To enjoy life, break old patterns and have new experiences.
from Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
Having new experiences will boost your happiness and creativity. Neuroscientists say that time slows down when we have new experiences and this increases our quality of life.
How to Apply This
-
Become aware of the patterns of your life.
Notice that you do the same thing every day—wake up, shower, work, watch TV or socialize, sleep, and repeat. -
Break the pattern by doing something completely new.
You can break the pattern by traveling to a new city over the weekend and spending the whole day exploring, eating new kinds of food, and meeting new people. Do something new and fresh.
