In his letter to the Romans, St. Paul says, “Do not conform yourselves to this age but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and pleasing and perfect.” (Romans 12:2)
And from the Book of Proverbs, "In all toil there is profit, but mere talk leads only to poverty." (Proverbs 14:23)
Welcome to the St. Thomas More Academy podcast. We’re here to talk about the formation of the whole person, especially young men and women in the Catholic liberal arts tradition, all to the greater glory of God. Thank you for this download and taking the time to listen. If you find these conversations helpful, we would be grateful to those willing to rate, review, and share with others who might find them useful.
In this episode, Deacon Brad Watkins, Headmaster of the Academy, is joined by Dr. Jake Noland, Dean of Faculty, and Mr. Charles McCants, Classics Teacher and Student Life Coordinator, for a conversation about Deep Work, based on the book of the same title by Dr. Cal Newport. This is a timely topic, especially as the COVID-19 Coronavirus has forced the closure of our school and we take student formation to a distance learning/online format.
Deep Work defined: “Professional activities performed in a state of distraction-free concentration that push your cognitive capabilities to their limit. These efforts create new value, improve your skill, and are hard to replicate.” (from Deep Work, by Cal Newport)
Shallow Work defined: “Noncognitively demanding, logistical-style tasks, often performed while distracted. These efforts tend to not create new value in the world and are easy to replicate.” (from Deep Work, by Cal Newport)
Digital Minimalism by Dr. Cal Newport
Mind Change by Susan Greenfield

We are grateful for your support and humbly ask that you pray for our mission to form young men and women, the whole person, to the greater glory of God. Until next time, take care and God bless. St. Thomas More, pray for us
