How To Get In The Flow State & Stay There! A Powerful Mental Model For Success be well#Best Education Page #Online Earning

hey miles here miles Becca calm this

video is going to help you get into the

flow state and stay in the flow State

you're gonna learn a mental model in

this I'm gonna draw it out for you on

the computer here in a minute and it's

gonna help you understand where the flow

state is because it's not this elusive

abstract thing you really can

consciously through the choices you make

each and every day help yourself get

into and stay into the flow state

because the flow State as we've all

experienced at least once in our lives

it's kind of when time fades away

technically I think it's when your

skills and the challenge you're working

on are evenly matched but what we

experience this as as time just starts

to fade away

we're enjoying ourselves and we're

getting a ton done if you've ever had

one of those days where at the end of

the day you're like man I feel tired but

I feel good because I got so much done

I'm accomplished yeah and you look back

and you're just like totally charged

with how much you got done you were in

the flow State on that day and there's a

way to get yourself there and that's

exactly what you're gonna learn here so

this is not an original idea I want to

throw that out this idea is really

covered in depth in the book flow man I

gotta apologize to the author cuz his

name's really difficult to pronounce me

hi Csikszentmihalyi

I believe is how you pronounce his name

I will definitely have a link to him in

the description below here I don't think

you need to go through the book

personally I think this this getting

this framework is enough with that said

let's jump on the computer so the first

thing I'm gonna do is draw this out for

you so you can really get an idea of the

model as he presented it and then we're

gonna look at it through a few different

lenses so we can make sure it all makes

really good sense for you so we're gonna

do a quick graph so we got just a normal

graph here so this side is the challenge

and this side is your skills and the the

bottom point here is 0 for both of them

right so that's like not challenging and

you have no skill in it and this is this

is 10 right this is like the top of your

challenge right like this is the most

difficult aspect and down here in the

bottom right corner that's like the top

of your skill range so within this the

flow channel kind of goes up like this

if you will so this is the flow State

right here and again the big idea that I

think you need

understand from the start is that the

flow experience is when you're

challenged and skills are relatively

evenly matched what happens up here is

we get into anxiety so if the challenge

is significantly greater than your skill

set you are going to experience this as

anxiety I think a lot of times in in the

world of internet marketing we feel this

as overwhelm then on the skill side this

is boredom right so if your skills are

way greater than the challenge at hand

you're just gonna be flat-out bored most

people will have desk jobs and they're

doing the same thing over and over you

understand this very very deeply so the

first example I want to cover with this

is the idea of the game Tetris

I think everybody's probably played or

seen Tetris you put the little blocks

into the empty spaces as they're

dropping so if the game of Tetris is set

on an extremely low level right like the

basic basic level and you're playing it

and you have to play those basic levels

for hours you're gonna get incredibly

bored after about five minutes because

the challenge is somewhere down here

around a1 and your skills at that game

are probably somewhere around a six even

if you've never played so that puts it

way down here in the boredom section and

you're gonna be done after like three

four minutes you're like this is boring

I'm over it you've probably downloaded

games on your phone that looked cool and

you play them for a minute you're like

this is boring then there's the other

side so let's say I gave you a Tetris

game I give you a console that had

Tetris on it and we were able to put it

on the most difficult level ever created

in Tetris so the challenge is up here

and again your skills or maybe somewhere

around a six as you are right now that

might be overstating each and every one

of our Tetris skills haven't played the

game in 20 plus years you are going to

feel anxious you're gonna feel

overwhelmed and it just flat-out not

going to be fun

you might try that level a few times and

all the sudden you're gonna be like oh

this sucks I'm over it I'm gonna go do

something else because it's not in that

flow channel whereas if you're playing

in a level that's relatively evenly

matched with where you're at that is the

sweet spot that's when it's fun that's

when time fades away but we get better

at the things that we do repetitively

and that's where this is a channel and

not just a point on the map so what I'm

gonna do real quick I want to clean this

up and I want to explain this in another

way to help you really

truly understand this

the next example is skiing or

snowboarding if you've ever tried it

