BEST MOMENTS
"Flow, scientifically, if we're defining it, technically, it's an optimal state of consciousness where we feel our best and we perform our best."
"On average, it was 500% more productive. That's a giant, extraordinary thing."
"When I'm at my best, I'm in this altered state of consciousness where every decision, every action flows seamlessly, perfectly, effortlessly from the last."
"Time is a calculation performed all over the prefrontal cortex. It's a network, basically. And as that network collapses, like any network, we lose our ability to separate past from present and future."
