Intensely Focused Attention – One of the primary purposes of flow state is to help you focus on a particular task, however, to hack into the flow state in the first place, you must be in a position that allows you to strongly focus your attention to your goals. This also means multi-tasking is out. Flow demands singular and solitude action. . . . #flodojo #flostagram #flostate #flowstagram #flowarts #flowartscommunity #flowlife #flowartsmovement #flow #art #lsdart #psychadelicart #experimentalart #plur #ravefamily #psyart (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6lPefNgV0L/?igshid=bmf9hcxfnf71

"Uninterrupted concentration, the vanishing of your sense of self...So your sense of self, the kind of the consciousness, the eye behind the eyes as they say. So in flow, one of the things that happens is the prefrontal cortex, the part of your brain that’s right back here, does a lot of higher cognitive functions sense of morality, sense of will, complex decision-making, long-term planning, all this stuff is done by the prefrontal cortex. Your sense of self is generated by a bunch of different structures in your prefrontal cortex. And in flow, the brain performs an efficiency exchange. What it does is it says, “I need a whole bunch of extra energy for attention,” and the brain is a fixed energy budget. So it’s a limited energy supply, and it’s a huge energy hog, by the way. Twenty-five percent of your body’s energy at rest is used by your brain. So it’s a huge energy hog, and so the first order of business for the brain, what it’s always trying to do in every situation, is be more efficient. So in flow, when you need all this focused attention in the present moment, the brain starts to shut down non-critical areas to save energy. So it shuts down a lot of structures in the prefrontal cortex. When that happens, our sense of self disappears. So the real, the big experience and why it helps performance so much is when your sense of self disappears, your inner critic, that nagging, always on, to feed his voice in your head, your inner wood yelling, “Will you go silent?” So as a result, risk-taking goes up, creativity, because you’re no longer doubting every idea you have, goes up. You’re literally getting out of your own way." - Steven Kotler . #flodojo #flostagram #flostate #flowstagram #flowarts #flowartscommunity #flowlife #flowartsmovement #flow #art #lsdart #psychadelicart #experimentalart #plur #ravefamily #psyart #rave #ledorbit Follow @flo_dojo for more #floquotes . .
