Reasons your Life is Boring:

You only work all day

0 adventures

0 creativity

0 curiousity

Your friends are boring

Same thing day in & day out

Too much free time

You reliant on alcohol to have fun

You don't challenge yourself

You don't celebrate your wins

'Oh no!! This list sounds a little too familiar..'

Then make the moves to change.

'Will it be easy?'

In the beginning, nah.

But with time & consistency, ya.

'Can you lmk how to get started?'

Sure, 5$ please.

'Forreall?'

Nah jk 👇

▪You work all day

Incorporate rest sessions.

Make sure when you are resting, you are ACTUALLY resting.

Do not rest one second, check your emails the next, then rest, then send emails etc.

Focus on unwinding.

▪0 adventures

When was your last adventure?

'Well last week, I went to Walmart at midnight to buy cookie dough.'

Fool!

That's no adventure.

Travel somewhere you've never been.

Gather your squad (or go by yourself) & be spontaneous.

▪0 creativity

When you carry yourself like a robot, boredom is imminent.

Connect with your inner child homie.

Incorporate creativity into your life.

Ex: draw, expressive writing, do improv etc.

▪0 curiosity

You my friend, have stagnated.

No wonder you never have fun.

You haven't learned diddly squat since graduating college.

Fix that.

We live in the information age.

Go find some topics to educate yourself on.

▪Your friends are boring

If your friends are boring, then that will have a spillover effect if yall chill alot.

Either get new friends, add new friends to your circle or get more comfortable hanging out with yourself.

▪Same thing day in & day out

How are you going to have fun if you're so damn repetitive?

'Uh...'

Exactly.

Find atleast one new thing to incorporate into your day.

Then work your way up from there.

▪Too much free time

Excessive time will have you feeling hella bored.

'So what do I do?'

Fill up your time with hobbies.

Problem solved.

▪Relying on alcohol for fun

If you rely on alcohol to have fun, what will happen when you're sober?

'I'll be bored.'

Exactly.

Make sure you are able to have fun without alcohol or you will always feel empty.

▪You don't challenge yourself

If you have been doing the same EXACT things this year that you did last year, then being bored is a no brainer.

Humans were meant to be challenged.

Find something to force your growth.

'Any suggestions?'

Join Toastmasters & public speak.

▪You don't celebrate your wins

Not celebrating your wins will always make you feel unfulfilled.

I'm speaking from experience.

Idc how small it is.

Celebrate it. Be grateful.

'Even if I just gave up my seat to an elderly person in the bus?'

Ya, celebrate your compassion.

Bottom line is, life is too short to be bored.

There are tons of ways to get around this.

So if you find yourself falling in any of the categories, make moves to change TODAY.

That's all folks! *Porky Pig voice*
