Modern distractions and social media judgment make flow harder to reach. Constant notifications feed an impulsive mind, while fear of judgment about aging and changing bodies keeps you anxious and pulled away from deep focus.
I look at society and it feels like it's more and more challenging to tap into a flow state because there's more and more things that pull you away from it. There's more and more things that feed your impulsive mind. I think the impulsive mind is the opposite of a flow state. Is it just me that feel— do you feel the same way?
I think it's true, and I think there's a lot more judgment out there today. You could be on social media and you're getting judgment about what you should think or what you should feel or what you should look like, and that judgment is what triggers that fear. It comes back to those same things. It's gonna be changed, it's gonna happen. You're gonna change, you're gonna get older, taller, different looking, your voice is gonna change. And the question is, how do you deal with it?
