It could be a criticism, it could be a challenge, it could be a particular problem, or it could be a creative performance!</li></ul><ul><li>Discover how to tap into and maintain a peak performance state, what we are calling a "creative flow state". Athletes might call it "the zone", or martial artists might use the term "chi flow", but whatever you call it, it is a state in which to be able to deal skillfully and creatively, with whatever it is that you are engaged with.</li></ul>
