<H2>It's a new concept </H2>
The new science of Flow is revolutionizing our effectiveness, focus and happiness at work.  Productivity Day is a mix of workshop and workday: instead of working at our office, we bring in our professional or personal work for an ultra-effective day! How much can learning peak-effectiveness improve your life? Could more focus &amp; concentration make your work easier &amp; save you time? 
Invest one day of your life, to make a transformation that will boost the rest of your life. 
You will walk away with new mental models, habits &amp; skills that will take your effectiveness to the next level. Even if you already are productive, this experience will take your mind to a new realm.
You will not lose a day of work, but instead make more progress than on a workday at the office .

<H2> Training the mind for Flow</H2>
<A HREF="https://www.ted.com/talks/mihaly_csikszentmihalyi_on_flow" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Flow</A> is a mental state of high-performance and happiness, that most of us only rarely or even never experience at work (typically less than 5% of the work-week).
Some call Flow a superpower. When our mind enters the precious state of Flow, we become 200% more creative and 500% more productive. The process of working feels (almost) effortless. We learn 490% faster. (McKinsey study on executives) Developing the capacity to enter Flow during our work saves hours of work, increases our creativity, and definitely boosts our happiness &amp; fulfillment.

In Flow, the act of working feels effortless and stress-less. We feel energized at the end of the day, instead of tired.
0% stress, 100% deep-focus.

<H2>How effective are you really?</H2>
We are often unaware that we are only 25-30% effective with our work. We live in a world of too much information &amp; distractions. Research shows that out of an 8-hour workday, we lose on average 5.5 hours in distractions and non-important tasks. What’s more? Our brain naturally tends to procrastinate, causing stress.
