Have you ever had moments when the world falls away, and you're entirely in the 'now'?

This isn't just a fleeting feeling but a scientifically backed phenomenon known as 'flow', first identified by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi.

The Inseparable Bond Between Risk, Life & Flow

Last week, I learned more about the profound connection between risk and life and the thread that runs through the very fabric of our existence.

Let's start with a bold statement: The best athletes who compete at the top level know their skill set inside out. They understand their strengths and where they can add value to their teams. 

In my pursuit of mastering the state of flow, I needed to understand the dynamics of my ego and the narratives weaving in my mind that were helping or hindering flow. 

My perspective on flow as something we "dial-up" rather than an on-off switch, as I described in Managing The Mist (2013) is in line with much of the current understanding of flow states. 

I will share 4 principles for deeper flow and meaningful living in this blog

"Managing The Mist" isn't just about harnessing the power of flow for professional excellence.

I will share when I nearly lost it and got the mist last week.

Navigating the demands and challenges of life often feels like trying to peer through a foggy window.

My journey with "Managing The Mist" has illuminated a path to profound clarity within this chaos.

As a coach and in the business world, I've seen this sh*t show many times.

My mind is constantly pulling me towards doing something else - anything else! It's like a never-ending game of mental tug-of-war.
But I've learned that being present and focused on the current moment is the key to feeling happier and more grounded.
