Flow

Read sample

In this book, Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi summarizes his decades of research on the positive aspects of human experience – joy, creativity, the process of total involvement in life, which he calls flow. It’s an incredible book that powerfully articulates the science behind how to control our consciousness to more consistently get ourselves into the optimal state of experience known as flow, and, as a result, enjoy our lives more.
