I Tried to Find My “Flow State” for Two Weeks – and It Helped Productivity, Focus and Calm Tenfold

Flow state: Anna's journal during her trial.

You don't need us to tell you that life is busier than ever, right now; at this point, we've stopped asking our friends how they are - we all know that we're overwhelmed, overstretched and overworked (all the overs!)

But with Christmas just around the corner, it's also true that we can't take our feet off the gas for the next few weeks, either. Annoyingly, the more I have on my plate, the less productive I can feel (tell me I'm not alone?) as it's tempting to flit from one task to the next without ever really finishing anything.
