Quotes:
"The vast majority of our stress is perceived stress. If you're, you know, on a bench press or something trying to put up your max weight, that's going to be real stress in the moment. But the vast majority of our stress is fear of the future, rumination on the past."
"In order to be able to get into flow state, you have to be able to recognize what pulls you out of flow state."
