How to experience flow ?

  1. Flow occurs when we confront tasks we have a chance of completing.
  2. Ability to concentrate on what we are doing.
  3. The concentration is possible because the task undertaken has clear goals and provides immediate feedback.
  4. One acts with a deep but effortless involvement that removes from awareness the worries and frustrations of everyday life.
  5. Enjoyable experiences allow people to exercise a sense of control over their actions.
  6. Concern for the self disappears, yet paradoxically the sense of self emerges stronger after the flow experience is over.
  7. The sense of the duration of time is altered.
