I emphasized the importance of building my own flow state to maximize creativity and productivity, particularly if I’m a creator, educator, or community builder rather than just focusing on developing apps.
Flow state is a concept coined by psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi (pronounced “cheek-sent-me-hi”) in the 1970s. It describes a mental state of total absorption in an activity, where your sense of time distorts, self-consciousness drops away, and performance peaks almost effortlessly.
Csikszentmihalyi called it “optimal experience,” and he found it across every domain he studied: surgeons, rock climbers, chess players, musicians, writers.
→ One thing worth noting: flow isn't something you force. You create the conditions, then you let it arrive. The more you try to "make" it happen, the more that prefrontal cortex stays active and blocks the very state you're chasing.
