Show Quotes:

"Think about a good movie, a great conversation, playing with your kids. The moment where you're just shining in a meeting or with a colleague. Those are flow moments."

"Executives in flow are 500% more productive than not in flow. So, if you can imagine the implications over time, if you can systematize that, make it consistent. Yeah, pretty big implications."
