People who have achieved what others may think as being the ‘ultimate’ experience

Yet often he detected there was an underlying dissatisfaction

Champion Thinking is a counter to the ‘success evangelism’ that is so prevalent.

Typically, we think we’ll be happy when X happens (the job, house, relationship, World Cup win, Olympic gold medal). However, frequently people reach the top of their success Everest and feel underwhelmed or even empty.

But the experience of flow is inherently enjoyable. Why is that? Because as thoughts about past and future drop away, so does our identity and sense of self. And we love it when that happens! The trophy is just a symbol of that moment. That’s why we love losing ourselves – in sport, music, conversation, books, dance – the portals are vast.

While we think we want to become a ‘somebody’, we are happiest when we experience being ‘nobody’. On that level, we are always at peace, whole and fulfilled. The trick then is to embody this recognition, even when we are not 'in flow', and this book can show you how.

This is a great conversation exploring some of the deeper topics around our experience.

• What is ‘non duality’?
• How can we incorporate this in our everyday life?
• What is the difference between our ‘thinking mind’ and our ‘observing mind’?
• How to create some separation from our thoughts so we don’t get so caught up in the content of our thinking
• What are the best way to set goals?
• What does make us truly happy?
• A really thought provoking session from someone who has been able to see through the illusion of ‘I will be happy when”
