You know when you feel those moments during the day when you just get seem to concentrate on too much of anything. Then later, you find yourself bored with having to do some repetitive tasks. You can actually cut off some of those "I'm bored" feelings before they catch up with you by doing the following things.
1. Turn on background noise the minute you start feeling like you are getting weary of whatever you are or not doing.
2. Take a short walk whether in or outdoors--a long walk might weary you. The short break will keep you from falling asleep at your desk. Then get back to whatever you need to do.
3. Do a simple task such as: wiping something off like your computer screen or dust. This way you don't become so bored with whatever you are doing that you don't want to complete it. Then go back to what you were doing.
4. Return a phone call, check email or chat with a co-worker. Sometimes communicating with others will distract you from feelings of boredom.
These are just four ideas to get you started, check around this site for more. Feelings of boredom can come on you quite suddenly and before long you are forgetting about what you were supposed to do. You find yourself distracted looking at YouTube videos; instead of tending to important tasks. If you haven't done this already, note some things you must get done today. Then refer back to your list when you start feeling bored. Chances are you just might remember to do something before you become very bored.
Have a great day!
