22 Bored Quotes
Feeling Bored? It’s probably due to monotony (yesterday the same as today?), being incapacitated, or slipping into the habit of being sedentary. If you don’t move, your mind can atrophy as well the body. Those sparky ideas you used to have, may begin to fade. So try getting up and going for a run or a walk! Or if you can’t do that – imagine yourself in new surroundings. Take a flight of fancy and walk on the beaches of your imagination! My granny lived to almost 100 and had a daily walk every day of her life and would exercise her imagination by reading books. She used to say ‘Life is boring, only to boring people’. How do we snap out of being bored? Try reading these Bored Quotes and then take your mind (or preferably your body!) for a long walk. And fill those lungs with some fresh air for good measure (deep breaths!). Life gets more interesting when we shake things up a little 🙂
