Book Summary: Digital Minimalism by Cal Newport
by samuel thomas davies

  1. 'Digital Minimalism: “A philosophy of technology use in which you focus your online time on a small number of carefully selected and optimized activities that strongly support things you value, and then happily miss out on everything else.”
  2. Digital Declutter: A practice in which you define your technology rules, take a thirty-day break, and reintroduce technology.
  3. Solitude Deprivation: A state in which you spend close to zero time alone with your own thoughts and free from input from other minds.
  4. The Social Media Paradox: Social media makes you feel both connected and lonely, happy and sad.
  5. The Bennett Principle: A practice in which you prioritize demanding activity over passive consumption, use skills to produce valuable things in the physical world, and seek activities that require real-world, structured social interactions.'
