Join Ajit Nawalkha and Steven Kotler in this episode as they talk about how to complete “small acts of impossible” throughout your life in order to become familiar with the “big acts of impossible” when they actually happen. You will also learn the differences between “small i impossible” and “capital I Impossible” and how you can apply both concepts in topics like personal life, business, and when working with clients.
“The equation is really simple: motivation gets you in the game, learning keeps you there, creativity is how you steer, and flow is how you turbo boost the whole equation.” – Steven Kotler
Steven also explains the concept behind “flow.” Oftentimes when we feel blocked, uncreative, stuck, have no inspiration to accomplish tasks or meet deadlines, it’s because we need to work on our “flow.” In order to keep getting things done, we must unlock that state. By doing that, you release not only your full potential but also a higher level of performance.
“The core of all intrinsic motivations is curiosity. It’s the basic fuel for human motivation.” – Steven Kotler
