Episode 108: Steven Kotler – Your Flow State: What Is It? How To Get There… Steven Kotler is a remarkable leader… I really appreciate that he’s actively seeking out opportunities to get to his “flow” state. Your flow state is your optimal level of consciousness. On this episode, I learned a great deal about being in flow and finding ways to get there more often. We had a fascinating conversation on this episode of The Learning Leader Show. Steven Kotler is a New York Times bestselling author, an award-winning journalist and the cofounder/director of research for the Flow Genome Project. He is one of the world’s leading experts on ultimate human performance. His latest work, Bold was called a “visionary roadmap for change,” by President Bill Clinton and spent many weeks atop both the New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestseller lists. His previous book, The Rise of Superman, was one of the most talked about books in 2013 and the first book in history to land on national bestseller lists in the sports, science, and business categories simultaneously. In it, Steven decodes the science of flow, an optimal state of consciousness where we feel our best and perform our best. Episode 108: Steven Kotler – Your Flow State: What Is It?
