Csikszentmihalyi is known for his expertise on the autotelic personality, which posits the idea that there are people who perform acts that are intrinsically rewarding to them, rather than pursue external goals.

Flow is a national bestseller written by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi. He also wrote The Evolving Self.
