You may wonder why I raised this topic or how can a person enjoy boredom! But, look around, we are all alone. We all fear to face loneliness and this causes the most harm in our mental health.
In today's modern society, we don't have time for each other. We use social media to 'haha' on topics but do not smile in real life. We are living in apartments, staying away from our family, living alone, we do not make many friends, we fake about ourselves and it's a never-ending list. Is not that true? If so, then why not think about enjoying our loneliness?
Boredom is not always bad. You really can enjoy it. But we have to practice it and have to know what can help us to fall in love with it. So let's talk about it!
The first thing I can suggest to you is, 'Choose a habit which you enjoy'. Anything; reading books, painting, singing, watching movies, crafting, pets I mean anything. Make yourself habituated with it. Involve yourself on that task.
Do try to involve yourself in something productive, this will help more. So not just reading books, try to write and build up skills in writing. Don't just listen to music try to sing or play. You will feel the amazing side of producing something.
Focus on the output of any task. Like do not scroll on social media, there is no real outcome. Rather try to do something which can give you the outcome. Like planting trees, working on some personal projects, weight loss, yoga and many more. That outcome can be measurable and it will help you to feel good and enjoy your lonely hours.
Don't worry about how you perform or how you are doing during your lonely hours. It can not always same or productive. Accept that, give yourself some time and just relax.
Let's be real: there are some things that we should do that are always going to be a hassle. Dealing with loneliness is not easy and enjoying it is much harder than we think. Your only goal is to “not break the chain of loneliness.” Shift your focus away from the activity you dislike and giving yourself an opportunity to fall in love with the boredom can really help to enjoy your life.
