Evolution of personality

The quote "oddly enough, life becomes cloudless and clear precisely when selfish pleasures and personal success cease to lead a person. When the personality dissolves in a transcendental goal - the creation of excellent verses or excellent furniture, the study of the movement of galaxies or taking care of the happiness of the child - it becomes invulnerable to everyday fears and difficulties.

What about the book
In the first two books - "stream" and "in search of a stream" - the most cited psychologist of our time tells about the state of happiness, the stream in which a person is plunging, doing his favorite thing. In this book, it denotes the contours of the ideal future. He says that environmental, economic crises and crisis of relations should be stopped by people living in a state of flow. The future of mankind is possible only if each personality develops and evolves. If a person can get rid of the fact that he pulls us back, and from the destructive natural instincts and from attempts by society, the authorities and the media to impose his point of view to us. "Evolution of Personality" is a book about the future of mankind.
