Embrace boredom
This video really hit me, which I noticed via Kottke. I really try to take time out to be bored but there was no real drive or meaning behind it. For instance I only work 4 days of the week, because I need time to unwind but also need time to process and order everything I’ve encountered.
Arthur Brooks really brings his point across with some good examples but also has some excellent suggestions on how to get and stay bored!
