Get the FREE One-Month Day checklist here: www.flowstate.com/onemonthday Rían here. Thanks for watching. The flow channel is unbelievably powerful. When you expand it, there’s virtually no limit to what you can take on. Forget feeling overwhelmed. With the science-backed techniques in this PDF, you can explode your flow channel permanently by exceeding a month’s worth of work in less than a day.

Hey, the photo of William James was actually a photo of Freud. Just letting you know.

[@md82892]

Here is a summary of the key points from the video: The video discusses the phenomenon of "hysterical strength," where people are able to exhibit extreme, superhuman strength in life-threatening situations due to a flood of adrenaline. This reveals that humans are capable of handling much more than we think. It introduces the concept of the "flow channel," the optimal state of challenge-skills balance where we experience peak performance and flow. The width of the flow channel determines how much challenge we can take on while remaining in flow. Most people have a narrow flow channel, meaning they can only access flow under limited, ideal conditions. However, it's possible to rapidly "explode" your flow channel and greatly expand your capacity to handle responsibility and challenge while accessing flow. The process for exploding your flow channel involves: 1. Overload - Take on 10x more responsibility than you're handling now, to an almost unfathomable degree. This intensity forces an expansion of capacity. 2. Adapt - Deploy all your skills and resources to handle the overload. This cracks open latent resilience reserves you didn't know you had. 3. Deload - Drop back down to your original workload level. Now everything feels smooth and easy compared to the overload. Overloading, adapting, and deloading stretches your flow channel permanently. A workload that used to be overwhelming now allows you to access flow. This expansion of capacity enables greater performance and responsibility.

Another point I'd like to add on increasing the zone of focus - Start doing things imperfectly Let me explain it to you with an example: Let's say you're only able to get into low state when you sit in your cubicle and wear a certain type of formal wear. Now your brain is programmed in search a way that you're only going to get in the flow state if these conditions are met and it isn't going to get in the flow state if the conditions are not met. So if you want to increase your zone of focus you can start things imperfectly by changing the conditions and the surroundings. You can get ready in your pyjamas at home and try to focus. Initially wont be able to tap into the flow state but overtime within a few days you will be able to do it. And finally there will be a time when you'll be able to tap into your low state literally just after waking up because your body's trained to get into flow state without adjusting a lot of external variables!

[@Knightcommander69]

Wow. Really blew my mind with this one. I 100% agree, the human mind can adapt when pushed properly. I remember being terrified of cold calling for business. It would take me an hour to build up the courage to do one. Then I set myself a goal of doing 30, back to back without stopping. It was very hard the first time, but I found it much easier to just do it, and I became significantly more skilled than those around me. I would have a quick break by walking around the block a few times and focusing on breathing. Then I would go back and do another 30 none stop, rinse and repeat. I managed to get to doing well over 100 calls a day, in a very competitive tech sales role where my co-workers maybe did 10. Magnified over weeks, I was doing 100x more than anyone else, and outperforming everyone. When I was getting too much business in, I dialled back the prospecting, just doing 30 calls a day instead of 120 was like child's play. And I was still doing 3x more than anyone else.

One time I hit an Elk in Colorado and it flew through the air and landed right in the middle of the highway. A semi was coming and I worried it would get in an accident trying to miss the dead Elk. I sprinted out, grabbed it by the back hoof, and moved it to the side of the road. I didn't even feel the weight or rather it felt like lifting a feather.

[@winumoritribe8425]

Engineer time! she did not lift a 3,300lb car. HOWEVER. Not downplaying the feat. But here are the numbers. The 64 Chevrolet Impala SS (likely to be worked on by a car enthusiast) weighs 3,700 lbs (we'll say 3,300.) Every inch the car gets off the ground, is another x pounds she has to lift. Now, I couldn't find the stat for that specific spring, but I can extrapolate via the halfweight (Same way we add unsprung mass to the wheels; half the weight of the suspension arm is counted as unsprung.) 3,300/2=1650 Assuming a 40/60 balance to the front for the engine, that's 80% of 1650 or 1320 lbs supported by the rear springs. now, assuming that the spring rests at 50%, which is not common but it's the benefit of the doubt in her favor, at (Rear Spring Relaxed Length:) 16.44 inches, 50% is 8.22 inches, so the car is putting 1650/8.22lbs of force per inch of spring or 200lbs per inch. A very soft spring. So for every inch she lifted the rear end of the car, 200 lbs. I think she would've been able to lift 2-4 inches off the ground, enough to get the kid out, but she did NOT lift 3,300lbs of american steel. Sorry to be a killjoy, but look at it this way, that's still 400-800 lbs. (This assumes the front suspension was not functional and entirely rigid as otherwise it would be sprung mass and I wouldn't be able to do the calculation as i'm not that advanced yet lol).

I ve been doing this since my Secondary School days. Got always overloaded during math and science academic competetions though I always ending up losing the competetions due to some geniuses in my generation. Then when I graduated and got into college to study Engineering, Every Math, Engineering Subjects, Physics are so easy. It seems that during the overloads I experience on my competitions expanded my flowstate for learning. And as an Engineer with lot of responsibs I still practice this overloading up to this day. I practice overloading once a week,During weekends, I study or work on 2 different designs in parallel, and I add some chaos like listening to dubstep or anything catchy. So that when I get to a stressful environment at work (I work at Power Plant) I can adapt easily and activate my flowstate quickly.

Super insightful as always! I've found Overload-Adapt-Deload works in a different context-- while lifting at gym-- In a single set, it's possible you're not lifting your max weight-- only made noticeable when you consciously go for weights seemingly bigger than you can handle-- and then when you go back to what you were lifting before they feel so light! Excited to try this out in every area e.g. social situations, not just at work!

[@Alister843]

Hey Rían, a question on the practical use of this with the balance of risk. If you do overload yourself to achieve higher levels of achievability, how do you manage the risk involved if the goals that you have set are too high? Let's say the overload was too much and failure of the task could have mjor consequences. Also, how would you know when to implement this 3 step overloading and deloading system? Would it be a question of how much stress one feels that they are under?
