1. Connecting with people in a compassionate way puts me in my flow state. 2. The faith that everything will work out no matter how challenging is what keeps me motivated to go forward.
When I’m talking to people and helping them through their struggles, I realize I can be fully immersed more than working out, more than videography which are both of my passions but Mental Health and allowing myself to be a part of someone’s life and they feel comfort talking to me and I am able to give them guidance is so amazing.
U r talk on flow state was good. As u said everyone feels at one point of time connected to one self. As with me when I talk to people just randomly I feel I get answers to my question which I get n also to the person whose speaking to me. It just gives meaning n I feel motivated
When I'm speaking in front of an audience, my words are not always mine; i am connecting with group consciousnes , and am in flow state. I am totally alert and alive , and full of energy. I have let go of ego and trust
+linda vidyashanker Lovely Video! Forgive me for chiming in, I am interested in your opinion. Have you heard the talk about - Marnaavid Unexplainable Intervention (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now)? It is a good exclusive guide for learning how to hack your flow state minus the hard work. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my friend after many years got astronomical results with it.
linda vidyashanker I too feel most alive when standing and talking in front of strangers. This is what most people fear most. I need to find a career that incorporates this, it’s a rare skill and we were meant to use it. I hope you are. I’m working on it.
1. What motivates me is making an impact, be financially free and help those struggling in life to remind them of their greatness 2. sharing wisdom and feeling belonging to a tribe
1. Knowing that everything I do (studying,...) has a purpose and that one day I`m gonna make a huge difference for the people around me. 2. I experience deep enjoyment and creativity when I watch videos (from Yes Theore for example) like this, because I love hearing meaningful quotes ( "The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others." -Mahatma Gandhi) and I feel like there are a lot of topics (optimism, meaning of time, purpose of life, inequality, selflessness,... ), Jay Shetty talks and I start thinking about. I love those kind of deep conversations/speeches/... , that make me reflect on my life and behavior. This makes me hope, that one day everything might get better in the world and it makes me happier and it helped and still helps me through my depression.
Anyone who has been in love (reciprocal), has experienced flow when they are together; that beautiful, timeless co-creation. So I got to thinking that all of life is a relational journey, so I played with it a little. I tried to practice falling in love with the most simplest and basic of experiences, like my very first cup of tea of the morning, the smell of freshly cut grass, the feel o the sun on my face (yes all those cliché things)... I practice really being still with it and embracing the experience as I would with a loved one. The result? I found the greatest of joy can be found in the smallest of things. I don’t have to be creating... it’s all the same thing... a oneness with being totally present in whatever you choose to experience. That’s on a good day though. I often forget to practice it... A LOT lol.
I feel at my highest flow state when I am travelling to a foreign country and I am having a heartfelt connection with a local person and hear about their lives.
I have always had a passion for working with and helping others. The majority of my academics have been in healthcare or human services. I completed my undergraduates in healthcare administration but found that it didn't give me the scope or fulfilment I was looking for in the helping capacity. I didn't and still don't have the stomach for seeing people injured or hurt. I decided to complete my masters in public health because it just felt right, and I learned a lot about human behavior and statistics across the world. This instilled in me a desire to work abroad. I still felt like I needed to do something so I decided to complete a masters of social work. I feel like this was the final piece of a puzzle to what I needed to learn about myself in order to fully take on the role of helping others compassionately and empathetically as a humanitarian working abroad. It's amazing how life is guiding you if only you have the ability to follow your instincts and not your mind.
I was motivated by you, man, and I'm enormously proud of you, and you're incredibly good man, we're really happy to listening to you, and we're always interested in getting new vocabulary, and great ideas from you thank you so much.
Same I have adhd and every time I talk to people and have a deep convo it makes me enjoy them and things or see them from different prospectives and understand them more and what they think and that were more alike then we are different and I felt I used to go with the flow without trying now I force things a bit because I’ve felt disconnected in a way but I see it’s to help me grow to my true purpose things change and maybe it’s for a reason I can’t ruin my flow just passing by my man my thoughts and experiences ❤️
listening/singing to music, dancing, good dates/flowing convos, art, stand up paddle boarding, free writing when I'm feeling deeply passionate, working out, being in the sun
When the typical limitations (sleep, eating, fear, etc) drop away because I'm so immersed in applying an idea or concept about how life may work and how it successfully connects to me in my life or someone else's.. and solutions come.. researching and discussing it as we apply it in the moment.. at that point it either makes perfect sense or sometimes it just feels completely wrong for me/them and we can then drop that line of thinking/direction and easily move on with letting the creativity come. I can then write and express it openly, honestly, in a relaxed yet driven state, like I'm painting a picture bringing it all together. Time just disappears. That's my flow.
