Are you feeling stuck in your work? Are you unable to get your creative juices flowing?

It might be because you're not challenging yourself enough or the task is simply too easy.

Remember, flow occurs when our skill matches the difficulty of the task - the Goldilocks zone 🤩

[Flow State by Bobby Lyte @ourflowstate]

Struggling to get in the groove?

Don't stress! Flow comes easier when we let our minds wander.

Pause on the work, daydream, take a walk and enjoy the process.

Whatever you do don't stay here (Twitter, Youtube, Instagram, etc) 😬

[Flow State by Bobby Lyte @ourflowstate]

Just as a tree can't grow without roots, creativity can't flourish without downtime 😌

Make time for restful mind wandering - it's an important part of the creative process.

Your next breakthrough could be one daydream away 💭

Embrace quantity and watch quality improve.

It's about building a habit of finishing, not perfecting.

A completed project deepens your insight into the entire process.

Over time the quality of your output will naturally improve.

For example, have you tried viewing social media only between the hours of 4 and 5 pm?

Imagine the morning and afternoon of pure focus this would grant you.

[Flow State by Bobby Lyte @ourflowstate]

Nearly 40% of our listeners say social media is the #1 distraction.

Turn social media into a source of entertainment and inspiration instead of a distraction:

[Flow State by Bobby Lyte @ourflowstate]

Time box your time on social media.

Maybe you come here for inspiration.
Maybe you come here for entertainment.
Maybe you come here to connect.

*Everything in the right dose is enjoyable.*

Dose yourself correctly by time boxing your social media.

@tferriss Saying yes to just ONE thing and saying no to everything else...

It's the difference between very successful people and somewhat successful people.

Also it's the difference between enjoyable work (focus) and not work that drags on (scattered with plenty overhead)

[Flow State by Bobby Lyte @ourflowstate]

Remember, *time and place* play a huge factor in your performance.

Not feeling up to the creative demand of that task? You might be better suited for that task at another time of day.
