Some tasks are just plain boring or overwhelming. But when you find the right middle between challenging and motivating you enter what is called, “the Zone”. Flow state is a mental state that facilitates productivity and predicts that the balance between a task difficulty and the individual ability to achieve it, boosts motivation.
In this episode, we dig into flow theory and how concretely mastering it to make work more purposefully.
If by the end of the episode you have any question about flow, purpose or collaboration, you can write to me at steve@generation-purpose.org
