Think about this concept for a moment.

Have you every had a job that allowed you to play? I am not talking in the off task type of way, but rather in a way that allows you to feel stimulated, engaged and alive?

Today's quote by Linda Naiman invites us to examine this idea and she states: 

“When we engage in what we are naturally suited to do, our work takes on the quality of play and it is play that stimulates creativity.” – Linda Naiman

Each of us has a unique set of skills and talents that allow us to accomplish tasks in a way that appear creative, effortless or natural to others.  When we are in this zone there is a natural flow to how we approach what we do.

Mihály Csíkszentmihályi's work on flow allows us to examine Naiman's quote in a focused way and look for ways to develop it into a workflow.
