Flow, Friction, and Peak Performance
Men’s energy flow and the friction. If you want to reach your peak performance, then you need to tune yourself to the energy of flow. Your brain goes into the energy of flow only through creating neural pathways towards that flow. You cannot reach the highest rate of flow in one day or in one event. For that, you need to create neural pathways.
It is like if you want to drive your car on a highway. You need to create the highway. Without creating the highway, you cannot drive your car in a smooth way. Similarly, your neural pathways are the pathways that are created by repetitions—by continuous repetitions of one activity that you want to master.
And that is created over a period of time. Some pathways are created immediately, but some pathways need constant repetition depending on the intensity of work you want to do. For example, if you are a swimmer, then in one day you will not become an expert swimmer. You have to practice again and again. In sports, you understand this very well.
But you need to understand that in life, how can you create the neural pathway of flow with the help of your brain, your nervous system, and then only your energy will flow in the energy channels, and the energy will be processed by your nervous system in the best way to reach the flow state. Your brain needs to go into the alpha state.
Brainwave Map: Beta as Friction, Alpha as Flow
In the alpha state, the existence of time and space is lost. Hours pass by and you do not realize how much time has been spent in the activity, because the thinking brain—the prefrontal cortex of the brain—is switched off in the alpha state, in the flow state. When you are in the beta state, then your brain is involved in logical thinking and rationalizing.
It is the friction. The beta state is the friction. All the time you will be thinking logically about what to do, when to do, how to do. And these frictions do not allow you to go into the flow state. The flow state is achieved when you bypass the beta state and radiate at a frequency which is equivalent to the alpha state.
The brain captures these waves and automatically you are radiating at a frequency in which there is no friction, because the beta… Suppose the beta waves are radiating at this frequency, and the alpha waves are radiating at this frequency, and you are crossing this highway—you are crossing this flyover—but this is the road on the ground; the cars, the vehicles are passing by at the beta waves.
Your thinking, your logical mind, remains in the beta state. Like the cars on the ground level, they are not able to see you. You are on the flyover and you are flowing. There is congestion in this region—the traffic is indeed in the ground region where the beta state is—but above the flyover there is no traffic. Or you can understand it as this: you are flying above the ground. You are flying in an airplane. Beta state is like traveling in the car in the city, and alpha state is like flying in the flight above in different layers of the atmosphere,
Where there is no friction. You are flowing. You do not know which city you have passed, what time has gone. If you do not see the watch, you will not know what time it is, because morning and night are not applicable in the sky.
Higher Bands: Theta for Intuition, Gamma for Vision
And your brain goes into that flow state where you are highly productive; you become highly intuitive. You get access to the theta waves, which are giving you access to intuitive energies.
And also you can access the gamma waves, which give you insights, which give you visions, which give you imagination to create something unique, different. And all these—alpha, theta, and gamma—are energies of creation. You tap into the frequency of creation of the universe, and from there some new idea comes into your consciousness. Your field of awareness is filled with new and innovative ideas, and then you start accessing those ideas and you get the articulation of that idea in the form of a blueprint for some creation that could be related to your life purpose, that could be related to the major decisions in your life, or it could be related to your professional qualifications,
Qualities, talent. If you are a musician, you could tap into a different kind of frequency, which is extremely new and high quality. It is so unique—the tune is so unique, the rhythm of that music is so unique—that you have never heard it before. A different kind of rhythm is getting created from you, from that state of heightened awareness.
You reach the highest state of consciousness at the alpha frequency of the brain waves. These are the waves that cannot be created at your will. You need to reach that state.
The Path In: Passion, Repetition, and the 30–60–100 Day Arc
How to reach this state of alpha frequency, or the waves which make you access this heightened state of awareness? You have to create neural pathways by following your passion. You have to follow your passion—what you love to do—and you have to experiment with different kinds of activities that you love to do. Once you know which activity is passionate for you, you have to do it repeatedly—initially for 30 days, then for 60 days, then for 100 days.
But within 100 days you will get to know what drives you—what gives you the kick. If you want to be a trekking guide, then that kind of energy will come in you to go on a solo trek. Once you go, you will get access to the intelligence behind doing the solo trek. Initially, you will take guidance of some experts.
