【正文】 rage, which is the center of the diagram. That would be your mean level of challenge and skill,which will be different from that of anybody else. But you have a kind of a set point there, which would be in the middle.
　　在研究中，我們用一種簡(jiǎn)單的方式來(lái)追蹤人們的日常生活。我們可以非常準(zhǔn)確的去測(cè)量。事實(shí)上，我們給參與測(cè)試的人發(fā)了尋呼機(jī)，每天會(huì)隨機(jī)呼叫他們10次，每當(dāng)被呼叫，你就要馬上在問(wèn)卷中記錄下自己正在做什么，感覺(jué)怎么樣，在哪里，正在想什么。我們會(huì)測(cè)量?jī)蓚€(gè)指標(biāo)，一是人們?cè)谀且豢趟媾R的挑戰(zhàn)難度，另一個(gè)是人們?cè)谀且豢痰募寄苁炀毘潭?。那么?duì)于每一位參與者，我們都能計(jì)算出一個(gè)平均值，即圖表中的中線，那是這個(gè)人的平均挑戰(zhàn)難度以及平均技能熟練程度，會(huì)與其他人的都不一樣。那是你個(gè)人的設(shè)定值。
　　If we know what that set point is, we can predict fairly accurately when you will be in flow, and it will be when your challenges are higher than average and skills are higher than average. And you may be doing things very differently from other people, but for everyone that flow channel, that area there, will be when you are doing what you really like to do play the piano, be with your best friend, perhaps work, if work is what provides flow for you. And then the other areas bee less and less positive.
　　假如我們能夠知道這個(gè)設(shè)定值是多少，我們就能大致預(yù)測(cè)出你何時(shí)會(huì)走進(jìn)福流狀態(tài)，那就是當(dāng)你的挑戰(zhàn)大于平均值且技能熟練程度也大于平均值的時(shí)候。你做的事情也許和其他人做的很不一樣，但是，對(duì)于每一個(gè)人，福流的出現(xiàn)通常都是在你做自己真正熱愛(ài)的事情的時(shí)候。比如彈鋼琴、跟好友在一起、甚或是工作，工作也可能帶給你福流。而在福流通道以外其他區(qū)域，體驗(yàn)則變得相對(duì)更加消極。
　　Arousal is still good because you are overchallenged there. Your skills are not quite as high as they should be, but you can move into flow fairly easily by just developing a little more skill. So, arousal is the area where most people learn from, because thatamp。39。s where theyamp。39。re pushed beyond their fort zone and to enter that going back to flow then they develop higher skills. Control is also a good place to be, because there you feel fortable, but not very excited. Itamp。39。s not very challenging any more. And if you want to enter flow from control, you have to increase the challenges. So those two are ideal and plementary areas from which flow is easy to go into.
　　”。興奮”。(Arousal)也還不錯(cuò)，因?yàn)槟氵€是有較大挑戰(zhàn)的。盡管你的技能熟悉程度還不夠高，但是你只要再把技能提升一點(diǎn)，就可以很容易地進(jìn)入福流。因此，”。興奮”。是大多數(shù)人學(xué)習(xí)的地方。他們?cè)凇薄Ｅd奮”。中被迫走出舒適區(qū)域去嘗試，然后當(dāng)技能提升之后，就能回到福流區(qū)域。”。控制”。(Control)也是一個(gè)不錯(cuò)的狀態(tài)，雖然不是很激動(dòng)，挑戰(zhàn)也不是很強(qiáng)烈，但是你能感到舒服。假如要從那里走進(jìn)福流，你就要增強(qiáng)挑戰(zhàn)的程度。所以，這兩個(gè)區(qū)域是最理想的、相互補(bǔ)充的狀態(tài)，可以很容易地進(jìn)入福流。
　　The other binations of challenge and skill bee progressively less optimal. Relaxation is fine you still feel OK. Boredom begins to be very aversive and apathy bees very negative: you donamp。39。t feel that youamp。39。re doing anything, you donamp。39。t use your skills, thereamp。39。s no challenge. Unfortunately, a lot of peopleamp。39。s experience is in apathy. The largest single contributor to that experience is watching television。 the next one is being in the bathroom, sitting. Even though sometimes watching television about seven to eight percent of the time is in flow, but thatamp。39。s when you choose a program you really want to watch and you get feedback from it.
　　而挑戰(zhàn)與技能的其他搭配則會(huì)顯得越來(lái)越不理想了?！薄７潘伞?。(Relaxatioin)是好的，因?yàn)槟氵€能感到舒適，但”。厭倦”。(Boredom)就會(huì)產(chǎn)生反作用了，而”。冷漠”。(Apathy)則會(huì)帶來(lái)非常消極的后果，因?yàn)槟阌X(jué)得自己根本就沒(méi)有干出什么實(shí)際的事情。你沒(méi)有在使用你的技能，也沒(méi)有什么挑戰(zhàn)。遺憾的是，很多人所經(jīng)歷的大多是冷漠，而導(dǎo)致這種情緒的元兇就是看電視，其次則是上廁所，坐著。雖然有時(shí)候看電視也有7%8%的時(shí)間是處于福流中的，但那是在你挑選了一個(gè)你真正喜歡的節(jié)目的時(shí)候，并且你能夠得到即時(shí)的反饋。
　　So the question we are trying to address and Iamp。39。m way over time is how to put more and more of everyday life in that flow channel. And that is the kind of challenge that weamp。39。re trying to understand. And some of you obviously know how to do that spontaneously without any advice, but unfortunately a lot of people donamp。39。t. And thatamp。39。s what our mandate is, in a way, to do.
　　因此，我們要問(wèn)的問(wèn)題是，如何使得我們的生活更多的處于福流狀態(tài)。我們正在慢慢的解開(kāi)其中的秘密。你們當(dāng)中有人懂得如何去做，哪怕我不給任何建議?？上Т蠖鄶?shù)人都不會(huì)，而我們的任務(wù)之一，就是幫助那些人尋找到獲得福流的方法。
　　Thank you.
　　謝謝大家!
