When people stay alone, they feel lonely and bored. What can make people feel less lonely and less bored? According to scientists' study, when people put heart into an activity and enjoy it, they will get a feeling called" flow"(心流) and then it makes them feel happy. But how can people get the feeling of flow? Here are the ways.
First, the activity must be something you are really good at. If you do well in art, playing the piano or painting can lead to flow. Things like skiing, writing and storytelling can, too.
Also, the activity must be something you really enjoy. When you are interested in something, you put your heart into it and enjoy yourself. Then, you get into a state(状态) of flow. When you leave the state of flow, you are often surprised by how much time has passed.
Besides, the activity must have some challenges(挑战). If the activity is too easy, then you may feel bored and" flow" will not appear. For example, watching TV usually doesn't help people get the feeling of flow, because there aren't any challenges.
So, to get a feeling of flow, you should develop a hobby that you like, put your heart in it and practice it, then you will feel less bored and less lonely when staying alone.
