In the field of [[psychology]], particularly [[sport psychology]], peak performance is a mental and physiological state that is also known as peak experience, the zone of optimal functioning and flow. It specifically refers to a moment when an individual puts it all together, when they are in the zone of "[[flow state]]", and when they achieve an exceptional performance.<ref>[https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/what-peak-performance-anyway-donna-marino-psyd-cipp-ppc/ What Is Peak Performance, Anyway?] by Dr. Donna Marino</ref> The term flow state describes a mental state in which a person is entirely focused on a single task/activity. Specifically, the person is directing all of their attention towards a task, and they do not experience many thoughts about themselves or their performance (Performance anxiety can hinder a person when it comes to peak/exceptional performance).
