Cultivating Flow at Work: Finding Peak Productivity and Enjoyment

What if you could tap into a state of optimal productivity, creativity, and joy whenever you wanted?I'm talking about flow - that magical feeling when you're so immersed in an activity that the rest of the world seems to melt away. For some of us, slipping into a flow state brings a rush of energy and laser-like focus. We can get more done in less time. New ideas and insights emerge effortlessly. And we feel lit up from the inside out.But here's the thing: flow doesn't just happen randomly. With the right strategies, you can actually cultivate flow purposefully.Joining me into today’s SPARKED episode, is our fabulous team here at Spark Endeavors is Shelly Adele Bliss. Together, we'll unpack the science behind flow. What specific states trigger this remarkable state? How, exactly, does it benefit you, both in your work, and also in your life? Most importantly, we explore how you can create the conditions for flow in your own life. ABOUT YOUR HOST: Jonathan FieldsJonathan is a dad, husband, award-winning author, multi-time founder, executive producer and host of the Good Life Project podcast, and co-host of SPARKED, too!

Om Podcasten

We’re all in a moment. And, we’re asking the big questions. Especially about work. Should I join The Great Resignation? Should I stay and just keep on, keeping on. Or, reimagine, reinvent, maybe even start my own thing? Can I really expect more than just a paycheck and stability from work? How do I navigate the overwhelm, burnout, and work-life-bleed that’s turned work-from-home into never-stop-working? What about purpose, joy, excitement, time to breathe, and live? What about that nagging tension between money and meaning, the desire to feel secure and the quest to do something that makes you come alive - that sparks you?These are the questions we’ll be diving into on the SPARKED podcast. Every week, we invite a listener to share what’s going on in their work & life, then pose a specific question. Then, our host, award-winning author, advisor, and founder, Jonathan Fields, and a rotating lineup of wise mentors from the SPARKED Braintrust will share insights, ideas, strategies, resources and tips to help us all better align what we do with who we are, so we can find and do more of what makes us come alive.
