Flow State Definition: An optimal state of consciousness where you are completely immersed in a task or activity. At this point of concentration, your sense of time will likely be altered.
For example, you could be at an activity thinking it's just 45 minutes you spent, but when you check the clock, 3 hrs have just gone by.

That definition up there is how flow state is perceived by many, but what is left out about flow state is that it happens to you when your will is directed towards the task that you're involved in.

There's a difference between an activity you were 'stimulated' or saw the need and conviction to carry out yourself, and an activity you were forced to do.

Popular movies like inception can explain what it means to "stimulate a person" to make an "original thought"
