The Secret to Happiness Is Being in a Flow State for 3 Hours per Day
I’m a pretty sh*t writer and I’m okay with that.
Flow states are the secret to life.
If I could only offer one piece of life-changing advice before I die it would be this. The feeling of bliss comes from the work you do. As you do the work you experience the sensation of progress.
Progress gives you a natural high.
No sugar. No naughty videos. No Netflix. No alcohol. No drugs. Flow states are a drug that offers real happiness.
We are happiest and most aligned in our flow state. Natural state of being — Godis Oya
Don’t wait for inspiration
Flow states are where your work feels effortless and hours pass by, yet it feels like only minutes have gone by.
Being in a flow state every day can feel hard. How do you access it?
Rock legend Paul McCartney showed me. In this video of him at 26 he starts a recording session with no ideas for a song.
Not long after a hit single is born.
Paul didn’t sit there and wait for inspiration to hit him. No.
