#60: Boredom isn't a 4-letter word
Episode description
Making it part of your weekly routine to observe a brief period of a self-imposed fast from working or even thinking hard - allowing yourself to be bored for a time and not resisting it - can have a rather surprising effect. When you make that decision and just let things go for a while, feelings of boredom can be replaced with a heightened state of inner peace and relaxation. Yes, this will require an intentional effort for those who are wired to become anxious at the very thought of purposely sitting idle as if doing so is not only a colossal waste of time but will lead to losing that edge; maybe even a fear that you'll like it a bit too much and start overdoing the doing nothing bit. Be willing to view this as a strategic move that has a balancing effect that enhances your capacities to do what you need to do to succeed in life.
