Flow

a [[state]]
- [[mental state]] [[desirable]]
- #wp https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_(psychology)
  - As defined by [[Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi]] (I can never remember how to spell his name).
  - "In positive psychology, a flow state, also known colloquially as being in the zone, is the mental state in which a person performing some activity is fully immersed in a feeling of energized focus, full involvement, and enjoyment in the process of the activity. In essence, flow is characterized by the complete absorption in what one does, and a resulting transformation in one's sense of time."

#pull [[flow state]]

I don't enter flow as often as I would like and that usually frustrates me; it's low key frustration but frustation nevertheless, and it builds up the longer it is sustained. It's like a part of my brain knows that we should get back to it, but life gets in the way; or, most often, I just procrastinate on triggering the right conditions.

Sometimes I like to get into flow with a [[quick fix]].

[[flow]]
- "[[struggle]] is the first phase of [[flow]]"
- on a meta level I find flow interesting because people I know that wouldn't usually talk about mindfulness or introspection are willing to engage with the concept
