Hello and welcome to the "The Jim Kroft Podcast", where I explore creative life and one-person businesses.
In today's episode, I dive into the world of 'Deep Work' inspired by Cal Newport's book, sharing how it has transformed my creative working life.
It's a particularly busy period for me as I juggle;
- End-of-year client jobs in film and photography
- Completing the edit of my new documentary, "The Isolation Diaries"
- Keeping up with my paid newsletter on Substack
- Researching my weekly guest on the Podcast
- Preparing the vinyl and artwork for my new album
Without knowing my daily process intimately, I'd have no chance to keep up.
Today, I explore a very personal take on:
- The Concept of "Deep Work"
- Concentration as a Superpower
- Choosing Your Attitude
- Setting Objectives and Deadlines
- Strategies for Getting in the Zone
- Completing Long-Term Projects
There are also some sound effects and music (all mine!) as I continue to develop my "voice" and style with these solo episodes.
Finally, I wanted to say thank you as we AGAIN entered the Apple Charts last week! If you have a moment to leave a review and rating - it would be so very appreciated.
Have a great day and see you in a fortnight,
Jim

What is The Jim Kroft Podcast?
Welcome to my Podcast, where I interview founders and creatives, bridging the worlds of business and art.
My show explores the intersection of entrepreneurship and creativity and aims to be a beacon of hope for artists and solopreneurs navigating challenging moments in their careers.
The Solopreneur and Arts worlds are connected - but all too often, there is a lack of meaningful exchange between the sectors.
By learning from those who have thrived at these crossroads, I hope to pass on stories which give us renewed strength for our paths.
With a special interest in the opportunities of the digital economy and the creator world, this podcast deep dives into the challenge of building a life for oneself.
This is me, your host Jim, signing off - by saying:
WELCOME!
Jim