i feel connected when 1. i dance 2. while treating a patient 3. while making something for someone 4. while cleaning my room i love this guy.. i cant stop editing my comment as i go ahead with the vedio.. i was just thinking, i cannot stay in that state for long and there you just said it
What motivates me is the fact that I have to stay focused to sustain life on this planet and what gives me deep enjoyment is meditating in the morning, paying homage to my ancestors and listening to the birds sing in the morning.
What motivates me is the feeling of confidence, connected, and clarity. What gives me deep enjoyment is experiencing nature, when all the noise is off and I am in my own noise box
1) Getting to have the opportunity to motivate or enhance someone else experience, motivates me. 2) One of the more interesting ways I’ve found myself in a flow state is when all of a sudden you get to come extremely close to something going horribly wrong. It’s then that you don’t think, you react instinctively and without hesitation. Then afterwards, as almost as if a byproduct of flow, you have a good good laugh. I’ve been able to enjoy some extremely different ways of being in flow my whole life leading up to going into the Marines directly after high school in 2003. Quickly retired out after two years and loosing the majority of the sight in my no dominant eye. From there at twenty years old, I became a skydive addict for the next two years. Doing 100 jumps in the first six months and 450 in the first two years. Now for the shift. I begin working sports retail. Finding a new rush in my very creative communication skills when connecting with the customers. On top of the massive risk in merchandising patterns and excelling in some very serious leadership highs in motivational moments. Four years into retail and blowing minds, I was hit on my motorcycle. Now at twenty six years old, happily married to a wife who’s five months pregnant with a boy and with a eighteen month old son together already. I’m in coma for nearly six weeks on top of paralyzing my dominant arm, lung and a laundry list of other modifications. Thankfully I had several different insurance options keeping me alive on life support and my pregnant wife was amazing at paper work. My recovery was unheard of and what was excelling me then was that at every opportunity I had to beat the odds, I did. With every test that I could find a way shock and awe, I did. My goal was to put everything back to how it was before. I can now see that what I was doing was figuring out how to operate in more of an already familiar flow state. Bypassing the the damaged prefrontal cortex due to enduring a frontal lobe TBI. After a year and a half, my wife divorced me and after two years of working, I decided it was time to take on the next path. Now I’m getting to help patients at a medical dispensary in Sedona. Applying all the skills acquired along this path to do my job. Allowing myself to be in as much of a fully aligned, flow state vortex as possible. Being able to connect and assist here has been an excellent way for me to be a servant of the light and in the most rewarding flow states I’ve ever felt in my life. One Love brother.
Parents can add so much to their children by watching and observing what their little ones gravitate towards even at a very young age. I thank my parents over and over for viewing this in me even when I was a toddler. I loved to create, art/crafting has surrounded me my entire life. This is and has been my bliss for years and even being retired from a few 9-5 jobs now it's still my main focus ...the day I pass on from this world will be the last day I create. So thinking back thru' the years my parents especially my Mother always encouraged me to follow that path, studying art in college had many professors telling me I'd never amount to much because I wouldn't do always what they thought I should be doing ...they almost killed that creativeness in me ...however Mom to the rescue always said ... just do what you like to do ...do it your way. I believed her more than those college professors Thank God! Life is believing in oneself, so many people in my life have called me crazy because I don't follow the norm but like Jay said basically observe things around you and put your spin on it ...that's so very true. Don't try and overthink it ......
When I am cooking I feel flow particularly doing something like making dill pickles, making up a new recipe. I also feel flow when I first wake up from a dream and then write the dream in a journal. When I went to the Grand Canyon I felt flow, a combination of being in an altered state of reality or awesomeness. Also when I write, particularly poetry. I am usually alone and relaxed. I do not seem to be able to feel flow when I am stressed. I love this, never knew what flow was til now. :)
1. I'm motivated by creating a life where I can feel enjoyment and freedom in what I'm doing, but also earn a living through doing it. 2. I feel most in the zone when I'm doing something creative, like movement or playing piano or free form writing.
