Boredom is a killer. We start doing random meaningless things, like checking Facebook several times an hour. Eating unhealthy food. We might even start to become a little sad. Boredom on the other hand, can also be the start of something creative.

Don't Let Bordeom Control You

If we let ourselves be bored, we are not in control. Boredom is controlling our actions, and our emotions. We are left with a feeling of emptiness, and a feeling of everything being meaningless. This is the result of being controlled. We have a choice though. We have a choice, to dig into this feeling of boredom. We can let the boredom be the start of creation. If we choose to observe the boredom, and not let it control us, we can turn it around. Observe, accept, and then take action.

Take Control

Take control. We can start by eliminating the things that are feeding your boredom. Maybe you should shut down your computer? Maybe you should leave your room? Maybe you should turn off the TV? If you are bored, look around and observe. What is currently feeding your boredom? Then eliminate that. If we do this, then we are more in control.