Some other guides will help you with that process. But gradually you will discover that you love trekking in the jungle, in the wild, in the mountains. And you would like to give such kind of experience to other people. And there comes the birth of the guide who experientially makes other people experience,
Because he is passionate about his profession. Since you are passionate about your trekking experience, you can teach others. If you are good in teaching,
Then you can teach anything that the world needs. You can explore the ikigai of your soul—why you are born, what you are good at. If you love cooking, you would love to serve good food, and that will become your profession. But that is not possible if you are not passionate about it. You have to reach your peak performance by going into the flow state.
There are hundreds of activities that you can explore in your daily life to know what is your ego, what is your passion, what keeps you in flow state, what keeps you driven towards. You could be a writer and you love writing. You love creating something which was never told. You could become a scriptwriter or you could be a filmmaker.
You can create your own creation—what story you want to tell. You could be a photographer. You could be a musician, an artist, a painter, a dancer, a scientist, an inventor, a businessman, an entrepreneur who brings to this world something new, something unique, which is totally different, which is totally unique, which is totally of a different league. And that is born out of your flow state. You know that this flow state is important for you, and that is why you become highly disciplined in life to maintain that flow state.
As a glimpse, you got the idea of the flow state. But now it is your responsibility to be in the flow state. Once you drive your car to the highway, to remain on the highway—to drive on the highway—you need to be in that state of freedom. So do everything in your life to go to that state of peak performance, of the flow state, where things happen.
Creation vs. Consumption: The Two Dimensions
It is a different dimension from the worldly dimension. The worldly dimension is of consumption. And above this worldly dimension is the dimension of creation. The creation happens from the universe, and the consumption happens from the earth. Below the earth, the demonic energies, the lower energies, the negative energies—they are the consumers. The lower energies always want,
And the higher energies always give, always produce, always create. Your dopamine will be released when you are creating from that state of heightened flow state. You will never be satisfied with consuming.
You will never feel like getting absorbed in the name of consumption. Your soul, your dopamine, your brain will not make you feel happy until and unless you create. Gradually, your addictions will go away; gradually your consumption will go away. You will feel there is much more to do in life than to consume. And when you create something the first time and you don’t look back—you go to the next creation, then the next, then the next, and then the next.
If you go into the analogy of creating food: you cook one meal, you eat it, you feel good about it, you take pleasure in it, and then you cook the next meal, then you cook the next, then the next. And that is how you become a master chef. That is how you become an expert. And that happens due to you taking pleasure—due to your passion.
If you are passionate about something, you will definitely take pleasure in enjoying that while you are doing it, and the result is not in the future. The result is here and now. The result is in this moment, and there is no friction. There is no obstacle. There is no resistance in this moment. The resistance, the friction, happens because the road is not created.
You want to do off-roading—how many times will you be able to do the off-roading and enjoy it? One day you have to go through the highway. If you want to reach a certain destination, flow state takes you to the destination.
Excellence Without Perfectionism
You cannot remain amateurish all the time. You need excellence. Your brain needs that excellence to reach the state of peak performance. You do not need to become a perfectionist. Do not try to perfect things. Try to create and move—learn and then do the next step, then do the next step. If you want to work on a certain skill for 100 days—for example, you are learning video editing—
Initially, you learn the basics, just the fundamentals. Shoot some video and use a good software and edit the video. Trim what is important, give some LUT, and then work on the audio. Work on the appearance. But do not go into the technicalities of creating that video initially. If you go into the technicalities of creating that video initially, your brain will not support because the neural pathway is not yet created.
The next day, shoot another video, watch some good videos to learn the process and apply it. Learn from your mistakes in the shooting process, in the light, in the way you film a video, and then also with the editing process. Whatever you did yesterday, critically see it from all angles. If you have someone with you who can give you positive feedback about your work, that would be great enough.
But if no one is there, then you yourself do that critical thinking as if it is a product created by someone else, and then you go to the next step. The next day you learn about it. Whatever mistakes you have done—or whatever learnings you have from the first video editing—you apply to the next video editing for 100 days.
Keep on doing this. Each time you excel, each time you perform better than before. And this is how your neural pathway of editing high-quality video will be created over a period of 100 days. Because with each learning, you are implementing it in the next step and then again in the next step. You are implementing this. And this is how your neural pathway of being a student, of being a learner, will be created.