I've been interested in doing fire performance as a more serious endeavor. After reading Gary Vaynerchuk's "Crushing It", I feel that it's entirely possible to establish a humble living through posting content related to fire performance. This would allow me to enjoy what I do, and be creative through coming up with interesting content to share across the various social platforms.
I teach a high school social and emotional learning class and I use your words a lot when teaching them about loss, resiliency, purpose, and drive. I've taken several students from all F's to all A's and I always start with a high ability, low effort task. You're right, it is very effective. Just have to get them to break their 4-minute mile like Roger Bannister. Once they realize they can do it, they apply even more effort. Thanks for all you do! You're impacting more than just your listeners.
30:00 is a good point. I used to put a lot of time/energy into focusing on a specific place, job /friendships/relationships that I would enjoy for the long term. But the reality is, jobs, friends, and even relationships often come and go. By having your OWN purposes it keeps you on track day to day, and less affected by things you can't control
I love painting with a variety of colours. For me that gets me into a zone where I'm completely in flow with being absolutely isolated from the surrounding.
1. I feel motivated when I think of my goals that I've set and written down in my journal. 2. My best ideas come up in my mind when I am in complete solitude.
My flow is when I put smiles on people face. Either by giving or encouraging in words. When I’m able to help anytime even at the expense of inconvenience. It gives my this joy I can’t comprehend.
@@breaksglasses if you go into a martial arts with the idea of your coming there just to learn to beat someones ass you are completely missing the message martial arts in general is trying to send. At the same time if u go into a fight overthinking everything that you would do if they do this or oh if they do this they fucked up cuz ill do this youll more then likely get beat up. If you dont think just feel like bruce was explaining youll be prepared for anything. Your just flowing.
I am a father of four and your words and ora have me listening> I am highly intelligent my self and just recently got sober a couple years back and still have issues like all humans. But these videos help me tremendously in this crappy visual world. Thanks for helping and showing SELF CONTROL..
I have experienced the flow state a few times, when I used to work, and at a concert, where I noticed the singer was having some problem and I took it upon myself to help and joined in on a song that I was not familiar with and I seen those vibrational brilliant musical notes. Spectacular...
When I am by myself in a room with music blaring in my ears and I am writing the next part to my story...I have spent hours doing that and I do not even realise. I only experience sheer joy and content.
1) any potential I recognize is a motivation (most frequently I've seen situations where people devalue themselves various ways: I always try to interrupt patterns and give people more options) 2) when I'm in the middle of creating art on people (mostly hair and makeup) whether solo or on a team. I recognize when magic moments happen. Its honestly what I live for. I hope to expand on this through giving people information and their actualizing power that they've misplaced in external voices.
1. Am still watching this in 2018 but I can say that I am motivated by the goals that I have and want to reach. 2. what gives me deep enjoyment is when I listen to music or spend time with my friends and listening to you .
What motivates me is love, acceptance, and appreciative of my talents.... I get in a zone when I'm emerged totally in what drives me and that's music. Repetition also helps get that engraved in my mind.
1- I am motivated by love, the love of my envisioned and desired life and improved self, so that I am able to help create a more beautiful world. 2- Dancing and music, deep talks, and unconditional love giving are what make me feel connected, in tune.
1. What motivates me is the sense of making difference in the world. 2. I am at the best when I watch this kind of inspired videos or read some inspiring. Thy jay Shetty.
I gain the most excitement when I'm asked to help with a task like writing, assisting with a move, or when I'm conducting research to solve a problem in the field of Health. In other words, I find the most joy when doing something beyond myself in service of others. * I'm not perfect...I'm growing and working through the hill and valleys life has to offer. Yet, I know helping to create joy and peace in the lives of others gives me meaning, allows me to experience hope and feel purpose.
Djjsucivuv Dhjsjducuck He has freaking awesome eyes. Don't know why you had to state your not gay, it ok to compliment the same sex dude. I also think this guy's aquarius by the way he looks and talks.
in the month of march I was completely immersed in coding, I was learning this new language called "Python" and I rem I used to practice whatever problem used to hit my mind , i will start articulating that into code , and I had to move on fast in my career so I am currently studying Cloud computing(AWS), I just left practicing python because it was very time consuming and I wasnt able to be with the other stuff. I am btech(CSE) and mba, later onwards when I was working after mba in small firm of IT , I realized my passion is IT, I couldnt realize it throughout my entire college so thats when I decided to take gap and I left the firm and now pursuing studying AWS, and already cracked two of my exams. Lets hope for the best.
