Answer:

Flow

Step-by-step explanation:

Flow is the mental state of being fully present and fully immersed in a project — it is a strong creativity contributor.

When the creator and the world become one in flow, external stimuli recede from consciousness and one's mind is completely open and attuned to the creative act.
