Regular work means emails, slack, having coffee break with colleagues, over-hearing John's joke, overhearing what happened in metro to Mark this morning, suggesting where to go for lunch today and of course preparing for a meeting and going to the meeting etc.
"Deep work" or "flow" means there's just you and the thing you're doing, nothing else.
I honestly don't understand how that is different from "regular work". How else do you work if not undistracted?
