“Boredom is not a potent energy. Is it a mask for some other energy?” was a great question from a recent participant at a Being You, Changing the World class!
[audio:http://drdainheer.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Blog-8-Boredom.mp3|titles=Blog #8 Boredom]How often do you get bored? How often do you use boredom as a form of sabotage… where you are not being or doing all that you could because you are bored?
You could stay bored and impotent… or you could ask:
- What potency am I refusing with this boredom I am choosing?
- What joy am I refusing with this boredom I am choosing?
Or you could ask… Am I getting bored because it’s time to change something?
- What other possibility am I not choosing?
- What else can I do? What else can I be? How else can I experience this? How else can I express this? What else is possible?
How much fun can you have instead?
