# Autotelic

*I make the conditions for [[Flow]] in the world around me by seeking continuous [[awareness]] and [[Mastery Learning]].*
This reminds me of learning [[Mindset]], always looking for the world to teach you, always getting in the position of climbing till I fall and actively creating the conditions for learning.
It's kind of like the [[hedonic treadmill]] for learning; I can always learn more! If I can focus on avoiding [[Power Leaks]], then I can focus on experiencing the process of [[Identifying Reality]] and using the [[Coaching]] given by life!
This matters because if I am an autotelic I'm not dependent on life to give me possible risky moments of learning. I can instead be putting myself at the edge of my performance in everyday life.
This requires that I am looking to pay the proper [[focus attention]] on the feedback the world is actually giving me.
### What would the opposite argument be?
Why push yourself? Life is hard enough! Don't look for opportunities where you can fail, just give your best and see what happens.
