Regarding how to achieve the state of "flow", I want to share 3 tips here. The first is to set a slightly difficult goal and achieve it in stages . Here we are talking about a slightly difficult goal. , It can’t be something that is very difficult to achieve or almost impossible, but a goal that has a probability of 70~80%, so that you will not lose confidence or give up on yourself, and you will not lose your sense of achievement because it is too easy to reach the goal. , and when each small goal is achieved, there will be a small sense of achievement, and it is easier to enter a state of flow.

The second trick is to have a certain degree of autonomy . If you completely follow the boss's requirements at work and perform each action mechanically step by step, it is impossible to achieve a state of flow. There is a certain degree of room to play, and you can decide what you want to do or how to execute it, you will have greater motivation, and you will get the emotions of enjoyment and satisfaction. Only by investing in it will you be more likely to achieve flow.

The third tip is to stay away from distracting or distracting things . The most common ones are 3C products such as mobile phones, computers, etc. You can also use earplugs or stay in libraries and cafes as appropriate, and choose a suitable environment, and stay away from distractions. Of course, the most important thing is to want to enter the state of flow from the bottom of your heart, and you can finally achieve the state of ecstasy when you have fun in it.

Finally, although the concept of "flow" was developed by Mihari. It was put forward by Cheekson, but some critics believe that Mihali just appropriated Eastern Zen, Indian meditation, and combined it with Taoist health philosophy to interpret a set of philosophical views that Westerners can easily understand and accept. But at least Mihari. In the book "Flow: The Optimal Experience Psychology that Experts Are Studying", Chexon clearly reveals a mental state that improves productivity.
