I hate it when people say, “I never get bored.”
The other phrase I hate is “If you’re bored, you’re boring.”
I work hard to make conversations and situations as interesting for myself as I can. But if I don’t try, I can lapse into a state very much like being shut up in a room where the air is stale. It feels like my brain can’t breathe or move.
Perpetually bored people mess up their lives when they drop out of school, change jobs too often or ditch good marriages. Some people say they like doing the same thing over and over. I believe that repetition is a way of reducing anxiety. To stoke your inner , keep trying new things, or delve deeper into an area you already know and love, triggering fresh insights. “You can get hits either way,”
“The best way not to be bored is to do what you like doing, typically something you’re good at.”
LOVE,
Scarlett
