Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi (flow theory)

Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi's flow theory describes a state of complete immersion and focus in an activity where a person feels fully engaged and enjoys the experience. This occurs when the challenges of the task match one's skills, creating a sense of balance. During flow, individuals often lose track of time and feel a deep sense of fulfillment. Common in creative work and sports, achieving flow can enhance performance and well-being. Understanding flow can help people find activities that bring joy and increase productivity by aligning challenges with their abilities.
