Episode 70: Harnessing Flow State to Become a Thought Leader
We all have access to a superpower. It’s called flow state. A 10-year McKinsey and Co. study found top executives were 500% more productive when in flow. It’s the state in which we operate at our highest levels of performance—like an athlete “in the zone.” Listen in as Jay and Tom discuss the ins and outs of flow state, including:
How multitasking and distractions prevent flow state
How vision and goals promote it
Why working slightly outside your comfort zone helps you tap into it
