As previously discussed, Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi's concept of flow was initially very narrow in its application. Soon, however, other scholars started to apply this wonderful idea to other areas. One of the most important areas where it was applied was in sports. The idea that there is a mental state where a person can perform at optimum while...

This post is meant to be a repository of their responses, and nothing else, i.e. you will not find typographic experimentation in this post. That will come later on in other posts. There are also...

Hungarian psychologist Mihály Csíkszentmihályi has done research into something he calls flow. Flow is a state of mind in which a person is totally concentrated in an activity and is and is at an optimum level of performance. This phenomenon was initially proposed by Dr. Csíkszentmihályi to be applicable in extrinsic applications such as...

ax² + bx + c = 0 (ax² + bx + c)*4a = 0*4a 4a²x² + 4abx + 4ac = 0 (4a²x² + 4abx + 4ac) + b² = 0 + b² (4a²x² + 4abx + b²) + 4ac = b² (2ax+b)² + 4ac = b² (2ax + b)² = b² - 4ac 2ax + b = ± √(b² - 4ac) 2ax = -b ± √(b² - 4ac) x = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac))/2a
