Finding Flow: The Psychology of Engagement with Everyday Life (Masterminds Series)

From the bestselling author of Flow and one of the pioneers of the scientific study of happiness, an indispensable guide to living your best life “A brilliant synthesis...shows how all of us can enhance our work, our play, our lives.” ―Howard Gardner, author of Frames of Mind What makes a good life? Is it money? An important job? Leisure time? Work fills our days with anxiety and pressure, so that during our free time, we tend to live in boredom, absorbed by our screens. What are we missing? To answer this question, pioneering psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi studied thousands of people. He found that people are happiest when they challenge themselves with tasks that demand a high degree of skill and commitment, and which are undertaken for their own sake. Instead of scrolling on your phone, play the piano. Take a routine chore and figure out how to do it better, faster, more efficiently. In short, learn the hidden power of complete engagement, a psychological state the author calls flow. Though they appear simple, the lessons in Finding Flow are life changing.