I’ve recently started painting and have experienced flow while doing this. Never thought I was any good at art but I don’t really care if it’s good or not, all I know is that I enjoy it!
Great delivery. I was passively listening while doing things around the house and thinking, "I know about flow and what it is, why am I listening to this?" But sure enough, there were some golden points Jay brings up that I picked up on listening all the way through. Currently reading THINK LIKE A MONK. Good stuff
I'm in the flow right now! I was looking for an image for an article I'm writing. FB Memories just popped up with a photo I took 5 years ago that is just perfect! The next thing that happened is I felt compelled to look at a video of yours. THIS ONE is the one that was presented to me. THAT is synchronicity. THAT is FLOW. Namaste. ❤
When I am doing anything that fulfils me at a deep level. Skating, surfing, cycling, rock climbing, philosophical conversations, cooking, talking with my girlfriend, deep meditation. Things that generally challenge my coordination, creativity, problem solving, focus and intellect. Any state where the physical aligns with the emotional. But then I can skateboard without flow or I can skate with flow. For me it isn't always about the subject matter, it is about your state of mind going into that subject matter. Is it something that body and mind are both aligned with at that time. As Dr. Joe Dispenzer said, creativity happens when you merge a clear intention with an elevated emotion. Elevated emotion is very important. Without a high vibrational frequency it is hard to get into flow. For me it takes 5 to 10 minutes to get into flow when I meditate, but sometimes much longer if my amygdala is running the show and the Neo cortex is seriously offline. That's my 10 cents! Thanks for the great video. Great information!!
i feel flow when i mix advance dribbing, shaking and baking , shoot the basketball, shooting threes, half court shots, tear drops, fade aways. i love it cause it liberating when you get to exercise. And the more you practice, and follow the techniques the more you make the shots and its fair and wont get u frustrated.
I’m motivated when my enthusiasm is matched by someone else... whatever topic.. if the person is engaged and asking questions and there is an exchange then I can share ideas and absorb that persons energy in a positive way.... most people don’t give out... they talk about themselves and never ask about another... I LOVE TWO SIDED CONVOS.
1) I want to help people 2) When I am working and helping people (I zone out when I am with my clients and the only thing I can see and hear them). I like seeing an epiphany in their eyes when I share something that is specific to them. When I connect to them in a way that no one has connect with them or can relate to them.
1. What motivates me the most is when I did not understand anything and after researching I get the clear about that thing. 2. I find understanding Sessions interesting.
I feel flow when I am immersed in conversation with my clients. There is a voice that comes through me and it becomes surreal when I open myself to allow it to channel through me to the person I am mentoring.
Making/mixing music with Garage Band, a talent I discovered in my 50's - obsessed to the point of spending 16 hrs a day at it, no idea of time, even forgetting to eat! It saved my sanity. Now, mid 60's, I write (less time tho and more food).
You are great. You are fundamentally explaining the real understanding of involvement where we forget even ourself and just be with that particular thing. Great videos. Thank you for sharing.
(excuse my English) Amazing, i was talking to a friend about what is that which makes me feel alive... I made up some sort of explanation trying to define that fantastic state, now i know how its called: flow. I love flow, it is addictive haha Thank you for teaching me the name, now i can lable it and aim for it in a much clearer way.
When 🏊🏾♀️’m & mediation 🧘🏽♂️in the zone love Jay Shetty. Totally chanced my mind life & got me through my divorce through depression & giving me reason too be happy 😁god bless u Jay 🙏🤟🏾❤️
When I was a child I would speak my train of thoughts out loud and dive into each place my thoughts branched off to. I always was in flow doing this until I got older and became too self-conscious to do it often though I sometimes still do this in the car when I know I'm alone and won't be overheard or seen. Aslo when I'm doing my hair or makeup and I'm not in a hurry or don't have to get it done for any particular reason, just to play and experiment.
When I'm in a positive environment all vibes seems to bring the best out of your being you feel your greatest self when you say yes these are the kind of people where I belong
1. Connecting with people in a compassionate way puts me in my flow state.
2. The faith that everything will work out no matter how challenging is what keeps me motivated to go forward.
When I’m talking to people and helping them through their struggles, I realize I can be fully immersed more than working out, more than videography which are both of my passions but Mental Health and allowing myself to be a part of someone’s life and they feel comfort talking to me and I am able to give them guidance is so amazing.
