Boredom takes a heavy toll on our time and the amount of effort we apply in our lives. Without clear cut goals or aspirations, without something to look forward to we can spend a lot of time and effort on low level priorities.

Taking the time to set goals that are feeling based will help us move into a space where we can  prioritise  our values and focus on achieving our goals and desired outcomes.

Without something to look forward to it is easy to become sidetracked, loose our motivation and slip into a state of boredom – a suspended animation. We go throughout he motions without creating any positive change in our lives. There wis no reason to wake up in the morning, no reason to excel at school or work. We have no desire to anything but party or waste our effort on associated with other unmotivated people.

Without the eyes to see boredom could be confused with the feelings of depression and anxiety and mistreated.

Most people with depressed or anxious behaviours tend not to have feeling centred goals. They may be motivated by money, greed, prestige  or outdoing the neighbours. A hollow, swallow feeling consumes them inwardly, they can appear successful, yet within they are gutted wreck of confused emotions.

When we focus on what makes us feel good now in a real and constructive we find the emotional and mental strength to aspire towards our goal. when we are chasing material  success it can become unfulfilling and a drudgery, leading to unsatisfying relationships and a loss of quality of life.

In Kissing the Black Dog i cover ways to rekindle our interest in life and improve the quality of our physical body. When these two are in unison we can begin to move towards the feelings we crave to take us to that place where we can Be, Do and Have the things that bring forth our inspiration.