it's an extremely difficult sport

especially when you're get started and

what I'm gonna show you is in this one

we're gonna go to the progression of

one's skills within the flow state so

step number one you are just starting

your first time and you get off and you

are on the bunny slope right you're

going down the bunny slope and it's

really reserved for people who are brand

new and you fall a bunch that's gonna

put you somewhere in here you're

probably gonna have some fun you're new

to it your skills really are at a very

low level the challenge is not super

steep because it's a very it's a basic

skill eventually you get to where your

skills build up so you move this way

into the flow Channel now you're over

here you're still on the bunny hill but

your skills have improved so what do you

do you're like ah let's take that next

lift I'm ready to go up to the next

level now here's the question do you go

to a green circle which signifies a

simple one which that might bring you

over here right you go to the green

circle that might put you in a position

where your skills are greater than the

challenge do you go to a blue square

that might be up over here somewhere to

where your skills are here but the blue

square is putting that challenge outside

of your realm do you accidentally go

down a black diamond which would be

about the scariest thing in the world if

you're coming off the the bunny slopes

black diamond signifies advanced or a

double black diamond is the most

advanced stuff there is so this is how

we consciously choose where we are in

relation to the flow channel that's

that's the level I'm adding on and we're

gonna bring this back to you as a

digital marketer as an entrepreneur in a

second here but I'm trying to use

abstractions to make this mental model

make sense so you can remember this so

as you start day one you're having fun

having a good time you get to where

you're comfortable on the bunny slope

then what do you do what challenge do

you go for right and your goal if you're

able to stay to where you're moving

within this flow state right you

challenge yourself a little bit more and

then your skills improve and then you

challenge yourself a little bit more and

then your skills improve yet again and

you challenge yourself a little bit more

and so on that is how you gain

incremental improvements in a fun and

enjoyable way to really truly begin to

excel at that which you're doing so I'm

gonna erase some things and show you one

quick second that it's more like a wave

so when you get this right you're always

your skills are always shifting and not

only are your skills always shifting but

your challenge that you're presenting

yourself with is always evolving based

on whatever you're doing so the ultimate

goal is to put yourself in a position

where you are oscillating between higher

levels of challenge and skill building

right so we're we've challenged

ourselves here but we allow ourselves to

build up that skill which brings us down

to this new point where we challenge

ourselves yet again

and then we build up the skill which

brings us to this new point here and so

on and so forth this is when fun and

learning and really kind of growing your

business which is what we're gonna talk

about now that's when it all just starts

to jive so how does this work out for

digital marketers so I've started and

run probably 15 different

15 probably 30 different websites I've

owned well over a hundred probably back

300 domains in my day and there's a

there's a very consistent pattern on

what goes on with with digital marketers

and people who learn this it's one of a

few things right so the first thing is

you learned about the world and

instantly you realize that your skills

are just about zero and the challenge of

building a business online is you're

feeling it right you're like okay this

is crazy but you're like I'm gonna just

jump in I'm gonna start my first

WordPress blog I'm gonna put up a basic

basic theme I'm just gonna go with a

standard thrive theme and I'm just gonna

start publishing content and I'm gonna

learn how to publish content doing that

so what happens well you move your

skills up and you get to here and now

you're at this point where you're like

ah okay cool I get it I understand the

basics of WordPress and know how to move

things around and not to lay out a post

I put my images in the right place

you've skilled up a bit right you're

moving forward on the skill level so

what do you do at this point and this is

the most interesting point cuz a lot of

people you know what they do they're

like ah I now have a magic power

I can build websites I'm gonna build

five websites because I like this I like

that I like the other and instantly what

happens the challenge level goes way up

here and they go instantly into

overwhelm instantly and this is so

common in the world of digital marketing

in the world of entrepreneurship they

just jump in and they start trying to do

everything well I've got three different

niches I'm gonna do three sites but now

you have to update three different sites

you've got three different email lists

you've got three different opt-in 3

different reports three different

