Finding the Flow

                                         A scene from the documentary "Marley" by Kevin MacDonald.

"Creative individuals have a great deal of physical energy, but they are also often quiet and at rest" (Csikszentmihalyi, Creativity, p. 58).


"And creative people usually enjoy not only their work but also the many other activities in their lives" (Csikszentmihalyi, Creativity, p. 76).

Like all creative individuals, Bob Marley worked hard at his trade.  He sometimes worked around the clock perfecting and recording his music.  He balanced that taxing lifestyle with two "outlets," playing football (soccer) and smoking ganja (marijuana).  He took both of these leisurely pursuits seriously.

Anyone for a... game of football?
