Trailing Flow State
The ‘flow state’ is considered to be a peak performance state as it allows an individual to achieve a level of performance that would not be possible in a state of distraction or disinterest. It can be experienced in a wide range of activities, including sports, art, music, work and of course tracking. Any activity where a modicum of skill is needed, where feedback is immediate and where a high degree of focus and attention is required, especially if there is a hint of possible danger involved, can lead to a flow state. When your objective is to follow the signs until you find your quarry, which is often a potentially dangerous animal, your senses have extra reason to be piqued.
