Steven Kotler: How to enter flow state (Daily EDGE: emotional intelligence podcast)

Podcast - The Daily Edge

How do you get into flow consistently? This is the question that Steven Kotler and his writing partner, Jamie Wheal, first asked in Rise of the Superman, and continued to explore in Stealing Fire.

Raul Villacis: Finding Certainty in the Middle of Chaos

The last year has been a crazy ride.

Because pushing yourself means that sometimes you’ll miss the mark.

If you want to be in flow state, you have to be at the upper limit of your abilities. You can’t find your boundaries if you don’t push them, and you’ll only know what they are when you fail.

That’s what it means to face adversity.

Having a vision is good, but the vision has to be big enough to pull you through adversity.

Otherwise, it’s not big enough.
