Being Bored Is Arresting Your Creativity and Costing You Money at Work, Home

Caring relatives and friends will say, "You need to get out more!  Do something different!  Take breaks.  Stop procrastinating!"  Being bored has been an issue for many individuals without them realizing it.  Repetitive routines, endless movie watching, dry conversations at work and home, and spending money on useless stuff contribute to a boring lifestyle.  

It can be difficult to spice things up in your personal and professional life when you don't know what you really want out of your lives.  Do you want more out of your connections?  Do you want to grow in the company?  Do you want to be a better parent?  Do you prefer a leadership role?  

Rather than do what you typically do when you are bored, try deep breathing rather than deep thinking.  Try getting up moving around rather than sitting down and looking at screening devices all times of the day.  Instead of going to a store and spending money you really shouldn't be spending, think of where you could put money to help you achieve goals.  If you don't know what they might be, it may be time for a career or personality assessment to help identify who you are now versus who your were like five years ago.

I realized boredom made me spend far too long on the Internet (and far too much money too).  I had to be more conscious of how I was spending my time and money.  What I learned about myself, I jotted down and what I wanted to do/fix, I use reminder notes and calendars; I needed to do the things that would make my life more interesting including learning new skills so that I could land better employment.  

Taking on boring activities, jobs, projects and so on causes us in time to do things that lead us nowhere instead of somewhere.  I recall wanting to do some things I had planned to do, but when I looked at my finances I had spent money on things that didn't help meet my goals.  When I redirected my finances and worked on those things I really wanted to complete, I found I was less bored and more ready to take on the world with my new ideas and execute my alternative plans.

Of course being bored has its share of positives.  Our feelings of boredom are like the notifications that we see on our phone, we need to read the signs and do something about them!  When you identify the areas in your life that you are most bored, you can address them with the people who might help.  It doesn't always mean to cut someone or something off, but you may need a break from the boring routines and the boring people who are aiding in your boredom and that's okay!
