One reason you guys might be on steemit right now is because you are bored. We all have those times where we are waiting for something to happen but can't kill enough time. Well, I have some suggestions for you, so stop and read. This might come in handy sometime.
- Read this Meme. Just kidding.
1.Draw A picture. You all have probably heard this one before, but sometimes it really works. The problem is that most people think that they can't draw just because they think it looks like trash.(We'll talk about that another day.) The point is, drawing, even scribbling, can be very relaxing.
2.Read a book. You all have probably heard this one before, too. It was only until recently how much I figured out it works. I am currently reading "Gone with the Wind," a 1000 page novel that probably isn't for everyone, but is a nice suggestion. Look up a list if you honestly can't find one you like.
3.Clean Up. Feeling bored can make your feelings numb, right? What better way to take advantage of this by doing things that you don't like doing, such as cleaning? Whether it's dusting the furniture or doing a complete spring cleaning, cleaning up can be super productive, and doing it when bored saves you a lot of fights with your Parents/spouse.
4.Learn a New language. You might be really exited about this one. Want to sweep girls off their feet? Try your hand at french. Are you in a Japanese fever and want to watch original anime or play Famicon games? Learn Japanese. Want to Intimidate your foes and make them do your evil bidding? Get good at German. (That's the language I'm learning. Its really easy.) Want to talk to everyone else on the southern west cost (A.K.A. California)? Learn Spanish. Just get a language learner app like mind snacks or duo-lingo and you are on your way!
5.Take a walk. One of my favorite pastimes, taking walks on our local trail, has helped me get lots of ideas, and it also helps you to think of something else to do when you get back. It's good exercise, too.
6.Talk with your friends. Just have a conversation with them. If they are your real friends, they will understand, and talk to you about what has been going on in their life. They might even think of something the two of you can do together, too.
7.Research something you are interested in. I am a great N64 nut, man. I can't count the number of times I have looked up something for an N64 game when I was bored. Of course, It doesn't have to be this. It can be about a different country, about something you'd like to undertake... anything!
8.Play a really long board game. I remember for Christmas I got the Infamous "Pokemon Master Trainer" board game, one of the longest games I have ever played. It was so much fun, and I still play it to this day on lazy Sundays. So get out your old monopoly game and watch the hours fly!!!
9.Cook something. I know that some people like to eat when they are bored. That's cool, but wouldn't be even more fun if you cooked what you ate first? That would teach you a new skill... and eat something nice in the process!
10.Go to the store and window shop. I also know that some people like to binge shop when they are bored. Instead of buying things, just go to the mall and see if anything is on sale or if the new iPhone is out.
11.Listen To music. Listening to music can be a lot of fun. You can listen to music to suit your mood, or have a dance party with you family or friends!
12.Write a story. If you have had inspiration in the past, write a story. Heck, you're on a blog site anyway, so just write your story online!
13.Explore the place you live. You might think that you know everything about your city, and that nothing looks different. sometimes seeing the world in a different way can help us break out of your boredom. Try to walk around and find little "Shortcuts" around town.
14.Take A nap. Take advantage of sleeping's time consumption and do a power snooze.
15.Meditate. I have found that a 20 minute meditation can do wonders if done daily. Find some meditation tracks online and relax. Namaste!
16.Just be bored. This one might sound lame to you, but sometimes the best ideas come to us when we aren't doing anything.
17.Memorize something. Can't remember that one part to your favorite song? Now's the time to practice.
18.Exercise. You don't need any fancy pants equipment to get strong-Just do some push ups, sit ups, jumping jacks, or run.
19.Knit. It takes some practice, but knitting has become one of my favorite boredom buster activities. Go to Micheal's and get some yarn, a project and needles, and your all set.
20.Blog Something On steemit! It really wont hurt you, and you can get lots of rewards.
