3 quotes from Flow

  • "The best moments in our lives are not the passive, receptive, relaxing times... The best moments usually occur when a person's body or mind is stretched to its limits in a voluntary effort to accomplish something difficult and worthwhile."
  • "Flow is a state of concentration or complete absorption with the activity at hand and the situation. It is a state in which people are so involved in an activity that nothing else seems to matter."
  • "Control over one's experience is what makes life worth living, and this control can be achieved by learning to manage the flow of attention and the use of time, despite the challenges and distractions in the world around us."