It starts at 9:20 to get the "how to" get into flow.
U r talk on flow state was good. As u said everyone feels at one point of time connected to one self. As with me when I talk to people just randomly I feel I get answers to my question which I get n also to the person whose speaking to me. It just gives meaning n I feel motivated

1) An exchange of good ideas and ways to apply them to life motivates me.
2) Dance, running, and reading sends me into the the flow state.

Connection with the Super Conscious is what I think of it to be. Higher Self and such. You can also do telekinesis while in that state.

2. I feel most in the zone when I'm doing something creative, like movement or playing piano or free form writing.
Daniel Efford creativity is everything for me
Me too. So what is the career that helps you achieve all this.
I've been interested in doing fire performance as a more serious endeavor. After reading Gary Vaynerchuk's "Crushing It", I feel that it's entirely possible to establish a humble living through posting content related to fire performance. This would allow me to enjoy what I do, and be creative through coming up with interesting content to share across the various social platforms.
I teach a high school social and emotional learning class and I use your words a lot when teaching them about loss, resiliency, purpose, and drive. I've taken several students from all F's to all A's and I always start with a high ability, low effort task. You're right, it is very effective. Just have to get them to break their 4-minute mile like Roger Bannister. Once they realize they can do it, they apply even more effort. Thanks for all you do! You're impacting more than just your listeners.
30:00 is a good point. I used to put a lot of time/energy into focusing on a specific place, job /friendships/relationships that I would enjoy for the long term. But the reality is, jobs, friends, and even relationships often come and go. By having your OWN purposes it keeps you on track day to day, and less affected by things you can't control
Dancing is what puts me in the flow state
Nadine M. Me too!!
Yes me too
Nadine M. Hey!! Same pinch..😄🤭❤️
I love painting with a variety of colours. For me that gets me into a zone where I'm completely in flow with being absolutely isolated from the surrounding.
1. I feel motivated when I think of my goals that I've set and written down in my journal.
2. My best ideas come up in my mind when I am in complete solitude.
When I'm writing. Suddenly , my hand is writing down things having nothing to do with my thoughts
1) freedom motivates me
2) I feel in the zone when what I am doing is what I want to be doing. Intentions are clear!
When i'm getting information on a topic i'am interested in like this video .
My flow is when I put smiles on people face. Either by giving or encouraging in words. When I’m able to help anytime even at the expense of inconvenience. It gives my this joy I can’t comprehend.
"Don't think, feel"
ok how do you do that in martial arts? if you don't think about it and just feel you will feel the ass beating for sure
Michael Jackson said that everyday it is how he danced
Rustyhound good Bruce Lee
@@breaksglasses if you go into a martial arts with the idea of your coming there just to learn to beat someones ass you are completely missing the message martial arts in general is trying to send. At the same time if u go into a fight overthinking everything that you would do if they do this or oh if they do this they fucked up cuz ill do this youll more then likely get beat up. If you dont think just feel like bruce was explaining youll be prepared for anything. Your just flowing.
@@hollycline2427 you do realise that this originated from Bruce Lee right?
Sitting with my brothers,cooking for them talking knowing that everything is ok and smoking weed and just been in Zen ...makes me happy
I am a father of four and your words and ora have me listening> I am highly intelligent my self and just recently got sober a couple years back and still have issues like all humans. But these videos help me tremendously in this crappy visual world. Thanks for helping and showing SELF CONTROL..
I have experienced the flow state a few times, when I used to work, and at a concert, where I noticed the singer was having some problem and I took it upon myself to help and joined in on a song that I was not familiar with and I seen those vibrational brilliant musical notes. Spectacular...
When I am by myself in a room with music blaring in my ears and I am writing the next part to my story...I have spent hours doing that and I do not even realise. I only experience sheer joy and content.
1) any potential I recognize is a motivation (most frequently I've seen situations where people devalue themselves various ways: I always try to interrupt patterns and give people more options)
2) when I'm in the middle of creating art on people (mostly hair and makeup) whether solo or on a team. I recognize when magic moments happen. Its honestly what I live for. I hope to expand on this through giving people information and their actualizing power that they've misplaced in external voices.
I get into the flow when a research is discussed and analysed. The euphoria of deciphering the solution is immeasurable.
10 percent.
