Work Sucks, But I Like It
How we define work needs to change today. Work Sucks, But I Like It is a show that challenges the narrow way we’ve come to define work. Most people answer the question, “What do you do?” with a job title—but that barely scratches the surface of human potential. This podcast digs deeper as success in our work is not about good luck, it's good "skills".

E26: Finding Your Flow: The Key to Productivity with Dr. Kevin Gazzara
"I need more project work and less routine"
In this conversation, Dr. Kevin Gazzara discusses the concept of flow as defined by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, emphasizing the importance of balancing challenge and skill to achieve optimal productivity and satisfaction in work. He explains how too much challenge with low skill leads to anxiety, while too much skill with low challenge results in boredom. The goal is to find a balance that allows individuals to operate in a state of flow, enhancing their overall work experience.
