The Greatest Human Mystery
● The mind is still one of the greatest human
mysteries, and to this day we still have very
little idea about certain functions of the mind
and how we actually operate.
The Flow State of Mind
● However, one common attribute that you hear
mentioned in recent years has been getting into
the flow state of mind.
● This is argued to be the be all and end all of
happiness – being able to consistently live in
the flow state of mind is the main ingredient for
living a constantly happy life.
Benefits of The Flow State
● By learning how to get into the flow state of mind, you can
instantly open yourself to a far more positive lifestyle in
general.
● You will find that you get more done, your overall
confidence and happiness increases, and you’ll have more
time to answer every question.
● This is because your mind is less confused and setback by
a difficult question – it merely answers it.
Success at Work
● Many jobs actually require this level of
concentration and strength to do them properly.
● Certain occupations, such as being a music
composer, requires virtually full attention from
you just to start to get it right.
● The flow state of mind takes away anything that
could be seen as a hindrance to your success
completely out of your train of thought and even
your attention zone.
The Best Ways To Get Into The
Flow State Of Mind
● Practice the following tips to be able to enter
the state of flow most easily...
Make it Challenging
● Find something that challenges you – make sure you
enjoy it, but it gives your brain a battle to get it finished.
● It HAS to be challenging – if something is easy for you it
will become boring, meaning you cannot get into the
flow.
● If something is too hard, though, you’ll get stuck in a
frustrated loop.
● Find something you enjoy but struggle with just enough
it takes your full dedication to succeed
Set Clear Goals
● Set your goals, meaning that before you start
you have clear criteria that you need to reach.
● This means that you can go into your state of
trance with a clear point of entry and exit,
allowing you to get in there in a state of flow
and complete the task at hand.
Minimise Distractions
● The only way to get into the process though is to
eliminate any distractions from your room.
● Just solely concentrate on your task at hand and
how you are going to complete it; nothing else at
all.
● This will eventually help you enter the state of
flow – you won’t realise it until you come out, but
the work in front of you will be inspired in
comparison to work took on at normal capacity.
