How to deal with boredom


Are you dissatisfied with what life offers you? Do you feel placid, hard to please and sick of the humdrum existence of life? Do you desire to live a life that’s exciting, new and full of fun and adventure?

The truth is that most people around the world do much the same thing every day. They get up, go to work, come home and eat dinner, watch some television and then go to bed. Sadly, for so many people that’s all life offers them. With such monotony it’s easy to understand why so many people are literally bored to death with their lives!

The message of boredom

Boredom is a signal sent by your subconscious mind to motivate you to take a certain action. It’s a sign that you haven’t been feeding your curiosity drive that all humans have. Unfortunately people respond to this message by just sitting on their sofa and watch television, but this is just counterfeit excitement and you will soon discover that you are bored again! To get rid of boredom in your life you have to take certain specific actions.

How to stop feeling bored

To escape the boredom rut it is really important for you that you keep feeding your curiosity drive. You will never be happy with just a monotonous life, no one will. So to be truly happy, you must keep growing, keep learning and keep expanding your horizons. When you find yourself overwhelmed with the boredom of life, it is time you step out of your comfort zone and do things that you haven’t done before. Here are some was to break the boredom rut in your life:

• Change your lifestyle. Know what makes you happy and incorporate that into your life. Life is too short to waste on doing things that give you no enjoyment and happiness. Understand what drives you and spend your time doing those things. This will take away feelings of boredom absolutely!

• Have a life purpose and an exciting vision for your life. Remember it is the will of God for all of His children to prosper; but it is ultimately up to you to get up and make the first move to get God's will for your life into action.  So chase after your vision with you whole heart. When you are working towards something that is dear and close to your heart, you will never be bored about life because the future that you are working towards will seem so exciting.

• Affiliate with people that you want to become like. Stop hanging out with people who gossip and do nothing with their lives. Get into circles of people who are successful and going somewhere! By joining a country club for example, there will be many opportunities to meet exciting new people.

• Work hard towards creating the life of your dreams. Create goals that you are pumped about! This is one of the best ways to kill your boredom. Once you have goals that keep you excited about life and motivated, you will have a reason for living. You won’t have the time to be bored anymore because you will be so busy accomplishing your dreams!
