    The worst thing is when you enter the flow state, outplay someone, and then break yourself out of it accidentally by thinking how good that play was.

      Beans Theorem same for When something bad happends, If you can think in a way where u realise it was just an event that made it Harder for you to reach the objective, and channel your energy Into «Whats Next, what are the actions i can do to win» instead og resentment and anger, Its going to skyrocket your individual performance.

      Beans Theorem i kind of learned How to do it during a few months where i had a heartbreak, and needed to shift my mind away from it, for a few hours everyday i would be so far gone Into the game i wouldnt notice somone talking to me or entering the room, and i went from being stuck ranked as a top 25% player to a top 0,9% in a few weeks. If u can reach flow, Its really op.

      Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise?
      I thought not. It's not a story the Jedi would tell you. It's a Sith legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and so wise he could use the Force to influence the midichlorians to create life... He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying. The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful... the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. It's ironic he could save others from death, but not himself.

    As a competitive swimmer, I can’t even imagine or try to come up with the number of times this has happened during or right before a race. Normally I’d enter the zone the second I head the beep signaling to go sounded. The second my hands touched the water all I could feel was how it moved around me. Didn’t have to think about breathing, or about my aching muscles. It’s like when I dove in everything about me would just kind of fall away and I’d just be there swimming as fast as I could. It really is such an amazing feeling. Man I miss the water and the tension of seeing who you’d swim against before a race. Those were some amazing times in my life. Hopefully I can swim again soon haha

      I had this happen to me several times in basketball. It's very similar to how they depict it in movies in some regards. With the muffled sounds and time slowing. It seems the brain goes into some very selective type of awareness, since it feels like you're actually tunneling, but you're aware at the same time. Weird sensation. Also, in some of those instances, I did things I couldn't before, like grab a rebound at a "near impossible" height. It reminded me of those events where mothers would lift cars that pinned their child and things like that.
      When it comes to games, even though the only game I played at a competitive level was Quake, I rarely reached flow state in it. HOWEVER, I can reach it every time in a bullet hell game lol. I don't even play those often and I am bad at them, but somehow, every time I play, I just get in that slowed down, gliding type of gameplay where I avoid everything. I think I had that in guitar hero as well. Perhaps the format helps.

I started to lose enjoyment playing normally online now though. I yearn for more esports environment but I dont even intend to play professionally but the esport environment is so much fun. Probably because it actually puts you into the flow state most of the time unless a brain dead team is actually smurfing the whole rookie tournament.

Upgrading internet is not a choice, when the location itself is not supported by the internet provider or deemed as a risk or a lost for the company. switch to another provider? what other provider? Switch to 5g broadband? Out of the frying pan and into the fire? Internet service provided in my area is still using copper cable while the town across the small river is already using optic fibre. It's not that I don't upgrade. It's I CAN'T. So no money doesn't solve everything.

I picked of each player one by one with a bow and used the natural cover to perfection each kill was fluid and my movements where without fault, I won the 1v4 whilst taking little to no damage and doing it all in around 20 seconds.

I didn't have to think about any of the moves I was making, I just made them as if it was second nature to peek that corner or frag that doorway or blow that wall.

    Whenever I play search and destroy and I see 1v5 or 1v6 I’m just so accustomed to it that I almost automatically go into flow state. The speech over the game becomes gibberish, everything goes blank other than the game. My friends say I’m clutch but I just enjoy that feeling, at this point I almost like the pressure it almost pushes me to do better. I do fail a lot and there’s always room for improvement but it’s a lesson I learned in gaming that I brought into the real life and has helped me all the way. Never let your ego get the best of you, it might’ve been the best clutch or the best sale you ever made and it’s good to be happy that’s part of the natural high but don’t get cocky, be humble and put in the work. Life will treat you well even with the guaranteed ups and downs.

    I really like how he introduced this seemingly unrelated idea to the gaming community. It was a good way to take two different lines of thought and combine them to benefit the thinking people and the playing people, many times both are exercised by the same person.

      Yes, highly agree. I played every last souls games From software threw at us and enjoyed every last minute of me getting my ass kicked. Its those small tweaks you adjust to improve yourself in situations every time you failed lol and in the end, once you beat a boss that feeling is the best ever.
