Deep work can be cultivated through habits from "summary" of Deep work by
To systematically develop your own ability to go deep, you need to build up your habits of mind. You need to be the one in control of what you focus on, able to direct your attention to what really matters, when it really matters. The best way to do this is to build routines and rituals into your working life. These routines and rituals will help you enter a state of deep work more easily, and maintain that state for longer periods of time. They will also help you to eliminate distractions and temptations that might pull you out of deep work mode. By establishing a set schedule for deep work, you are training your mind to go into this mode at specific times, without needing to rely on willpower or motivation. This makes it more likely that you will actually follow through and do the deep work that is necessary for high-quality, meaningful output. By making deep work a regular part of your routine, you are also reinforcing the neural pathways that support this type of focused, concentrated effort. Over time, this will make it easier and more natural for you to slip into deep work mode whenever you need to.
To cultivate deep work through habits, you also need to be intentional about how you structure your environment. This means creating a workspace that is conducive to deep work, free from distractions and clutter. It also means setting boundaries with others, so that they understand when you are in deep work mode and should not be disturbed. By consistently reinforcing these habits and routines, you will gradually strengthen your ability to concentrate deeply and produce valuable work.
