How to find your flow

Keep Learning

So how do we find more Flow in our lives, fight boredom and aim towards those best moments? If you watched the video you’ll know that wasting hours glued to social media or the TV is a recipe for boredom – and a flabby brain. There’s only so many times you can see the same cat meme in your feed! So how do you find the right activity for you – one that is both challenging and interesting?

Try using your character strengths. We all have these 24 strengths, but some will be more pronounced than others, so each person has a unique character strengths profile. Each strength falls under one of six broad categories:

• wisdom
• courage
• humanity
• justice
• temperance
• transcendence

Surprisingly though, many of us struggle to name our character strengths let alone use them to our advantage regularly. When we use our strengths, in our work or in relationships, we tend to be more successful and happier.
