Now that I've seen this and looked back on my life, I've realized how often I've managed to get into my flow. For my whole life, I've been able to zone out and come up with whole stories. I think the reason why I'm so good at drama is because I can get into my flow. Thanks for helping me realize how gifted I am!
Thanks for the Video clip! Apologies for chiming in, I would love your initial thoughts. Have you ever tried - Marnaavid Unexplainable Intervention (search on google)? It is a good exclusive guide for learning how to hack your flow state without the normal expense. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my old buddy Taylor at very last got astronomical success with it.
What I like the most about your videos is how they bring up a lot of less known philosophical concepts. I figure you must be reading a lot to make these. It would be nice if you could mention some of the references and lectures behind each of these in the comments for the readers who want to dig a bit further. For instance, the concept of connecting knowledge and seeking out the adjacent possible by Steven Johnson is really worth reading into.
As an artist I find the flow state has a somewhat elusive property to it. I can never force it, it comes unexpected. Definitely something that has to be allowed rather than controlled. Its a lot like being an antenna with bad reception.
+Maxwell hanson I've felt the flow state a couple of times and I think there's a way to trigger those episodes of awareness with deep concentration, something like meditation but aimed to art. I'm trying to find the unleashing drive that works for me. I might come back in a couple of months spreading all my epiphanies. :3
Jason, you describe exactly what "the flow" is. Control and let go, then everything emerges. Imagination breaks the limit of knowledge and experience and inspire re-creation. It's like opening the boundaries between the individual body/mind and the energy we're part of. Just let the energy of life flow through us, become one with that energy until we feel awe and we are born. Then it hurts, so we know it's time to interrupt the flow, control again, and it's like dying. Until we'll be born again. It's a cycle one can learn to access better and better.
Sometimes Jason Silva is so inspiring that the beauty of what he's talking about saddens me. That existential bummer so to speak. Have a good day everyone!
The thing I love about Jason Silva is that he really gives you a different feeling behind every big idea out there. Even though no idea is actually subjected to its own feeling or emotion, it helps create and inspire new idea's. This is very important, Because I can bet you, if he started doing video's on some of the same ideas. But putting different feelings behind it, you would feel like your watching it all over again, and that its a brand new idea! Cheers! thanks for the Vid.
I have come back to these videos just to say thank you. These videos, and ones you have made in the past have inspired me to such an amazing degree. I now know what I want to study, I now know who I want to be, and it was all from finding your videos and being struck by such.. awe inspiring ideas, it was almost like I had no choice in the matter. Thank you, Mr. Silva. You are an amazing human being.
I'm more confused on how to "get out of the mind"? I thought that I was a mesh of my body/mind/consciousness? In every experience I've had of this world there have been: this sensory neuron system that informs me (eyes, ears, tongue, etc), a matrix of interneurons (a brain with a "me" as the pilot), and the brain commands motor neurons (muscles) to do its bidding..
Flowww Stateee...How beautiful that is. Can you imagine that? I feel that it is impossible we evolved from a single microorganism, we are sculptured. There must be a "Great Artist" out there. I just feel that.
Fantastic. I love it when I am writing and something just clicks and suddenly I am seemingly writing without thought. I am in this state where nothing can go wrong and the words are beautiful. But I can't figure out what makes me get into my flow state. I don't know what triggers it.
Very inspiring how you seem to flow with your thoughts. Love Listening to people that get excited, and inspire themselves just from thought. Keep up the great work!!
Truly incredible! Beautiful creations happen from flow state and we must harness that amazing state of being and use it to contribute to the world if we can and inspire others to do the same! Some of my most greatest contributions to the world has been from moments of flow state. Yes!
This is soooooooooo goooddd, inspiring, motivating, mind-expanding, uplifting beyond words, u blow up my heart and make me want to storm out the door and push myself until im the best fucking me i can possible be. THANK YOU
Jason Silva! I love listening to you! you create a hyper motivational way of thinking. you inspire! keep it going Jason Im watching. Its great to love what you study and letting the world around you what you discover.
my main creative outlet is guitar and when i'm improvising you don't think about what you're gonna do next your hands take over and then you decide on whether what you found was worth writing down :P
Flow is the place where dreams are born. 'We are such stuff as dreams are made on, and our little life is rounded with a sleep." (Shakespeare - The Tempest)
the flow state is the most fascinating thing i've come upon so far.. no words, it just.. flows.... ur so fucking cool for putting all of this out there, i hope your words can inspire people across the world, we need it more than ever now!!!
Very inspirational and great video. High level martial artist are said to be able to control their flow state and go into it at will. I like to believe that's true. Also I like your bag. Where did you get it?
Jason, I want to know more about the frame you have in this video at 1:11 ... Can you tell me the source... I'm keen to know more about it... as its somewhat related to my life...
The coolest part about this video is seeing Jason experience his own flow state right before our eyes.

the way he talks is sooo captivating.

He was in his flow state right there

+Maxwell hanson It can be manipulated to work as and when you want it to, though.
+Maxwell hanson Agreed. It's like chasing a butterfly that keeps flying off

I agree with you, because I've done the same thing and just let my hand do its movements being directed by my mind.

What makes Jason Silva a world class speaker is his passion and enthusiasm about the possible adjacent. His enthusiasm is contagious.
Sometimes Jason Silva is so inspiring that the beauty of what he's talking about saddens me. That existential bummer so to speak. Have a good day everyone!
His mom was my senior English teacher, and she's amazing. It runs in the family.
As an artist, I can tell you it is more about hard work then just creativity.
His channel needs more publicity! The videos are so amazing that i feel sorry for every person who misses out on them.
Why does this only have 74,000 views!?
Inspirational and contagious passion for what you love.
Keep it up Jason.

Jason Silva have the capacity
to connect to our human brain in such a brilliant and amazing way...!!!
I've been in this state before! Never knew there was a name for it.. It's a very powerful yet natural feeling once it's achieved.
I've watched about a DOZEN of your short videos tonight and I continue to be AWED by your F L O W and WORDS that pour forth with such CREATIVITY!
I wish you had like hour long videos. Every time I tune in I'm inspired to make my dreams a reality.
Its ALL about letting go :) get out of the mind, thats where the magic is :)
Artists Resource please explain letting go . I am very confused

Well articulated and well delivered.
