The new devices appear<s>s</s> out of nowhere.

you got the best one last year but today it is already out of <s>the</s> date

There are only eternal values out of time. In English I don't think you say "out of time" in this context. Another way to phrase this idea might be "There are only eternal values throughout time".

I <s>have seen</s> saw <s>so</s> a pretty <s>women</s> woman yesterday, it sucks but she was out of my league.

I can’t get her picture out of my mind

I feel like my body is getting out of shape

Of course, someone says that you are out of work

I’m getting worried about my relatives, they are still out of touch. If you mean that you and your relatives have not spoken in a while, then the phrase is "We haven't been in touch" or "We have <em style="color: rgb(230, 0, 0);">fallen</em> out of touch". You would say your relatives are "out of touch" if they are not keeping up with trends, or have not been following the news.

That was quite out of <s>their</s> character<s>s</s>

Some people are going to be out of money

They can pay for nothing out of their pockets.

Out of respect to people who are at the front line..

We are not out of the woods.

Thank you for your time, take care Good work!
