Bored out of your mind?
Don’t worry, it happens to the best of us.
When those long streaks of boredom hit, most people will resort to scrolling through their news feed or binge-watching TV shows.
If this sounds like you, it’s high time to reconnect with your inner child and utilize some of those long-forgotten methods for combating boredom — games!
These activities will fuel your imagination, unlock your creativity, and significantly improve your mood.
Sometimes, the strangest things happen and make you think, “This can’t be a coincidence.”
Well, technically, it is.
But this particular coincidence feels like a message.
It feels personal, and you refuse to dismiss it as a meaningless accident.
You’re not sure what it means to listen to the universe, but you do notice things.
And lucky for you, the universe knows plenty of ways to get your attention.
That said, if you’re open to receiving messages from the universe — and you probably wouldn’t be reading this if you weren’t — it helps to know what to look for.
Do you ever feel bored with life?
Most people do live rather uneventful lives for the most part.
We wake up, go to work, come home to chores and watch a little TV, go to bed, and do it all over again the next day.
These patterns become so ingrained that it’s hard to shake loose from them.
After the finishing the final season of your favorite series on Netflix, you look up from the screen and wonder if this is all there is to life.
It isn’t.
Life doesn’t have to be boring.
Yes, it’s hard to break the patterns of malaise and routine, but with a little creativity and determination, you can add more excitement and adventure to your life.
You can take action before your boredom turns to apathy and depression.
If you’re looking for some interesting things to do but don’t know where to start, consider your current situation.
If someone were to write a book about your life, would the title be something like The Predictable Tale of (Insert Your Name Here)’s Monotonous Existence — or would it be The Exciting Escapades of (Your Name)’s Wild and Adventurous Life ?
Your real life probably falls somewhere in between agonizing moments and wanton exhilaration.
Perhaps you experience long stretches of boredom (or busyness) interspersed with moments of joy. (And even fun and joy can become predictable with repetition.)
There will always be moments when it feels like the world is crumbling around you, and you wonder if everything is all your fault.
What if I had done this? What if I never did that — where would I be?
Questions that focus on the past and the “could-have-been” feel paralyzing.
Although the past is fixed, it does contain lessons.
The future, however, holds all possibilities.
If you wonder what to do when your life is a complete disaster, know that you possess tools and wisdom from your past to build a better future.
To help you access these tools, it’s useful to understand exactly why your life is so out of order.
