Psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi (2008) stresses on the fact that people feel the maximum satisfaction and pleasure not when they achieve a result easily, but more so when they need to stretch a little beyond their current comfort zone and take risk to accomplish a task that requires learning additional skills. Csikszentmihalyi calls this stage of experience, which many musicians and artists sometimes mention as the 'zone', as being in the flow, a stage that drives individuals to be creative and surpass their achievements. This paper attempts to bring in a basic understanding of what flow means in general and how one can apply it in one's life as well as how organizations can take the concept of flow and leverage it with their employees in various situations. It is not enough to be happy to have an excellent life. The point is to be happy while doing things that stretch our skills, that help us grow and fulfill our potential. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
