New camera, now what?
Each month we are bombarded by new tech, which should be better, faster, larger batteries, supporting more duration of action..
I bought this :
After buying, there is a buyer's remorse, which is sort of sadness that you spent your money on something aren't too needed.
That is similar to the case of new iphone, new samsung, especially when you have the previous one or two generations directly before it, the improvement is barely seen. That is mainly because the product cycle is not finished yet, and your buying is based on impulse, a promise of happiness, or sensation of flow that you think you will be in for while, but in reality the flow is based on action you do, not a product you buy.
You can easily slip into flow like writing on piece of paper, products are meant to ease and prolong your journey into flow state.
So what is the state of flow that people rave about ?
As per wiki : In positive psychology, a flow state, also known colloquially as being in the zone, is the mental state in which a person performing some activity is fully immersed in a feeling of energized focus, full involvement, and enjoyment in the process of the activity
Like a musician is his peak performance, dancer, photographer or writer, any physical or mental experiances that immerses somebody in the moment where he / she cannot feel the time which goes by very fast.
It is worth mentioning that flow state to be reached, is better to be well-trained for that, indicative of investing enough time and effort to reach peak performance.
This aforementioned video where I talk about pomodoro technique, in french :) videographed by the new kit. I used to use this technique when studying, but now I prefer just to jump into the moment and without rest, to finish the job if possible.
There is forest program which uses this technique on mobile phones if interruptions what sets you back.
This is for this week, have a good week-end!
