What you'll learn from this episode:
Learning that work is a service to the world is incredibly important on the journey towards mastery, it needs to become part of your motivation.
To encourage mastery at work, companies should:
Have exceptionally high standards for their talent & hiring.
Look for ways in your team to allow them to be more focused in their discipline, and remove things pulling away from that core thing.
Establish workplace cultures that foster Deep Work.
Guard your employees and encourage them to create boundaries so they can do undisturbed, focused, deep work regularly (ideally 4 hours per day).
Being efficient with your time is something to be celebrated but believing that work is meaningless isn't the goal.
Work was part of the original perfect design by God (Genesis 1).
"Passion follows mastery, passion follows service. It grows with competency over time because that's how God created us. God created to serve us. We create the serve other people. When you understand work like that, you're fired up and you want to do as much as much work as you can for the good of others."
Your area to master = the area of life you're disproportionately skilled in.
