There is no magic recipe for finding happiness, but one key is to find one key ingredient the ability to reach this state of flow and through this state, to have an "optimal experience".

To achieve this optimal experience we have to focus on increasing the time we spend on activities that bring us to this state of flow, rather than allowing ourselves to get caught up in activities that offer immediate pleasure - like eating too much, abusing drugs, or suffering ourselves with chocolate in front of the TV.
