Why decision-making is easier in flow state

According to John Hopkins neuroscientist Charles Lamb, when in peak performance or flow state...when you are "in the zone" -

• The self-monitoring part of our brain is deactivated (as shown by fMRI).
• It means, no more second-guessing or interference from our voice of doubt.
• And so, risk-taking becomes less frightening and we act without hesitation.
• All this lets us flow at a faster pace.
