Sense of peace and sense of “flow”

Sense of peace and sense of “flow”

At that precise moment of “flow” or “being in the zone”, isn’t that also the precise moment we personally experience a sense of peace? Csikszentmihalyi wrote that flow can come to be when there is a balance of boredom and anxiety; where one’s skills can reasonably adapt to the challenge or dilemma to be overcome.

And maybe the key to experiencing that sense of peace and flow is to hone our skills, especially in paying attention to ourselves and the experiences of others.

That sense of peace and flow is not a metaphorical switch to be flipped, unlike what fictional sports stories seem to suggest. One must understand one’s personal context very well before one can enter flow.

Team flow is more important; there should be synergy born from thorough understanding and insight of each other – a very strong sense of active empathy.

Kung ihahalintulad natin sa tunay na bayanihan, kailangan mag-usap at magkaintindihan tayo kahit ano pang pangkat ang kinampihan natin nitong eleksyon.

John 14:27-31a. My peace I give to you
