Flow is like when you’re playing with your favorite toy and everything else disappears. You’re so focused on building your blocks or drawing your picture that you don’t even notice the time passing. It’s like being in your own little world where nothing else matters.
Think of a river. When water flows, it moves smoothly and easily, finding its way around rocks and bends. Just like that, when you’re in flow, everything seems to go smoothly. You feel happy and excited, and things don’t feel hard or boring.
Flow is also like when you’re riding your bike down a hill. You feel the wind in your face, and you’re going fast without having to pedal. It’s easy and fun, and you feel free. That’s what flow feels like—being in the moment and enjoying what you’re doing so much that it feels effortless.