The Alphabet Lesson: How Paths Remove Struggle
And in the process, you will go into the flow state. It is like learning your alphabet. Initially, you learn writing only one line of the letter E—you learn only writing this side. Or initially you start writing or drawing only lines, and then you join two lines. Then you learn how to create the line in between. That is how the letter is created when you
Once you learn how to write letter E, then you learn how to make curves, and then you learn how to make the letter B.
And now you are in a flow state to write letter E. Next you are in a flow state to write letter B, A, and B. You are in a flow state. You do not need to struggle because the pathway has been created. Next, you learn how to make curves in this direction. Then you make D in the opposite direction.
In the first five letters, you learn all the ways to create all the other letters in the alphabet—A, B, C, D, E. These five letters are enough for the brain to know how to write, and then F is just a combination in a different direction. If you learn how to make E, you can learn F. If you learn how to write C, you know how to write G.
And this is how you know how to create all the alphabet. There is no struggle. There is no
Struggle for the nervous system to learn in the same way in which you have learned the first five alphabet. At the same time, you have learned the consonants for grammar, and now you learn the vowels—E, I, O, U. You know how to produce different sounds—e, i, o, u. And now you can talk; you can create words by joining these letters.
All these are fundamentally neural pathways created by the brain. And this you have forgotten. I am reminding you so that whatever age you may be, at whatever stage of life you are, whatever struggles you have in life right now, you can still work on your brain in a new direction. You can still work on a new skill. Learn that skill. Master that skill.
Make it your own. Go into the flow state. Create something unique. And for all these you do not need anyone else. These all are done by you—your brain, your nervous system, your energy field, your human body, your system. Your system works for you. You can learn anything at any age, at any stage, by training your nervous system to rewire in a new direction.
Neuroplasticity: Use It or Lose It
This is called neuroplasticity. But for that you have to leave your old patterns. How to leave your old patterns? Don’t use them. When you do not use it, you lose it. If you do not use your organs—like the way vestigial organs have been created—we had a tail once. We are coming from the apes; we stopped using the tail.
The tail vanished after some evolutionary journey. We are no more born with a tail. We have an appendix in our body—that is a vestigial organ. We have earlobes. We don’t use them. We use them for decorating. We use because we have. But even if this earlobe is not there, it is a vestigial organ.
And there are many other parts in our body that we have not used. Similarly are the patterns in the nervous system, in the mind, in the subconscious mind. You stop using them, they will reduce in intensity, and one day they will vanish from your memory, from your nervous system. But if you have some trauma that needs to be healed, that is a different case altogether.
That needs a different kind of healing process. So all the resistance that you face—the friction that you face—in developing new neural pathways could come from your subconscious mind, could come from your old pathways in which you have learned to be limited. You have forgotten how to create new neural pathways, and you have forgotten how to learn—being a student.
After your schools or colleges, or after having degrees, you have never studied anything. So what? Go back to your roots. Go back to the time when you used to read books. Start reading books and it will rejuvenate you. It will open new portals of new energy, and it will heal your brain. Suddenly you will go into a different portal where you will feel that your brain is working in a better condition.
Your attention span has improved due to one habit of reading. Apart from that, there is much great work that I teach my students to improve brain power.
And that you have to do continuously for 100 days. The flow state is difficult to achieve, but once you achieve that flow state, you will never want to live a mediocre life. You would like to flow, because the higher level of consciousness makes you access the higher frequencies of creation—the higher frequency of flow state—that frequency.
Transmission and Training: Tuning to Flow
I have the power to make you reach that flow frequency, but you have to tune into my energies. You have to follow what I guide you. Then only you can access that frequency. You have to work on your limitations. You have to work on clearing your mental clutters. You have to work on your addiction removal.
You have to work on removing the toxic people and toxic energies from your energy field. You have to work on your ego. You have to leave your ego—whoever you are—leave your ego behind. Unlearn everything.
You are not old or young. Your brain is old or young based on what kind of energy your brain is getting access to. If it is getting access to the old, stale energy of patterns and programming—decades of doing the same work again and again—your brain is becoming older and the nerve cells are dying.