optimizations three different sets of

keyword

research all of your energy is focused

in three places and you're not really

you're seeing 30 percent of the results

on any one of them may be at the best

this is the problem and this is what I

mean when you're conscious choices that

you're making each and every day are

either helping you stay in that flow

State or hindering you from staying

inside of that flow State because your

life that you're experiencing right now

is 100% a result of your choices 100% so

what's the other thing that some people

do well they're like cool I got this

going here I got my blog going I'm gonna

add on keyword research and I'm gonna

add on search engine optimization which

are great skills to add on but then they

look around and they're like man that

garyvee guy he's all over Instagram and

he's all over this that and the other

and oh I need you youtubing and I need

to be vlogging and oh I need to make a

podcast happen and I need to I need to I

need to I need to and guess what you

don't like you can build an incredibly

successful business with a blog and a

single opt-in page and that's it it

takes one great traffic source focus on

great creating great content for one

audience and then having one email list

that's all you really need to do and yet

again this is one of those experiences

when people go straight into overwhelm

and what happens when you get

overwhelmed you stop doing the work you

stop doing these things that were

actually growing your business and that

is the biggest problem because that's

when people hit their proverbial wall

and they stop doing whatever it is that

they're doing so how when it works right

when we get this thing dialed in the

right way and I've seen I've seen people

hit the scene like this and honestly

I'll say personally that my growth of

this YouTube channel represents that's

what we're gonna use here on the last

example because I'm I'm really stoked

with what I've created here it's under

two and a half years by the two and a

half year mark I'll probably have about

85 or 90 thousand subscribers and over

four million views starting with zero

about two and a half years ago and I was

extremely conscious about what I decided

to take on in order to keep moving

forward because first and foremost I

knew I had to publish content day in and

day out and YouTube was my way I had

very minimal YouTube skills I'll say I

was like at a 1 on youtube skill so I'll

put it here the process of doing a 90

day challenge on YouTube was astounding

I did 90 videos in 90 consecutive days

the process of record

myself getting comfortable on camera

going through the motions uploading

optimizing while continuing to grow my

main business to be of support to run my

team I had all that other stuff going on

too right

that was a big time challenge right and

I'll even say I might have been a little

bit out of my comfort zone for the first

several weeks but pretty quickly my

skills moved up and I really got to a

point where I was comfortable now I did

120 videos in 120 consecutive days I did

not add on anything

I didn't market these things on social

media I didn't try to turn him into blog

posts all I literally did for four

months straight was a video a day every

day building what skills right so then I

started to implement keyword research to

do my optimization of the actual

listings that I'm doing my tags all of

that stuff so it added a little bit I'm

up to about here at this point this is

about four months into my path and I

just really stuck in with it then I went

to a three videos per week what that did

is it dropped my challenge back down

because I went from doing seven videos a

week to three videos a week and my

skills continued to improve my quality

of videos went up my processes right the

whole process of recording video it just

got easier

it took less time to set up my lighting

to get the audio dialed like it just got

easier and easier then after six months

this is key six months of doing nothing

but putting out my videos I released my

first opt-in report here we go

right back into the challenge side it

went big time challenge of now I got to

create some sort of a free giveaway then

I got a tie create a new list I got to

come up with an autoresponder sequence I

got to put a new landing page together I

could hear my lightbox working I got to

the API connected you probably know what

I'm talking about and it was challenging

and I kept my three videos a week going

while I got all of that done then I got

comfortable because that finished so now

I'm still making my videos I'm over here

now and then I needed to start emailing

my list up there's another challenge and

I gotta figure out how am I gonna email

these people what am I gonna say what am

I gonna do how am I gonna get this going

and then I that became easy

then I added all my blog posts getting

my blog posts done and then that became

easy got comfortable with that process

turned it in

my podcast Channel and so on and so

forth and still to this day I'm sending

emails each and every day this is

conscious this was all conscious on my

part I knew that if I was here right in

in my first 30 days 45 days if I tried

