One. When anyone ever talks to you about something you keep bringing up the same subject matter about things like ie.) kids, jobs, etc. Your conversation rarely changes.
Two. You don't talk with enthusiasm, a sense of happiness, or seem like you even enjoy living.
Three. You visit the same places in your free time and you don't bother to go elsewhere for any number of reasons like: it's just easier, cheaper, or a shorter distance from a job. Therefore, if you don't go anywhere, but the same spots all the time, you don't have nothing new to really say and you limit your life experience.
Four. People tell you things like, "You are boring...Do you get out much?" They don't bother to call invite you anywhere or visit you.
Five. Loved ones don't hear from you or see you much even your intimate relationship is declining because you don't bother to take any personal or vacation days to do anything fun or different. You rarely look outside yourself and your routines.
Six. You don't act interested in what others have to say, and you don't look for opportunities to relate to others in ways that make them want to enjoy your company.
As you ponder these points, think about other things you might not say or do that make people feel like you are a bore. Spice your personal and professional life up a bit by changing the way you do things, checking in with your significant and children to find out what their needs might be, and take a look around your personal dwelling, neighborhood and elsewhere for problems that you might be able to solve. Being helpful and encouraging toward a variety of people (outside of your job), and reflecting on who you are and your purpose for living are just a few things that will help you toward getting out of your boring slump. Write a list of things that you would like to do and share with your loved ones. Set a date and time and do what you promised yourself and others.
