Tips for how to stop feeling bored with life
Here are some tips for how to stop feeling bored with life.
Find things that inspire you
If you’re not reading, watching, listening, or doing anything that is inspiring to you, how do you expect to be inspired?
But when you’re really inspired to learn about something or do something new, you definitely aren’t feeling bored with life.
Remember when you were younger and it seemed like there was so much out there to explore and do? I remember.
My best friend and I used to play and sing this song before graduating from high school over and over because we were so excited about possibilities. It was called “I’m moving out.”
It makes me laugh now just thinking about it. I can feel that sense of wonder we had about the world and our future lives.
I’m sure you have some sort of memory that gives you a feeling like this. Well, I want you to get it back!
Wake yourself up. Wake up your soul again. Get inspired again.
You may not be as young as you used to be, but you haven’t explored everything there is to explore yet.
Think of all the things that exist on this earth – all the places. And if that doesn’t interest you, think of all the things that exist but you can’t see them here on this earth! Spiritual things and quantum physics.
Know that you’re here for a reason
You’re here for a reason, and it definitely isn’t to be bored. So, figure out what you want to do – what YOU want to do, not what you think you should do or want.
Find your purpose. Dig deep inside and listen to your soul. It’ll tell you. It’ll get you inspired about things.
So, open up to possibilities again. Ask questions like if I could do anything at all what would it be.
What were you passionate about before? What did you have planned? What did you truly enjoy doing when you were younger? These are just questions for ideas – to spark creativity and imagination.
Find something to be passionate about – something you really care about. And, this can be anything.
But, everyone has a purpose for being here. Think about it – a certain amount of time here, lessons learned here.
You aren’t an accident and you weren’t accidentally put here. So, imagine, create, explore, and live out your time here!
Know that feeling bored with life is normal
Feeling bored with life is normal. What I mean is, everyone goes through it at some point even if for just bits of time. So, don’t be hard on yourself and don’t think I’m not understanding.
I get it, and I’ve been there. Sometimes I have to shake myself out of it. And, that’s what you have to do. Shake yourself out of it.
The difference between who I used to be and who I am now is that now I “shake myself out of it” faster and more often. I mean, when it comes to feelings.
And, feeling bored is just that – a feeling. And, we can have more power over our feelings than we sometimes think we can.
You have the power to make yourself get up and go do something. And, anything at all will do at first – just so that you get up and moving, or doing something.
I often find that if I can just get up doing something, I can get inspired again to do what I need to do. So, use this idea if it helps you feel better and get inspired again.
Believe in possibilities
Sometimes it’s not just that we can’t find anything that interests us. Sometimes it’s that we gave up on ourselves.
See, if we gave up on ourselves we stopped believing in the great possibilities for our lives. We may have stopped believing those good things could happen for us, or we stopped believing we deserved them.
We may have quietly given up on our lives.
If this is you, know that you aren’t alone. Many of us, including me, have gone through this. And, I’m here to tell you that you can come out on the other side with the warm sun shining on you, making you smile again.
It isn’t over ‘til it’s over. And, your life on Earth isn’t over yet – you’re still here. You’ve made it this far, and you’re gonna make it even further. So, you might as well start living your life again!
God wants so many good things for you. And, you may think of it as the Universe wanting good things for you, and that’s okay too. To me, it’s all related.
But, have you heard of the saying that God is good? God states in the bible that if he’d take care of the birds so well, what makes us think he wouldn’t do even more for us. Us, His creation.
So…
You can be sure that no matter what anyone has ever told you or made you feel, your creator (no matter what you call this creator) wants good things for you. You deserve them, and you’re worthy of them. Don’t forget this.
