not taking on additional work or tasks. not working ahead. not having to be productive. a strange break in my schedule has given me a lot of free-time this week, and i have grown to value being bored sometimes more than always having to conquer some aspect of my life. yeah yeah everything is good in moderation but if i want to watch a 50 part tiktok series of some woman talking about her husband instead of doing a project 2 weeks early let me!!!!
thats practically it. boredom is so important. you don’t need to be doing something 24/7. if you are ok with being bored, you don’t need to think about what to do with yourself when you’re alone.
just exist.
no one is bored, everything is boring. making time in your day to be decidedly bored, unoccupied, off your phone, wandering lousily, a tiny bit lazy, and creative is very refreshing.
