   The performance ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

   Good delivery by the reader. Kotler, the author obviously has a passion about the mechanics of flow and the application to extreme sport performance. He goes further to explain how flow is used in all areas of life which makes this read relatable to everyone. Very enjoyable.

   A potential quantum leap in productivity

   This book looks at early current scientific findings and potential benefits AND risks associated with achieving and utilizing flow states. This research has, in my opinion, the power to impact thousands of lives in the future. Keep researching! 5/28/2023GJBrownDO 19:48 Eastern

   Enough with the stories!

   I liked the first story about how extreme athletes use flow to survive their incredible acts of bravery but was worn out by all the rest. Far too many stories that told us what the first story told us. The rest of the book was great. The science was solid and easy to understand and the topic of flow hacking is riveting. Very exciting to hear how much can be done with flow. This is a great book if you are interested in the neuroscience behind flow buy not if you are looking for actual steps on how to hack flow. Overall, I am glad I read it.

   Promotes extreme sports

   it was a story about extreme sports. talked about needing to be in the Flow. but made me think I need to be a extreme addrenilie junkie to get there. if you want to skate board, ski in a tube, or jump out of airplanes. you might enjoy this book.

   Love the content but that narrator....

   Big fan of the insights that Steven Kotler and his cohorts put out. Their research on the flow state opens up a diverse dialogue on how our mindspace expands with AI technology. What's surprising about the book is how much of this research fails to be a part of the mainstream. The capabilities we're reaching now is accelerating faster than ever in the course of history. Its thought-provoking to think that some of the super abilities we see in movies is close to being a reality. This would solve major conditions like Alzheimer's, paralyzation, communication disorders, mortality, neurological enhancement, etc. The book delves into our past and the implications of playing God in the future. Please keep in mind, I'm not insulting the narrator's ability to do his job, but the method of delivery was distracting. There are times when I feel like I'm listening to George Carlin narrating Thomas the Tank Engine when he impersonates the voices. The narrator's style doesn't match with the content he's reading. Overall - The book is a great read, highly recommended if your'e interested in how the mind and body have evolved, and are interested in technology and how it will make us super heroes, definitely worth it. Good luck getting past the narrator though...

   Exceptional book about the neuroscience of flow!

   This book is brilliant and it always fires me up when I listen to it. This is one of my favourite things to listen to on my 5 + hour training runs or rides or walks. I love to learn about how the neurotransmitters affect perception and how I can use them to improve in what I already love to do.
