A wise old man was asked by his guest.
Guest: "Actually, what's that 'bored' feeling, old man?"
Old Man: "Bored is a state where the mind wants change, wants something new, and wants to stop the routine of life and the monotonous state from time to time."
Guest: "Why do we feel bored?"
Old Man: "Because we are never satisfied with what we have."
Guest: "How to get rid of boredom?"
Old Man: "There is only one way, enjoy the boredom, then we will be free from it."
Guest: "How could you enjoy boredom?"
Old Man: "Ask yourself: why do you never get tired of eating the same rice every day?"
Guest: "Because we eat rice with different side dishes and vegetables, Old Man."
Old Man: "Absolutely, my son, add something new in your routine then boredom will disappear."
Guest: "How to add new things in the routine?"
Old man: "Change the way you do the routine If you usually write while sitting, try to write while squatting or lying down If you usually read in a chair, try to read while walking or jumping.If usually call with the right hand, try by hand Left or with legs if possible. And so on. "
Then the guest went.
A few days later the visitor visited Old Man again.
Guest: "Old man, I've done what you suggested, why am I still bored too?"
Old Man: "Try to do something childish."
Guest: "For example?"
Old Man: "Play the game you love the most in childhood."
Then the guest went.
A few weeks later, the guest came back to the old man's house.
Guest: "Old man, I do what you suggest, and in my spare time I play all the games I love and the miracles happen." Until now I have never been bored again, even when I do Things I used to think boring, why so, old man? "
Smiling Old man said: "Because everything comes from your own mind, my son, boredom comes from your mind that thinks about boredom, I tell you to play like a child so that your mind will be cheerful Now you do not feel bored anymore because of your thoughts about cheerfulness managed to beat your mind about boredom.Everything comes from mind.Thinking bored causes you to get bored, thinking cheerful makes you cheerful.
