    What are the longest hours (w/o breaks) you have put in for any activity, say, to build something?

    Hi Makers, I wish to understand more around the topic "State of flow" for makers and in general. Though the flow state depends largely on the nature of work, the question remains "What does it take to get into that state?"

    Over 20 hours in University but not in a state of flow. It was a forced grind with horrible results both for me and the code I wrote. In true flow state I think about 2-4 hours is more common for me. Since your brain is working intensely it can't sustain much more time without a decent break.
