Hello everyone, how are you doing today? Hope you are having a great time. This will be Week 194, Edition 02 of our Weekly Featured Content.
So, last Saturday we had our hangout as usual, and it was just so much fun that we did not want it to end. We are currently on the second topic for this week, which is “THE VIGILANTE”.
But before we proceed with the details of the topic, let us take a look at the winners of the last topic, which was “BOREDOM CAUSED IT”.
This topic was geared toward each member of the community, telling us about some of the worst things they’ve done when they’re bored. Being bored can have disastrous consequences, especially when people find themselves doing things that ordinarily they would never have considered if they were not so bored.
We got to see that indeed, people have done some pretty crazy things that they’ve gone on to regret. Maybe not things that destroyed their lives, but some that brought them a level of embarrassment at the time. Indeed, boredom can be a very bad motivation to do something. It was an interesting topic.
For this topic, we went through every entry post, and that is every post with the #hl-exclusive & #hl-w194e1; tag. And with the number of wonderful posts out there, it was quite difficult to make a selection. But eventually, we did just that. And so, the posts that will be featured not just for their exceptional content, but also for their level of engagement with other authors, will be listed below.
Featured Contents
BOREDOM!! IT CAN’T HURT A ROBOT by
This author told us that he gets bored easily when he has to repeat the same thing over and over again, giving the illusion that he’s simply running in a circle. He tackles this by taking periodic and strategic breaks for better performance. However, he doubts boredom has ever caused him to do anything he regretted, except costing him precious time.
BOREDOM: A NORMAL FEELING WITH UNEXPECTED CONSEQUENCES by
For this author, she told us about how dangerous boredom can be if we don’t take control of our minds during those moments. For her, one of the things she did when bored was overthinking, many times even thinking about things that she shouldn’t be. She shared tactics to combat it, and how to ensure that such things didn’t happen again.
UNDERSTANDING BOREDOM: A PERSONAL REFLECTION ON EMPTINESS, ROUTINE, AND MINDFULNESS by
For this author, he told us about how the perception of boredom and its causes are different for everyone. Stimulation and being in a state of constant activity could also be the cause, because once that activity is gone, boredom takes its place. There is all that energy and nothing to invest it into. And thus, it's an individual case.
All of the above contents were supported by our official curation account lazy-panda with an extra amount. The first 3 authors will receive 100 ECENCY Points [ Sponsored By Ecency Team (
) ] and 1 $PANDAMINER each as a reward next Monday. These posts were selected because of their special attention to detail and how they followed the topic. There were a lot of good ones out there, but we just could not pick them all.
But then, we have some honorable mentions listed below:
