Flow is intrinsically rewarding; it can also assist in the achievement of <a href="/wiki/Goal" title="Goal">goals</a> (e.g., winning a game) or improving skills (e.g., becoming a better chess player).<sup id="cite_ref-Csikszentmihalyi1990_66-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Csikszentmihalyi1990-66"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>66<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Anyone can experience flow and it can be felt in different domains, such as play, <a href="/wiki/Creativity" title="Creativity">creativity</a>, and work. </p><p>Flow is achieved when the challenge of the situation meets one's personal abilities. A mismatch of challenge for someone of low skills results in a state of anxiety and feeling overwhelmed; insufficient challenge for someone highly skilled results in <a href="/wiki/Boredom" title="Boredom">boredom</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-Csikszentmihalyi1990_66-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Csikszentmihalyi1990-66"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>66<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> A good example of this would be an adult reading a children's book. They would not feel challenged enough to be engaged or motivated in the reading. Csikszentmihalyi explained this using various combinations of challenge and skills to predict psychological states. These four states included the following:<sup id="cite_ref-67" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-67"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>67<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <dl><dt>Apathy</dt> <dd>low challenge and low skill(s)</dd> <dt>Relaxation</dt> <dd>low challenge and high skill(s)</dd> <dt>Anxiety</dt> <dd>high challenge and low skill(s)</dd> <dt>Flow</dt> <dd>high challenge and high skill(s)</dd></dl> <p>Accordingly, an adult reading a children's book would most likely be in the relaxation state. The adult has no need to worry that the task will be more than they can handle. Challenge is a well-founded explanation for how one enters the flow state and employs intense concentration. However, other factors contribute. For example, one must be intrinsically motivated to participate in the activity/challenge. If the person is not interested in the task, then there is no possibility of their being absorbed into the flow state.<sup id="cite_ref-Cambridge_University_Press_68-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Cambridge_University_Press-68"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>68<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Benefits">Benefits</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Positive_psychology&amp;action=edit&amp;section=16" title="Edit section: Benefits"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Flow can help in parenting children.

High positivity or <a href="/wiki/Flourishing" title="Flourishing">flourishing</a> could make one incapable of psychological growth, unable to self-reflect, and prone to holding racial biases. By contrast, negativity, sometimes evidenced in mild to moderate depression, is correlated with less distortion of reality. Therefore, Schneider argues, negativity might play an important role: engaging in conflict and acknowledging appropriate negativity, including certain negative emotions like guilt, might better promote flourishing. Schneider wrote: "perhaps genuine happiness is not something you aim at, but is... a by-product of a life well lived—and a life well lived does not settle on the programmed or neatly calibrated."<sup id="cite_ref-134" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-134"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>134<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Role_of_negativity">Role of negativity</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Positive_psychology&amp;action=edit&amp;section=37" title="Edit section: Role of negativity"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p><a href="/wiki/Barbara_S._Held" title="Barbara S.
