# Flow ## State - A desirable [[mental state]]. - "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." - [[go]] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_(psychology) - As defined by [[Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi]] (I can never remember his name). ## Project - Also a [[project]] by [[david-gelernter]] and [[eric freeman]]: https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-future-of-the-internet-is-flow-1443796858
