"Flow is not something that only occurs in extraordinary or out-of-the-ordinary activities; it can be found in the simplest moments of everyday life. What matters is not what we do, but how we do it."

My memory, I still remember when I entered first grade as if it were yesterday. At University, specifically in Psychology of Learning, we read that book. The quote I left above underlines an idea of the central concepts of the book: flow is not restricted to complex or exceptional activities, such as playing a musical instrument or playing an extreme sport. Instead, it can be achieved in everyday tasks, such as cooking, working, studying or even having a conversation -or digging a hole in the ground-. **What really matters is the attitude and focus we bring to these activities. By paying mindful attention and engaging with intention, we can transform ordinary experiences into moments of deep satisfaction and personal growth.

Today, we are full of constant distractions, and this idea becomes even more relevant. I am reminded of the importance of cultivating mindfulness and actively seeking ways to engage more deeply with our daily actions, rather than simply -overlooking- our lives. Something I applied in my younger years as an academic.
