One way to get to a flow is to schedule time to do the work, check all the other items off your to-do list so you can focus, maybe even warm up a little with some practice of whatever it is you need to do.
The problem with this is that it’s a relatively slow path to flow.
You can achieve flow much more quickly by simply diving in and doing the work. If anything, find a way to turn the dial up higher and get the muscles (mental or otherwise) working.
It’s harder, but only at first.
Stay Positive & Make Your Flow
