It’s amazing how much of our lives is striving to achieve flow.
Then, when we find it, it’s not something we’re wholly aware of, so… it flows away as easily as it came.

Marcus Buckingham and Danny McCall have both done incredible work in studying people who are ultra-performers in their craft. From bartenders to CEO’s. If we are to spend most of our lives looking for joy and “the longing for love, and the struggle for the legal tender”, it is paramount we learn to embrace those moments of flow, and extend them within our lives.
