Every once in a while, we all get bored. Whether it’s with our routine or just one of those days where we don’t know what to do, boredom strikes.

Color
Take out the crayons and coloring books and color. You can also grab some chalk and head outside for some sidewalk art. Either way, coloring allows us to focus our attention on one purpose while stress and boredom drift away.

Update your rèsumè
If you’re going to be bored, you might as well make good use of the time. Besides, keeping your rèsumè updated may help you realize why you’re bored. Put some polish on it and have it ready in case you’re inspired to apply for that promotion.

Explore
Just getting out of the house often clears the cobwebs and allows boredom to fade. Don’t give it a chance. Stimulate your brain by exploring the worlds inside museums or get fresh air at the park. Hike the local trails or set out on an adventure.

Clean something
Whether it’s a closet, a cabinet, the trunk of the car, or an entire room, cleaning almost always ends with a moment of satisfaction.
