Your Awesome Everyday Life
The next time you feel like shouting out to the world the status, “I’m Bored”, through your online profiles, do take a step back and reflect on the fact that something could be terribly wrong with you.
I never could understand one thing,with a world full of infinite number of possibilities and infinite number of things that you can do, how the hell can one possibly get bored? Some of the most successful people wake up with the thought, ‘today is the first day of the rest of my life.’ The type of kick needed by a person depends but the bottom line remains that every moment you sit down with boredom, every second you browse through the channels on TV, or go through facebook over and over again, just hoping to get something new, is a moment of opportunity lost.
Some of the choices you have are, learning something new, picking up a book, picking a new hobby, socialising, exercising. Immerse yourself in something you always wanted to do but never could find the time because boredom is hiding all that time and you won’t even realise it the precious moments slipping away.
It’s out of boredom that I started writing here, I’ve been doing it everyday without fail for 31 days in a row, and I don’t plan to stop. Of course the content can be good or bad, but that is not the point. The point is this is how I plan to take advantage of my boredom.
Practical ways for an awesom day, for the people with no time.
- Don’t think you’ll be able to read a book, pick up an audiobook and listen throughout while you tackle other things
- Subscribe to podcasts on topics you find interesting, they’re the best possible things you can do
- Wanting to learn a new hobby, go through endless Youtube videos to learn and try at your own pace and free time.
- Spend more time with friends, a simple call to people you haven’t talked in a while can do wonders
So today when you step out of your house, make sure you come back with that feeling and sense of achievement.
