Erik: When do you find yourself entering a flow state of productivity?
Bijoy: I think it’s a matter of taking enough time to do a task long enough that you get
into it. So, what I found is a flow state occurs, you know, in any given moment, you
need about an hour or two of ongoing work in that task and then you find yourself in
a flow state. So, there’s something about – There’s a settling in process and settling
down process and then once you’re in that zone, you’re in that flow state but you
can’t – I very rarely find myself starting in the flow state and so, you know, I’ll
ramp up a task and start doing something and then as I’m doing it more then I’ll find
myself in the flow state. So, I mean, like, you know, South By is a great example like,
you know, again you’ll start and you're like, oh, yeah South By and you have these
festivals and there’s panels and, you know, and then you just start going, you start getting
into it and by the first day or second day you're down the road and you’re just gonna
stop by, you know that you’re in the process of it. So, I think it’s a really interesting
thing, it did take some setup and then once you’ve setup then you can start to groove
in.
