Deep Work Philosophy
The "Think Week" or "Reading Week" philosophy helps reduce FOMO by allowing individuals to immerse themselves in topics that they are interested in but don't have the time to explore in depth due to their busy schedules. This approach aligns with the "work like a lion, not like a cow" framework and emphasizes focused sprints of productivity rather than long periods of leisurely work.
