I have a addition to this that has implied huge to my own life. When getting bored of things u "love doing" take a step back from those things. Come into yourself, meditate, take a nap, go on vacation or whatever it is you need. Especially meditation is a great thing to do while bored.

@powerdreamer374 Месяц назад

Chronic states of boredom with all of existence is what led to my substance abuse. I have found reading books to be the most effective way of dealing with this problem that I still struggle with daily. They tend to extend the periods of time in which I want to take a "hit" to stave off the feelings of boredom and powerlessness because reading things to completion cause a mild euphoric feeling that overcomes my cravings for extended periods of time. Plus, I become an expert in many random things.

This resonates with me a lot. as a kid, I didn’t have an iPad or video games or even cable TV, so that crushing sense of boredom led me to draw and paint a ton.. I got in my 10k hours young so without a ton of natural talent i became a professional artist.

Because of boredom, young people used to invent wild new fashions and new genres of music (e.g., rock-n-roll, reggae, hip hop, EDM). Not minor subgenres, but entirely new genres. Today, kids mostly dress like their parents and just stare at their phones. No Boredom = No Creativity.

@arno_13 Месяц назад

Thank u, perfect timing. I had an exam for my Abitur, highest degree in germany required to enter a university etc. nearly 5 hours of writing, than I imediatly went to another appointment of mine and since there wasn‘t enough time to go home till the next one I‘m waiting since 3 p.m. (3 hours). Got nothing to do so I started feeling empty and though my depression is coming, quite commen for me I got a lot of hate and bitternes inside me besides being 18 mostly towards myself. Tried to read but aint helping much. Thank u for providing me information to name my demon and giving me advice how to deal with it.

Thank you Robert for this video and for your valuable content in general! Been thinking a lot about boredom lately and feeling particularly bored while working at my job. It is a very deep and profound feeling of boredom and kind of scary because it is also quite depressing. I know for sure that this is a sign to change my job and to do something that will excite me more. It‘s just a bit hard to change that over night… But your video came right on time 😊🙏🏼

@christopherbramwell8262 Месяц назад

Great subject to talk about. Everyone has different needs & wants to fulfill a work/life balance. Health activities are exercise and mindfulness. Yet, those are activities that require effort so some leisure has to take place. Something easy & enjoyful like watering flowers or painting or anything that is just fun. Something that you've been putting off will make you feel better in that you finally accomplished something that either needed to be done or that you just wanted to do. Sending an email or a letter to a friend is a great way to stay connected. Thank you, as always, for your advice Robert Greene.

Excellent advice as usual.. and what a great new topic. Schopenhauer said boredom was part of the human condition along with suffering it simply evidence that unlike what Rousseau said, humans are not naturally content.

@thedjruiner 12 дней назад

This is true. I started reading your books in prison in 2010, The Art of Seduction, 33 Strategies of War, 48 Laws of Power, studied and annotated them day in and day out among hundreds of others but your works in particular I had always wanted to get into but never had the time. When I went to prison I was like, man I finally have time to really read. This skill has saved me in the free world since, these last 3 years ive been recovering, and using my down time to build myself up. Thank you for all you do Robert.

@malcolmmacinnis247 Месяц назад

Yes Boredom is often quite useful because in many cases we get in our own way and create problems in order to manufacture a purpose whilst bored. Oftentimes I feel we sometimes have to step back and receive the boredom for a short period to simply allow ourselves a period of respite from issues. Can't say I always follow that sentiment, usually end up doing something hedonistic instead. But the sentiment is there

@SacTimonWild Месяц назад

i feel bored in the most inconvenient situations. For example at work and very often while socializing .. I’m guessing I gotta switch up something but I don’t know yet what. Good to hear that boredom is a signal, I gotta do something to change this

@popo0129 Месяц назад

Wow I thought I was going to hear something different funny enough realizing it is the opposite of what you would teach. I was thinking you would have to fight that boredom. I been not wanting to work on a person project for a few days now but I been slowly working on it while doing something after say 10 minutes that keeps me entertained for a bit. Realizing now, what work I have done for this has actually been better than if I were to force myself into this. I know the reason for procrastinating might be due to the unknown of how people will react to the project but just compromising with myself to work and do something mindless that is fun is helping me get into the work. Thank you for the video love watching these, been on 50th Law and love it so far going for 48 Laws of Power after I finish!

Boredom isn’t a thing. There is no “boredom.” There’s peace and contentment or the absence of peace and discontentment and this is what “boredom” is and it’s why we have so much hyperconsumerism, addiction, lack of commitment in relationships/ high divorce rate, family instability, etc. It’s the lack of peace and contentment.

Think about this. When we are bored, its not that we dont know what to do. Its that we feel something unbearable that we feel we cant change for the moment, so we disconnect from our feelings, thus feeling bored. Example: Waiting in line at the bankm we feel fustrated, but we cant change that, so we disconnect, thus feel bored.
