FictionSo Good They Can't Ignore You
"So Good They Can't Ignore You" captivated me with Cal Newport's compelling argument against following your passion, showing instead how developing rare and valuable skills leads to meaningful work. As one of my favorite authors, Newport consistently delivers practical wisdom across his books—from "Deep Work" to "Digital Minimalism"—always challenging conventional career advice with research-backed insights that have fundamentally shifted how I approach professional development and finding purpose in my work.
