What

Work
fills

boredom,
watching

To
answer
this
question,
Csikszentmihalyi
studied
thousands

and
he
found
the
key.
People
are
happiest
when
they
challenge
themselves
with
tasks
that
demand
a
high
degree
of
skill
and
commitment,
and
which
are
undertaken
for
their
own
sake.
Instead
of
watching
television,
play
the
piano.
Take
a
routine
chore
and
figure
out
how
to
do
it
better,
faster,
more
efficiently.
In
short,
learn
the
hidden
power
of
complete
engagement,
a
psychological
state
the
author
callsflow.
Though
they
appear
simple,
the
lessons
inFinding
Floware
life-changing.
