Lazy, Lost and Luck - Boredom Will Bring On All Three

Spend enough days doing nothing and you will go from being bored with all your gadgets, the people around you, and hobbies that you will become quite lazy.  Before long, you lose sight of what is needs to get accomplished each day.  You find yourself wandering around, lost and confused.  You have very little stamina, no sense of direction, and most likely are angering someone around you while stuffing your face with comfort foods.  But sooner or later, luck, as some would like to put it, will come your way.  A long period of doing nothing has a way of not only bringing on upset, but good times too, so stay strong mentally, physically and spiritually.

Job

Routines get old when it comes to work and sometimes unemployment comes out of nowhere. It can be a good thing depending on how stressful the previous job might have been.  Boring times can help some come out of constant moodiness.  Just as one grows weary of being at home, a person can get tired of a job.  There is no challenge, leadership is a bore, workers are boring, and there just doesn't seem to be any life at the workplace.  Laziness has a way of showing up in environments like these. Then there are those moments when you don't know if you even want to work there anymore, much less stay in your career field.  After a drought period of worry, stress, and boredom, what do you know?  Changes are made and you don't find yourself so bored after all.

Lost

When one is lost in the sea of boredom, he or she isn't too happy.  The family often wonders what is going on with the individual.  Life just isn't stimulating and oftentimes the bored person is struggling internally with any number of issues.  Sometimes it is simply the aging process and all that comes with it.  Other times it is a negative mindset about the people, places and things around them.  But whatever the issue, even when one is lost, there will come a point when the individual will see the light and do some things differently.  The best thing that anyone can do when around a lost person experiencing boredom is just make life less chaotic, leave that person alone to think while suggesting some things that might get the individual back on track, but don't overdo it.  Making the transition from being bored for a quite awhile in a marriage, at a job, with a hobby, parenting, or something else is a process and takes time to fill up the time with stimulating activities.

Experiencing laziness, feeling at a lost, and hoping for a lucky event are all common with bored people.  There is no cause for alarm unless one's sulking, complaining, or spending money is causing harm, stress, etc.  If you are going through this period in your life, you will need to start forcing yourself out of this rut.  Do a lot of self-talk.  State out loud what bothers you.  Write down problems and solutions.  Most of all, avoid the temptation to want to spend most of your hard-earned money or someone else's gambling on games, fruitless business opportunities and similar things.  Consider this, there is something good just around the corner, but you will need to have the mind, body, and spirit to handle it, so get those areas in your life in shape! Don't be caught off guard and miss out on a quality life experience sleeping or sitting on the couch eating your cares away.  Also, save your money because most good things we experience in this life have a price.

Bored? Examine Your Finances

Take out your receipts, check your bank account, and view those on and offline purchases.  What does your spending and saving look like?  For some people who made New Year's resolutions regarding saving, spending, and investing money, they have already lost their motivation.

Get back on track by noting what you have spent money for last month such as: food, clothing, computer, entertainment, housing, donations, and more.  When you see the numbers, you just might want to cut back.  You will also learn that most of what you bought, you really didn't need and you could have saved that money for something you do.

Think about ways to do things better this month.  You might need to cut back on the random snacking, stop visiting people for awhile, and volunteering to help others.  You will also discover that you might be bored during certain times of the month which will cause you to spend more.

There are apps that can help you stay on track when it comes to setting up financial goals.  Maybe you need to start setting aside money for a purchase, a vacation, a holiday, or something else.  Check out what is available in the app store.  Also, note your goals and post where you can see them daily.

Here's an example:

Entertainment (movies, restruarants) - Last month $100. This month cut by 50%
Groceries - Last month $250 household contribution. This month add additional $50
Clothing - Last month $25 for a designer t-shirt. This month no wasteful spending.
Utilities - Last month $100 contribution.  This month, no change.
Savings - Last month $0.  This month take money saved from not going out and add here.
December vacation - Last month $20.  This month and going forward will need to add at least $75 monthly. 
Donation - Last month $5 (will need to start getting receipts for taxes). Next month no more than $20.

You get the point.  You total receipts, then note how much you spent.  You will use the totals to determine how much you will save, invest, donate, etc.  Consider using envelopes for cash or setting up separate bank accounts for your plans.  To your success!
