Neil calls his teaching environment ‘The Vortex’ where he loses track of time, days disappear in what seems minutes and he never gets thirsty or hungry. Neil explains the theory behind this altered state of perception. 
KEY TAKEAWAYS
People are happiest when they are in a state of ‘flow’ defined as a state of concentration and complete absorption with the situation or activity at hand. 
It is an optimal state of intrinsic motivation where it becomes its own reward.
BEST MOMENTS
‘With this total intensity you’d maybe expect there’d be some kind of stress but it’s the exact opposite.’
‘It’s a loss almost of the self into the activity. Musicians often describe this as being in the zone, in the pocket or in the groove.’ 
‘For the vast majority of almost everyone else out there, you’ll sound like a bloody nut job when you talk about what work feels like for you.’
