Most people think of immediacy as something related to what is happening around them when, in fact, the main factor of immediacy is that they are actively involved. Immediacy is considered to be the direct and instant involvement with something. Being involved with something means that you are also participating and possibly affecting the behavior of your experience. I believe the detail of being involved with is crucial as it distinguishes immediacy from any &ldquo;spectator sport&rdquo; where you would be merely watching and not interacting with the situation. Immediacy provides a sense of integration with the situation you&rsquo;re experiencing, making you feel that time stops. The only thing you are doing is absorbing the experience without any contextual boundaries.</p>
