By Let’s be honest, being lazy can be relaxing and comfortable, but being bored is like experiencing a slow and painful death. It’s time to take full control of our lives. Do not let this World pass you by because you feel like you have nothing to do. There are so many things to do, both outside, and in the comfort of your home.
Here are some things that you can do to help pass time, keep your brain working, and overall be free and live.
7. MAKE YOUR BED
Start off your day with something productive as making a bed. This is the easiest thing you can do; therefore it should be the first thing you do. If you feel like you can’t get out the bed, when you get up to go to the bathroom, and you come back to your room, make your bed, and go to another part of your home. Once your bed is made, and your room looks neat you won’t want to mess it up, plus coming home to a clean room will bring you peace.
6. PUT TOGETHER A PUZZLE
This is the old school brain game. Although it can get frustrating, it keeps your mind busy, and takes your mind off all of the other craziness that may be going on around you. If you don’t want to go hardcore and do a thousand piece puzzle, do a five-hundred piece puzzle. Turn on the television, or play some music while you put together your puzzle, and stay in your comfy clothes! It’s all about relaxing, and keeping your mind busy on something positive.
5. CLEAN OUT YOUR CLOSET
Spring may be coming to a close, but its never a bad time to get those clothes out of your closet that you haven’t worn since you were in high school. If you haven’t worn it in the last year, donate it! You’ll feel more organized, and the bonus is, you’ll have space for new clothes!
4. READ A BOOK
If you haven’t already found a book, go to your local book store, and find something by your favorite author, then go to the park, or your back yard and read. If you need a recommendation, there are plenty suggestions here.
3. TRY A NEW RESTUARANT
Don’t stick to what you know, try something different. Try a new restaurant or if you have a favorite restaurant, try a new dish. Call your girlfriends, and make a girls day out of it. Your girlfriends should also be your network of positive energy. So there’s no need to worry about all of the things that aren’t going the best in your life. Live in the moment and enjoy the food, girl talk and good drinks!
2. DO YOUR MAEUP
You think the little things don’t make a difference? It’s all in the little things! You may not feel like actually putting on a full face of makeup, but do it anyway! Go for a glamourous look or keep it chic and natural. Having your face done will make you feel brand new. I promise as soon as you finish putting the mascara on your lashes, you’ll be ready to get out the house and do something.
1. TRY A DIY PROJECT
Do you have something old that you can refurbish? Take your time, and turn it into a one of a kind piece. It could be anything from a pair of shorts to a night stand you want to make stand out. There are so many projects on Pinterest that you can take advantage of you should never get bored. Depending on the project you can call your girlfriends over, or make your boo help you. Who wouldn’t love to hang out while bringing something that has depreciated into a masterpiece of value.
It is so easy to let laziness, depression or just “I Ain’t Gonna Do It” set in, but you have to put yourself together and enjoy everyday. Things may not always go your way, but remember you have the authority to make everyday count. Go out and rediscover what fun really is!
