Today’s wisdom is from So Good They Can’t Ignore You by Cal Newport.
One of my favorite authors and dear friend. Let’s go Cal!
Cal reminds us: “Passion isn’t something you follow—it’s something you develop through mastery.”
Instead of chasing passion, He tells us focus on building skills that create purpose and opportunity.
Here’s how to master your craft today:
1. Adopt the Craftsman Mindset. Cal writes: “Focus on doing great work, not on what work can do for you.” Commit to excellence in your efforts today.
2. Deliberately Practice. He tells us: “Deliberate practice is how you get better.” Choose one skill to improve and focus on it with intention.
3. Seek Feedback. “Feedback is a shortcut to mastery.” Ask someone you trust for one piece of constructive feedback today.