But if you are deliberating with your brain, with new creation, with new skill learning, then you are creating new cells. You are rejuvenating your cells. Your nerve cells are always in search of new things that keep them rejuvenating. You just need to know what will release the real dopamine in you—the true dopamine in you. When you reach your flow state, your brain releases the true dopamine that keeps your brain healthy.
The positive cycle begins where you are taking pleasure. You are passionate about something. Your brain is in flow state. You are creating something. The sense of creation gives you the sense of achievement. Dopamine is released; happy hormone is released. You are again taking pleasure, again passionate about it. And this cycle goes on continuously. You cannot come back to your lower state after reaching the flow state.
100 Days of Sacred Focus: Conditions for Continuous Flow
If you are disciplined in life, you should create conditions in which you can flow continuously for 100 days. If it is not possible from your place, from your home, then take a break from life. Take a sabbatical from life for 100 days. Go to a state—go to a place—where you can experience the state where nobody disturbs you.
You sleep when you are sleepy. When you feel the sense of completion, you eat when you are hungry. But the rest of the time, you flow into your passion. Maybe the inventor in you is calling you to tap that state, but you have not given yourself the space to go there. You have never tapped that frequency, and that is why things are not changing in your life.
In your flow state, the brain heals the fastest. If you have suffered from chronic health condition or brain condition, you need to know: you have to go to the flow state and create a situation in which your brain remains in the flow state. From the flow state, all your pain—chronic pain, fatigue in the body—will go away.
All the extra charge in the nerve centers will be flowed into your invention, into your creation, and a different kind of energy you will experience. You will become lighter. You do not have to do anything in life. If you are flowing, life will be happening to you. You will go into the state of happening. You will go into the state where there is no time, no space, no limitations, no friction.
There will be nothing to stop you. You will always remain in that heightened state. And the brain needs this kind of frequency to be healed permanently. And from that heightened state, you will also realize what your life purpose is. You will discover your life purpose. You will come to know intuitively that you need to flow in this invention, in this creation, as your life purpose.
The materialistic things, the worldly things, will vanish. The logical mind will stop working in you. You will always be ahead of time. You will always radiate from a different frequency. And for this uniqueness of you—for this extraordinary talent in you—people will search for you, will find you one day, to teach them this flow state.
And you can teach them definitely, because now it has become your experience. It has become your wisdom. You know how to reach the flow state. And if you know how to reach the flow state, you can definitely teach others how to reach. So all the worldly calculation of doing a job or something will go away. The insecurity, the fear, the lack energy will go away from your system.
You will get access to the abundance energy of the universe, where everything is possible. You will be introduced to the state of possibility, where everything that you decide is possible. And this you will experience after completely dedicating to reach the flow state by working relentlessly on your pleasures, which is your passion. Start living instinctive life. Instinctive life means doing all the basic things that you need to do, and not more than that.
Nothing to show off, nothing to prove to anyone, nothing to impress anyone in the society, in the matrix. Because you are out of it. You are enough. In an unknown land where nobody knows you—for 100 days—dedicate the time, energy, and all your investment into discovering what is your flow state. Once you reach that flow state, there is no looking back.
Flow state is the rhythm of life. Flow state is the frequency of life. The frequency of life energy is flow. And once you reach that flow state, you are living your life.
Practical Practice: How to Build Flow Daily (Follow These Exactly)
- Choose one passion-activity today. Write it down.
- Commit to 30 days, then 60, then 100 days without breaking the chain.
- Each day, do the activity first, before logic and errands.
- Keep sessions long enough for immersion (at least 90–120 minutes).
- After each session, note one learning and apply it the next day.
- Remove distractions: phone off, no notifications, a clean physical space.
- Read daily to train attention and open new portals of energy.
- Reduce consumption habits that spike shallow dopamine; replace them with creation.
- Weekly, review progress as if you were your own coach—clear, honest, encouraging.
- If home cannot support this, create a 100-day sabbatical environment: sleep on your natural rhythm, eat only when hungry, and return to practice.
Enter, Remain, Transmit
This is what is a deep discourse, which needs to be implemented by you to experience it. I am in flow state. If you want to be in flow state then implement it. Alright, have a great day. Bye bye. Thank you.
