Deep Work Block
A deep work block is a protected focus span on one hard task without distractions—usually sixty to one hundred twenty minutes with defined outcomes and real breaks.
A deep work block is a protected span—often sixty to one hundred twenty minutes—devoted to one cognitively demanding task without inbox, chat, or context switching. Notifications off, clear outcome defined, and a closing ritual preserve attention residue for the next block.
Two quality blocks beat six fragmented hours.

How long should a deep work block be?
