Fueling your Work-Life Flow

Achieving work-life flow can be described as a state where you’re fully absorbed in your activities. In a zone of productive focus, your ego concerns and the passage of time drop away. You’re using your skills at their highest levels. Ultimately, the various aspects of your life flow together smoothly.

How can you reach such a state?

• Aim to do more things you can fully lose yourself in—from playing with the kids to walking in nature to steering your workday more toward the things where you excel.
• Use your schedule to creatively carve out time for yourself—whether it’s to do something fun, to exercise or to simply relax and decompress.
• Don’t be hard on yourself if life doesn’t fall into perfect order each day. Gently go along with the rhythm of what’s happening.
• Prioritize the elements of your life. Strive to spend more time on things you value, and begin let go of non-essential activities.
