    The document discusses the psychology of optimal experience, also known as flow. It describes flow as a mental state where people are fully immersed in an activity. When in a flow state, people are completely focused on what they are doing. They feel in control of their actions and less aware of themselves as separate from the actions. The document examines how flow states are achieved when a person's skills are fully stretched and matched by challenges that are just about manageable and reachable.
