Master one of our economy's most rare skills and achieve groundbreaking results with this "exciting" book (Daniel H. Pink) from an "exceptional" author (New York Times Book Review).

Deep work is the ability to focus without distraction on a cognitively demanding task. It's a skill that allows you to quickly master complicated information and produce better results in less time. Deep Work will make you better at what you do and provide the sense of true fulfillment that comes from craftsmanship. In short, deep work is like a super power in our increasingly competitive twenty-first century economy. And yet, most people have lost the ability to go deep-spending their days instead in a frantic blur of e-mail and social media, not even realizing there's a better way.

In Deep Work, author and professor Cal Newport flips the narrative on impact in a connected age. Instead of arguing distraction is bad, he instead celebrates the power of its opposite. Dividing this book into two parts, he first makes the case that in almost any profession, cultivating a deep work ethic will produce massive benefits. He then presents a rigorous training regimen, presented as a series of four "rules," for transforming your mind and habits to support this skill.

1. Work Deeply
2. Embrace Boredom
3. Quit Social Media
4. Drain the Shallows

A mix of cultural criticism and actionable advice, Deep Work takes the reader on a journey through memorable stories-from Carl Jung building a stone tower in the woods to focus his mind, to a social media pioneer buying a round-trip business class ticket to Tokyo to write a book free from distraction in the air-and no-nonsense advice, such as the claim that most serious professionals should quit social media and that you should practice being bored. Deep Work is an indispensable guide to anyone seeking focused success in a distracted world.

Here's just 4 money tips (money management strategies) included in this incredible financial guide from Christian counselor, June Hunt.

Money Tip #1: Identify and Assess Your Financial Situation

Take inventory of your assets: What do you own? What is the approximate value of the things you own (car, house, property, insurance policy--large items)?

Identify your income: How much money do you make?

Detail your debts: What/who do you owe? When is it due?

What interest rates are you paying on each debt?

Approximate your monthly bills: What do you pay for rent/mortgage, utilities, gasoline/transportation, phone, food, clothing, insurance, entertainment?

Helpful Hint: Keep a log throughout each month of everything you spend.

Money Tip #2: Consider Your Lifestyle and Spending Habits

Be introspective: Why do you live the way you do? For career advancement, to please family, to entertain friends, or to live comfortably?

Consider what you could honestly do without: Do you pay others to do something that you could do yourself? Do you eat out when you could eat less expensively at home?

Money Tip #3: Establish Financial Goals

List future expenditures: What future expenses do you anticipate? (such as schooling, purchasing a home, replacing a car, etc).

Consider future career and family changes: Are you considering starting your own business, serving in a ministry, getting married, or starting a family? How will these plans change your financial situation?

State your future financial goals: Financially, where do you want to be 5 years from now...10 years? What are realistic expectations money saving goals?

Money Tip #4: Take Action with Your Finances

Pay extra on your debts and stop feeding your debt through unnecessary habits.

Establish a savings plan: How much money are you setting aside for the future?

How are you preparing for major emergencies and for retirement so that you don't find yourself in debt again?

To help you chart your path to financial freedom, grab a copy of June Hunt's Financial Freedom: How to Handle Your Money Wisely. This tool offers practical help to find financial freedom, including: Five Principles of Managing Money and How to Cancel Debt. What perspective should I have of money?

Myth: If you live a godly, Christian life, you will experience financial gain and prosperity.
Truth: According to God's Word, godliness is not a means to financial gain. The Bible calls this a different doctrine taught by false teachers.

Myth: Money is the root of all evil.
Truth: No, according to the Bible, it is the love of money that is a root of evil. (1 Timothy 6:10). Money can be used for great good.

Myth: If I ever have enough money and earthly possessions, I will be happy.
Truth Happiness does not spring from your financial situation nor does it come from possessions.

His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!' (Matthew 25:23).

Finding true financial freedom involves more than having enough money to bask in the comfort of a prosperous lifestyle. It's more than learning to budget expenses, to save regularly, to invest wisely. True financial freedom is being content with what God gives you. And contentment is a matter of the heart!
