Creating Flow

"Cultivating Flow in Everyday Life

  • wake up in the morning with a specific goal to look forward to
  • if you do anything well it becomes enjoyable
  • to keep enjoying something you need to increase its complexity
  • practise making everyday tasks enjoyable - eventually you will learn the meta skill and be able to turn any activity into an occasion of flow
  • take charge of your schedule
  • make time for reflection and relaxation
  • try to be surprised by something everyday
  • find out what you like and what you hate about life
  • start doing more of what you love and less of what you hate."
