Boredom: Time for self-reflection and creativity

    Hello, friends!

    Welcome to another featured contest of the week. It's been a beautiful journey God has brought us far. It's God's Mercy we are not consumed. It's a new week, a new opportunity, new ideas, wisdom, and connections.

    I'm a human who is used to boredom and I think it's the best time to reflect on yourself and yourself in the future. To me, there is no mental boredom on my part because there are a lot of things I would get myself involved in. There are movies on the internet I could sit and watch and learn and that will bring refreshment mentally to my brain. Boredom is a human structure or coinage, such things shouldn't exist in your dictionary. Before I used to say, I'm feeling bored. One day, I complained to my dad that I was feeling bored, and he shouted at me. He is a pastor, and he was like, in which verse of the scripture talks about boredom, I was silent for some minutes and said to him, 'I haven't seen it in the bible. This almost brought quarrels to the house, so I had to mellow down for God to use me 🤣🤣🤣

    Many times, boredom can be the worst that can happen to a person, but it doesn't; it's a pathway for people to grow, reflect, and make some emotional adjustments in their lives. People who don't understand boredom would rather allow the influence of it to overwhelm them instead of using the negative part of boredom to work on themselves. Things came to this world with positive and negative influences. The weaknesses of things can make a man discover himself and breed improvement in himself. When I'm bored that's the best time for me and my brain to think and bring encapsulations.

    What are the things we should do during this time

    We have many things to do at the time of facing boredom. These are the things I mostly do.

    sleeping

    Sometimes, if I have nothing to think about, I go to bed and have a siesta. This is the best thing to do first, and when you are awakened, your mind will be refreshed. Ideas will come, and creativity and many beautiful aspirations will come to your mind.

    Reading

    There was a time when I felt so bored that I couldn't read. I didn't know that O read a boring book that contributed more to my boredom since I never tried to read a dull book, but books that will inspire and motivate me to do more. Reading motivational books is encouraging to your mind, soul, and spirit.

    Seeing Movies

    This is another thing that sets your mind on fire, like movies that will inspire, movies that will bring laughter, and entertainment that makes you think the other way.

    Chat with friends

    Chatting with my friends has been helping me, especially my male friends. They help me to think deeply and strengthen my emotions, and this brings excitement to my mind.

    These are the things l mostly do but not all at the same time. I encourage you to practice these things when you have nothing to think about, after doing these, it will bring your mind up

    This post is in response to the #Hivelearners featured contest, week 138 edition 1.

    Thank you for reading through.

    I love, I care, and I forgive

    I remain @peckypeace
