Taking Care Of Boredom In My Own Way

in #hive-1538507 hours ago

As it is always said that an idle mind is the devils workshop. Viewing these words critically I have come to realize that this is so true. Daily the day breaks with lots of opportunities that it just takes one the right mind position to plug into it. As humans it is not always that we need to get engaged with things doing, it is very important to give some time to rest so we could have some rest because if we breakdown because of busy schedule we will still end up using same money we Hussle for to take care of the body and the times we are down we may not be able to do any meaningful thing the days of our illness.

Ever since I understood that work itself does not have an end I decided to be giving myself some time out because one thing I hate is to see myself breakdown. Imagine as a mother breaking down who will care for my family? Best of which I don't have a house help so as I can't afford to see my children unkept I better do myself the good of being strong despite all.

Just last week I was discussing with one of my friends, I told her how I wish to have some time within the week to just do nothing because of the stress I have been through the previous week. We had an outreach in my Church combined with harvest. Within the days of preparation my daughter was down with fever, so some days we barely slept and that continue till early last week. It became so obvious that I needed some rest. On my friends part she was so engaged with travel preparation so she was like, aah she don't even dream of a day she will just stay without doing anything. This my friend is a real hustler, no ideal time with her. I just encouraged her that it is important to spear some time out to give her body some rest as we just need to stay healthy as money does not finish.

As we concluded I left, the day she was to travel came and I called to ask how the journey was going, she said she couldn't make it because she became down with fever late in the evening and her husband told her not to travel again. Shortly I went over to visit her I was just laughing at the whole thing as she was unable to do any meaningful thing. I reminded her of our discussion and she was just speechless.

Well, as humans we find it difficult to just stay without doing anything especially when we are healthy, we unconsciously overwork our body then go to rest. The times of rest still need some activities for it to be memorable.

So to this I engage in several things so as to make sure I don't just waste those times. One major thing I do is to sleep. Giving my body that cool moment is the best I could do for myself at that time when am less engage. One other thing I can do to relax my head is to watch Mount Zion movies. This movie industry do have lots of movies both on family life and more.

Fixing up ourselves when bored helps us to manage our emotions and gather our thoughts together. This is my entry to the first edition contest for this week. Thank you for visiting my blog

Sort:  

Your friend is a typical workaholic and hence, felt inadequate when she came down with fever which may have been complicated by the protracted stress she had been subjected to.

Trust me, if one gets bored, just download Mount Zion movies and watch. You won't feel bored at all. It's an effective coping mechanisms. Lol

All work and no play makes Jack a stupid boy. Having sometime with a friend can erase the element of becoming bored. Working without resting cannot make one remain agile, but can make one remaining in a boredom state.
