You have heard about how a musician loses herself in her music, how a painter becomes one with the process of painting. In work, sport, conversation or hobby, you have experienced, yourself, the suspension of time, the freedom of complete absorption in activity. This is "flow," an experience that is at once demanding and rewarding--an experience that Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi demonstrates is one of the most enjoyable and valuable experiences a person can have. The exhaustive case studies, controlled experiments and innumerable references to historical figures, philosophers and scientists through the ages prove Csikszentmihalyi's point that flow is a singularly productive and desirable state. But the implications for its application to society are what make the book revolutionary.
Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi is a Hungarian psychology professor, who emigrated to the United States at the age of 22. Now at Claremont Graduate University, he is the former head of the department of psychology at the University of Chicago and of the department of sociology and anthropology at Lake Forest College. He is noted for his work in the study of happiness and creativity, but is best known as the architect of the notion of flow and for his years of research and writing on the topic. He is the author of many books and over 120 articles or book chapters. Martin Seligman, former president of the American Psychological Association, described Csikszentmihalyi as the world's leading researcher on positive psychology. He once said "Repression is not the way to virtue. When people restrain themselves out of fear, their lives are by necessity diminished. Only through freely chosen discipline can life be enjoyed and still kept within the bounds of reason." His works are influential and are widely cited.
一段话概述: 这本书通过对意识、自我、注意力和精神能趋疲等几个概念的研究,发现了一种可以帮助人成长和幸福的途径——产生心流。在心流里,人们完全沉浸其中,意识全神贯注,与周边合为一体忘我忘他,自我整合、复杂然后成长,使人更快乐,更幸福。要体会心流需要几个要素:...
评分1、精神能趋疲 一个小故事:今天你实在是很倒霉,上课(上班)迟到不小心被老师(老板)抓到,结果被骂了一通,回到家,你看到小妹妹(你的家人),就对她撒气。小妹妹也很郁闷,就去踹小猫,小猫莫名其妙被踹,也不会无所作为,愤然离家出走……….这种情形就是作者提到的“精...
评分 评分你相信吗?我每天上班唯一的事情就是盼着下班! 王木木一脸郑重的看着我说,生怕我不相信这一点。看着这个对我说自己“职业倦怠”的女孩如此认真的样子,我忍不住有点儿想笑。 那么,请说说你的工作吧! 于是,她露出一脸的不堪回首: 每天上班做的事情都是重复重复再重复的各...
评分过了30岁生日,突然觉得时间紧迫,于是在生日那天在朋友圈po生日照的时候,照搬了某位网红的签名:“我还年轻,我没有时间。”即便如此,我好像也没有真正的目标,不知道这时间用来做什么。工作?谈恋爱?热衷相亲和结婚?下班后的充电学习?专注于某项运动? 没有目标,再多...
作者为人生提供了一个无限适用的解决方案,鼓励我们去追求complexity,complexity里面蕴藏着optimal experience, 也就是flow,而能体会到心流才是幸福所在。在以 skills / challenge分别为横纵轴的象限内,存在一个 flow tunnel,在这个tunnel内,挑战和技巧的相匹配,tunnel的左边是anxiety,tunnel的右边是boredom,寻找到这个tunnel是我们面对各种体验时的目标。书的逻辑:1.定义“幸福” 2.解剖“意识” 3.解释何为enjoyment和生活质量 4.flow的条件 5.身/心的flow 6.工作/人际关系的flow 7.阻碍flow的障碍 8.人生的意义(比较不明所以),读起来挺爽,每天100+页。
评分All about the user experience ????
评分这本书,强烈推荐!虽然是全英文,但读起来酣畅淋漓,不断地有心流体验。还有很多生活实例,边读边反思,很有启发。
评分哈哈哈老师一上课就说you can't graduate from Parsons without knowing Csikszentmihalyi,当然最inspiring的还是 比起工作伙伴,找到可以play with的人更重要ww
评分这是一本写给大众看的理论书。从人类学的案例研究,到积极心理学的理论创建,再到几十年被应用被挑战被延伸。这一切告诉我们……一个理论的出名,需要一个好名字。
