If you are bored, take a look what you are doing. Try to maximize that to your days and weeks, you can even feel how time seems to slow, and days getting longer and longer.
When your begin managed those days and they dont "bored you to death" anymore, you get only what is left in your hands; extra time to e.g to think twice that thing which there was no time earlier, -or feel so sure about it, -or try to find another point of view on something else, or another possibility some issue, another solution, etc.
