Episode 3341:

Cal Newport explores the transition from the "Age of Productivity," where mastering tools and systems was key, to a new era focused on work philosophies that emphasize meaningful creation and personal fulfillment. This shift, sparked by figures like Merlin Mann, reflects a deeper search for a fulfilling work life, moving beyond mere efficiency toward a more thoughtful approach to what we do and why we do it.

Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.calnewport.com/blog/2011/11/05/welcome-to-the-post-productivity-world/

Quotes to ponder:

"Survey the current landscape of self-improvement blogs. It’s no longer popular to post about productivity porn."

"The Age of Productivity began its decline around the time Mann, its Prometheus, turned his back on it."

"What matters in this new age is your work philosophy, not your systems."
