Have you ever experienced Flow?
A state in which people are so involved in an activity that nothing else seems to matter; the experience is so enjoyable that people will continue to do it at great cost, for the sheer sake of doing it.
-Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi (1990)
What is Flow?
Complete concentration on the task
Clarity if goals and reward in mind and immediate feedback
Transformation of time (speeding up/slowing down)
The experience in intrinsically rewarding
Effortless and ease
There is a balance between challenge and skill
Actions and awareness are merged, losing self-conscious rumination
There is a feeling of control over the task
