The Art of Getting Bored.
Q: Why should you trust me ?A: I made a point of writing this while being bored, something that I imagine a lot of people are experiencing right now, but also because I get bored easily and have been since I can remember, at some point I learned that being bored is usually the start to a new exciting project or life change, so now I embrace boredom as part of the creative process and life.
The stages of boredom:
1.The realization. You finished all your chores, work and/or are simply stuck somewhere with nothing to do, or worse with a very repetitive task you’d rather not be doing.
Suddenly a thought starts creeping until it is the only thought you have:
“Shit I am bored !”
or maybe“Dude,man,this is boring!”
or if you are not the verbal type, you make the following sound:hmmmpfffsssss
( pronounced like a slowly deflating balloon ).
2. Existential Angst. This one is fun. Your brain has suddenly found itself unemployed, but it won’t go down without a fight, oh no, who’s fault is this ? It might ask ( hint it’s probably you ), how did you allow yourself to stoop so low ? Remember when you were excited and happy ? The brain remembers and it wants to be there again…
