In other words, being in the flow state allows you to achieve great things, but you have to take action to achieve the flow state.Most people assume that relaxation makes them happy. They want to work less and spend more time in the hammock. When you achieve flow, you do achieve the holy grail of productivity: intense, laser-focused single-tasking. But that’s just the beginning. Where you go from there is the creation of a more meaningful existence, of making an impact that’s beyond just you, your locus of control expanding as you gain possession of your own life.
Key Takeaways:
- A flow state is a way to describe a state in which you are fully immersed in the activity you are doing.
- You can put yourself into this proactive state by creating a pre-flow state ritual that gets you ready to work.
- It’s easier by far to get into a flow state doing something you truly love. The trick with less loved activities is to find the aspect of them that you can enjoy.
