Csikszentmihalyi's Flow Model

Csikszentmihalyi's Flow Model describes a mental state called "flow," where a person is fully immersed in an activity, feeling focused, energized, and enjoying the process. This state occurs when the challenge of the task matches the individual's skill level—neither too easy nor too hard. When in flow, people often lose track of time and experience heightened creativity and productivity. The model highlights the importance of balancing challenge and skill to achieve this optimal engagement, promoting well-being and satisfaction in work or leisure.