I flow when I'm listening to music and writing my poetry. It brings me utter joy!!!
I feel highly connected and immersed when i discuss topics related to philosophy and literature, also when I listen to a successful creative person .
I experience it when I am writing while listening to music. Music gets me into a flow state and writing is my love.
Writing or typing?
Admirable speakers are God's gift to the people. My favourite speaker Jay genius
how can he speak in such a flow without even resting his mouth? His speeches sound so flawless.
Just immersed in your words... and love that Landon Asian accent! Much appreciated!Bless You! Regards from São Paulo, Brasil! :)
1. Am still watching this in 2018 but I can say that I am motivated by the goals that I have and want to reach. 2. what gives me deep enjoyment is when I listen to music or spend time with my friends and listening to you .
No I only listen to Jay Shetty. How I found you I do not know but I am so blessed to have found you.
What motivates me is love, acceptance, and appreciative of my talents.... I get in a zone when I'm emerged totally in what drives me and that's music. Repetition also helps get that engraved in my mind.
1- I am motivated by love, the love of my envisioned and desired life and improved self, so that I am able to help create a more beautiful world.
2- Dancing and music, deep talks, and unconditional love giving are what make me feel connected, in tune.
1. What motivates me is the sense of making difference in the world.
2. I am at the best when I watch this kind of inspired videos or read some inspiring.
Thy jay Shetty.
I gain the most excitement when I'm asked to help with a task like writing, assisting with a move, or when I'm conducting research to solve a problem in the field of Health.
In other words, I find the most joy when doing something beyond myself in service of others. * I'm not perfect...I'm growing and working through the hill and valleys life has to offer.
Yet, I know helping to create joy and peace in the lives of others gives me meaning, allows me to experience hope and feel purpose.
No homo but this dude has good eye structure and color
Djjsucivuv Dhjsjducuck
He has freaking awesome eyes.
Don't know why you had to state your not gay, it ok to compliment the same sex dude.
I also think this guy's aquarius by the way he looks and talks.
lil homo lamooo
GHEY!
You don’t have to be sexually attracted to someone to notice that they are or have attractive attributes
They're beautiful!
Dancing with salsa bachata meringue connects and travel chanting🥰
in the month of march I was completely immersed in coding, I was learning this new language called "Python" and I rem I used to practice whatever problem used to hit my mind , i will start articulating that into code , and I had to move on fast in my career so I am currently studying Cloud computing(AWS), I just left practicing python because it was very time consuming and I wasnt able to be with the other stuff. I am btech(CSE) and mba, later onwards when I was working after mba in small firm of IT , I realized my passion is IT, I couldnt realize it throughout my entire college so thats when I decided to take gap and I left the firm and now pursuing studying AWS, and already cracked two of my exams. Lets hope for the best.
I’ve recently started painting and have experienced flow while doing this. Never thought I was any good at art but I don’t really care if it’s good or not, all I know is that I enjoy it!
Great delivery. I was passively listening while doing things around the house and thinking, "I know about flow and what it is, why am I listening to this?" But sure enough, there were some golden points Jay brings up that I picked up on listening all the way through. Currently reading THINK LIKE A MONK. Good stuff
Been blessed to be in flow with teaching, dancing, and when I'm creating as a designer
I'm in the flow right now! I was looking for an image for an article I'm writing. FB Memories just popped up with a photo I took 5 years ago that is just perfect! The next thing that happened is I felt compelled to look at a video of yours. THIS ONE is the one that was presented to me.
THAT is synchronicity. THAT is FLOW. Namaste. ❤
I'm motivated everyday by the thought "I want me to prove myself that I can "
I’m in flow state training everyday, although I didn’t enjoying it at all, but when I finished the training I feel so good and with energy.
When I am doing anything that fulfils me at a deep level. Skating, surfing, cycling, rock climbing, philosophical conversations, cooking, talking with my girlfriend, deep meditation. Things that generally challenge my coordination, creativity, problem solving, focus and intellect. Any state where the physical aligns with the emotional. But then I can skateboard without flow or I can skate with flow. For me it isn't always about the subject matter, it is about your state of mind going into that subject matter. Is it something that body and mind are both aligned with at that time. As Dr. Joe Dispenzer said, creativity happens when you merge a clear intention with an elevated emotion. Elevated emotion is very important. Without a high vibrational frequency it is hard to get into flow. For me it takes 5 to 10 minutes to get into flow when I meditate, but sometimes much longer if my amygdala is running the show and the Neo cortex is seriously offline. That's my 10 cents! Thanks for the great video. Great information!!
i feel flow when i mix advance dribbing, shaking and baking , shoot the basketball, shooting threes, half court shots, tear drops, fade aways. i love it cause it liberating when you get to exercise. And the more you practice, and follow the techniques the more you make the shots and its fair and wont get u frustrated.
