Is boredom a bad thing?

Every one has experienced being bored, whether it’s while your waiting in line somewhere, waiting on hold during a phone call or just bored because you have to much spare time and nothing to do.

Boredom is seen very negatively no one wants to be bored however very few people see the benefits of it!

While you are bored you are usually not doing anything so your mind is begging for stimulation and most people do this by doing a mundane task such as watching tv or playing with there phone. This is not what you should do!

See boredom as a special time to learn something new about yourself.

Instead of going back to what you always do find something new you like or just relax and let your mind do it for you.

Your mind is a great thing and when left on its own it can have great ideas, that’s why the next time you are bored spend half an hour meditating and then write down all the thoughts that come to you for then following half an hour.

Some will be pointless some will be interesting and exciting. You have to be creative and let your mind find new possibilities.

Stop being bored and be creative!
