LoveBlossoms (Barbara Fredrickson) talks about whether we clowns are flourishing or languishing, having an upward spiral or downward spiral. LoveBlossoms says it is our choice.
We can languish, solidifying our bad habits and becoming more stagnant and rigid.
According to LoveBlossoms, flourishing is more than being happy, it involves doing good, adding value to the world. Clowns who flourish are highly engaged with families, work, and communities. They are driven by a sense of purpose. Flourishing represents our best possible future.
Micko believes that learning to understand and improve our Love Flow is a great way to flourish. It adds value to the world, and it gives us purpose.
We can do this by adopting a Swarm Identity, working to increase our Love Flow and working with other clowns to create a World of Love.