I’m motivated when my enthusiasm is matched by someone else... whatever topic.. if the person is engaged and asking questions and there is an exchange then I can share ideas and absorb that persons energy in a positive way.... most people don’t give out... they talk about themselves and never ask about another... I LOVE TWO SIDED CONVOS.
1) I want to help people
2) When I am working and helping people (I zone out when I am with my clients and the only thing I can see and hear them). I like seeing an epiphany in their eyes when I share something that is specific to them. When I connect to them in a way that no one has connect with them or can relate to them.
Currently I am in flow state to finding some reality and easy ways to be in this kind of flow state everytime I like; in every work I need !
I feel totally involved when I'm writing music.
OMG!!! This is the best, most practical, most relatable talk I have ever seen and listened! Thank you so much for this Jay! 🙏💞🙌
1. What motivates me the most is when I did not understand anything and after researching I get the clear about that thing.
2. I find understanding Sessions interesting.
I feel flow when I am immersed in conversation with my clients. There is a voice that comes through me and it becomes surreal when I open myself to allow it to channel through me to the person I am mentoring.
Sewing and embroidery are my happy place. And on the rare occasions when my hubby and I are actually spending time out doing things together.
Thank you for this inspiration! Jay gives words of clarity and is genuinely encouraging.
My work, doing things that take me closer to my goals, doing things that help me connect & smile inside all motivate me
i love learning about flow - i think i used to associate it as becoming loopy. choreographing sweeps me into another dimension.
Putting a smile and hope really motivate me
POWERFUL, JAY. THANKS FOR BEING THERE.
I like Jay Shetty. He has good energy.
What motivates me is excitement of learning something new but having a deep connection with it and having clock mentally and physically.
What motivates me is the unknown, curiosity
Dude please be more famous!!! The whole world should see videos and advice that you give, they really help people.
Lots of blessings to you Jay!
1. Truth motivates me deeply 2. when i can share Wisdom, help someone, fight something. Be the difference to someone, even to myself.
My flow is when I’m playing basketball, or sports in general.
Thank you for this video!
One of the best podcast! Thank you!
Making/mixing music with Garage Band, a talent I discovered in my 50's - obsessed to the point of spending 16 hrs a day at it, no idea of time, even forgetting to eat! It saved my sanity. Now, mid 60's, I write (less time tho and more food).
Thank you Jay Shetty for sharing some great advice and wisdom!
You are great.
You are fundamentally explaining the real understanding of involvement where we forget even ourself and just be with that particular thing.
Great videos.
Thank you for sharing.
(excuse my English)
Amazing, i was talking to a friend about what is that which makes me feel alive... I made up some sort of explanation trying to define that fantastic state, now i know how its called: flow. I love flow, it is addictive haha
Thank you for teaching me the name, now i can lable it and aim for it in a much clearer way.
Thanks Jay you are real teacher
When 🏊🏾♀️’m & mediation 🧘🏽♂️in the zone love Jay Shetty. Totally chanced my mind life & got me through my divorce through depression & giving me reason too be happy 😁god bless u Jay 🙏🤟🏾❤️
When I was a child I would speak my train of thoughts out loud and dive into each place my thoughts branched off to. I always was in flow doing this until I got older and became too self-conscious to do it often though I sometimes still do this in the car when I know I'm alone and won't be overheard or seen. Aslo when I'm doing my hair or makeup and I'm not in a hurry or don't have to get it done for any particular reason, just to play and experiment.
When I'm in a positive environment all vibes seems to bring the best out of your being you feel your greatest self when you say yes these are the kind of people where I belong
1. I’m motivated by making a difference in someone’s life
1.when somethings become dire or inescapable. 2. Depending on situations (in solitude left alone to think out or in a group brainstorming)
When I'm dancing, doing choreography and poetry.
1) Motivated by the desire to show others wrong
2) I feel in the zone when I am in nature and listening to music.
FLOW... When you perform an act with love, the effort is never felt...This is FLOW for me.
100%
