Cal is a well-known digital minimalist and has been known to the Unbeatable Mind tribe since his first appearance on the show talking about his book Deep Work (Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World).

Today he is talking about how email can be managed and how it has rewired our brains (not for the better).

Learn about:

How our economy is now more dependant on knowledge work-yet thinking is becoming more difficult to do