to start fiddling with often reports or

I gotta get this on my blog because

that's what everybody else is doing or

maybe you're looking at me now and I'm

up here right and I'm emailing my list

every single day I'm putting out my

videos three times a week and I'm

putting out as awesome of videos as I

can I've got my membership program

running I'm in there every single day

I'm doing micro launches I got a lot

going on my blog is growing each and

every day right I got all this going on

you might be right here and you might be

looking at what I'm doing like damn

miles I gotta do all that no you don't

and in fact if you try to do all of this

right now and you try to do everything

I'm doing right now and your skills

aren't there and you haven't taken time

to skill build it's gonna overwhelm you

you're gonna feel stressed you're gonna

feel anxious you're not gonna do a damn

thing and your momentum will flat stop

completely flat fall flat nothing you

will do nothing you will be overwhelmed

you're gonna be fried you're just gonna

sit on the couch drink wine beer watch

Netflix mood alter whatever it is you do

smoke weed I don't know what you do

maybe you don't do any of those things

you got something you do to distract

yourself scrolling time on Facebook

Instagram whatever it is that's where

people go when they get overwhelmed

which is the antithesis of growing ones

business so this is the whole idea here

and I want to do it one more time to try

to help you understand so we've got the

challenge and then we've got the skills

right and then inside of this is our

flow state this is where you want to be

and you are consciously making choices

each and every day are you gonna watch

another video are you gonna go buy some

webinar that it's gonna teach you some

shiny objects some fancy thing and now

you got to learn this new software

because everybody thinks this this

special funnel thing is is the answer so

you buy it now sudden boom your skills

or you got no skills in this you have to

deal with that right or are you just

gonna let yourself oscillate right here

inside of that flow state adding on

challenges after you've skilled up with

what you're doing then you give yourself

time to build a skill that new challenge

that you've added on then you add on yet

another challenge and it's incremental

and that my friend is

that's the real trick if you ask me this

is the part that when people get the

business right people grow businesses

quickly they're very conscious of taking

on one new competency at a time for me

it was bringing on the competency of

creating the videos then it was the

email list and it took six months of

just videos and it took six months of

just my email and videos until that got

comfortable within my skill set then I

added on the written content another six

months to a year to dial in that system

then I added on my up my my podcast feed

for it that took another several months

to get going then I started emailing

every single day and just incrementally

I've been growing and I've been staying

in a flow state and my days are

enjoyable and I'm getting more done

today than I've ever gotten done in the

past but my skills are at a level today

than higher than they've ever been in

the past and I'm also taking on more

challenges today than I've ever taken on

in the past and the key is that I was

patient enough with the process to give

myself time to build the skills so as I

added on new challenges my skills were

in alignment with the challenges that I

was taking on so if you feel overwhelmed

do a little self analysis what are you

working on what's actually important

because again one traffic source focused

on being of service to one audience with

one opt-in page is all you actually need

to grow a successful business I think

it's key for me to put a little asterisk

on that traffic source idea I don't

think Instagram alone is enough people

fiddle on Instagram that is not gonna

grow a long-term business that you can

fill up retirement accounts and pay off

houses with I'm talking blog content

video content or podcast content if you

want to do social media great added on

as a secondary supportive traffic source

to the core content strategy but don't

add that on until you've really gained

the competence with your core strategy

then build your opt-in rapport get that

going start emailing your list then when

you get comfortable with that process if

it takes you a year to get there great

now analyze what's that next most

logical competency you can add on to

help yourself get to that next level so

on and so forth you will repeat this

over and over and now

is how you become a digital marketing

and digital entrepreneur success story

in a way that is fun and relatively easy

right we challenge ourselves my 90-day

challenge was a total brutal experience

but it made me a stronger person and it

built those skills fast so I could add

on the next and the next because that

was my goal that was an alignment with

my goal so I was willing to trudge

through those challenges I hope this has

been helpful if you have questions about

how this works or anything get at me in

the comments below I'm happy to connect

with you in the comments when I have
