How To Get Into A Flow State

ACTIONABLE STEP: Watch the video in full screen, look into the eyes of Hamza, and  take notes.

STEP 1: What is a flow state. 

• The major benefit of flow state is happiness: “A wondering mind is an unhappy  mind.”

• We should not be inactive, and lazy. We should destroy the “anti-work” culture. • What really makes you happy is: mindfulness, good sleep, good diet, social  connection, kindness, and flow state.

ACTIONABLE STEP: Search “Mike Tyson belt garbage” on YouTube, watch the video,  and think about your goals. Write them down and distinguish internal versus external  goals. Then, write down the major tasks that you currently do to achieve your goals,  and ask yourself “Is that a genuine flow state activity or not? Am in the zone for that  task?”

STEP 2: How to get into a flow state. 

• You can do a week of work in one day if you are in a flow state. • All glory goes to number one. The flow state is your competitive advantage. • Minimize flow blockers (e.g., thoughts, memories, other people, task switching,  poor diet and sleep, technology, YouTube, etc.).

• Diet and sleep are the two biggest killers to productivity. Eating carbs make you  weak, lethargic, and brain fog.

• Technology is also one of the worst flow blockers. Use YouTube as a search  engine instead of a distracting app.

ACTIONABLE STEP: Disable notifications on your phone. Get into do not disturb or  airplane mode. This actionable task will save you over a decade.

Step 3: Preparing for flow. 

• We need to prepare for work as we warm up for workouts. First, clarify exactly  what task it is that you are going to do. Then, have everything digitally and  physically ready.

ACTIONABLE STEP: Have a step-by-step checklist of what your work preparation could be.

• As soon as you get distracted, just refocus on the work. Keep refocusing on the  task, and don’t indulge in the wondering thoughts.

• At some point between 60 and 120 minutes, you will come down. At that  moment, the worst thing to do is to grab your phone. Instead, go for a walk, or  take a nap.  

ACTIONABLE STEP: Set up your flow state routine (every day at the same time).

• Increase your focus time and sessions over time.

• Use your vision (squint your eyes) to help you focus and get into a flow state. If you narrow your vision, you narrow your thoughts.

Step 4: Flow state in workouts. 

• Most workouts should be hard and super difficult. The workout should challenge  you physically and mentally.

• It is a shame to train without loving the workout.

• Don’t bring your phone to the gym, or at least don’t touch it. You don’t need  music for a good workout. Train in silence. When you are on a rest break, stare at  the equipment like a psychopath.

• You cannot listen to degenerate music without being or becoming a degenerate  yourself.

• Warm up literally. Make sure you are sweating during your workout and stay  sweaty.

Step 5: Flow state in relationships. 

• Not being in a flow state in your relationships is terrible and need to be fixed,  because otherwise there is no point in you even being there.

• Relationships get boring because of complacency. Ask yourself how to increase  the challenge and the difficulty of your relationships.

• Listening skills are also important.

ACTIONABLE STEP: Write down three open-ended deep questions that you can ask  anyone that you love and ask them today.

• When you have sex with a person that you love, try to focus on merging together.  The first big tip is to breath properly during sex, because the principal key of  mastering the world and women is to maintain a full and open front of the body (cf. The Way of The Superior Man), and you do this by breathing fully.  • When you learn to breath properly, you can have sex for as long as you want.

Step 6: The Way of the Superior Man. 

• To get into a flow state, you have to lean just beyond your edge. Step 7: How to keep making more progress. 

• To maintain your growth as a man, you have to be constantly leaning just beyond  your edge.

• No external results is going to change your experience of life. Your experience of  life is what you make of it mentally.

How To Resist Bad Habits

ACTIONABLE STEP: Think about the bad habit that often pulls you. A desire is forming  in your mind.

Step 1: Understanding willpower. 

• To achieve your long-term goals, the most important skill to master is willpower. Willpower is the skill of resisting desire.

• Willpower will save you months, years, or even decades of your life. Step 2: Lust. 

• Casual sex is far worse than porn. Pornography creates poor sexual habits, but  having sex with a random girl is neither a good thing. It is not showing that you  respect yourself, and your time.

• When you meet a really good woman, you will have 10 times more sex with her. • If you move the bad thing away from your visual sight, you are 10 times more  likely to resist the desire. If you think about something happy, you are also 10  times more likely to resist the desire.

• We should not be fantasizing and keeping in mid the bad desire. We should use if  […] then […], when we experience desire.

ACTIONABLE STEP: Find the triggering apps or content and remove it from your  phone.

Step 3: Video games. 

• Level up in the real world instead of in the virtual world.

• If we made you feel good and complimented you, you’d be much more likely to  delay gratification.

• Negative feedback reduces your willpower, but you can do positive feedback  yourself, by saying positive things and having positive thoughts.
