Today we're going to be talking about why your life is so boring. And we're also going to talk about how to fix it. Let's get real. If you're here, if you're listening to this, chances are you might have felt this subtle, gnawing sense of boredom creeping into your life. Or you might just all out have the sense of boredom living in your house. At this point. It might be because you just wake up and you go to work and you come home and you watch some Netflix shows and you scroll endlessly on your phone and you sleep and you repeat and you do it over and over and over again. And after a while, you're sitting there and you're like, hey, is this it? Is this? Is this all that there is in life? Is life this boring? That I'm just supposed to do the same shit every single day, day in, day out? No, the good news is life is not supposed to be that boring. It's not that boring. The truth is, you are that boring. If your life is that boring, you're the reason why. And the good part about it is that you can fix it. So before you turn this off or throw your phone with me across the room, stick with me. Because if lately your life feels like a never ending loop of me, then you can do something about it. And that's what we're going to be talking about today, is the four different reasons why your life is so boring. And then for each reason your life is so boring, how to actually go and fix it. Okay, let's dive into it. So the first one is that you might have become a passive participant in your own life. I see this with so many people where you just kind of keep doing the same thing over and over again. You're so routine. You're so. It's so many habits that you just kind of become passively living in your own life. Like routine more than anything else has become your ruler. And routines can be very powerful. They give you structure, they can automate decisions, they can help you function. If you have the routine of going to the gym five times a week, that's the good thing. If you have the routine of coming home, you eating some hot Pockets and scrolling on your phone, probably not the best routine to have. But when your routine turns to autopilot and you stop actually living and you Just kind of exist. Like you're just kind of using the air in your house. That's not really where you want to be. So if your life feels too repetitive, it's probably because you've stopped actively participating in your own life. I've been there before. I know what it feels like. It sucks where you're just kind of doing the same thing over and over. And I've woken up at some point in time, been like, is this it? Like, this can't be all of life? And so now you might just be passively watching your life go by. And what you need to do is you need to find something that excites you. Anything. You need to find something that pushes you in some sort of way. You need to find something that feels like it's starting to wake your soul up again. Because right now you might just be coasting and you need to stop. I say a lot of times it's like the way I see most people living their life is if you just got on a boat, a sailboat, and you just kind of pushed off the dock and you're like, well, let's just see where the winds take me. Let's see where the tides take me. And you're just floating from one place to another that you never even really want to be at in the first place, when you don't even realize you can literally start steering the boat yourself. And so what I recommend for you is this week, shake things up a little bit. Like small changes in your life disrupt the monotony of every single day. It could be super simple, like taking a completely different way to work, even if it takes a little bit longer, or ordering something new at your favorite restaurant. I know how it is. I'm one of those people who goes to my favorite restaurant. I order the same damn thing every single time. Because if I don't get the thing that I wanted and I get something that's not as good, I'm so disappointed because I could have just gotten the thing that I know is a home run. Order something new at your go to restaurant or go to a brand new restaurant. Switch up your morning routine. Try something different. Read a new type of book that's about something you've never thought of before. The tiniest shifts in your routine in your days can wake up your brain, because your brain is on such autopilot. And if it wakes your brain up a little bit, it makes your life start to feel a little bit more fresh again. Take a weekend trip to a nearby town. Get an airbnb at a place that's two hours from you. If you don't have money for the Airbnb, drive out to a town that you've never been to before. Try a new restaurant. Find a new local band to listen to. Try a new hiking trail. Just do something different. Get yourself out of your comfort zone. You know, what's something that you have been wanting to do? It's been in the back of your mind that kind of scares you a little bit. Like, it kind of gives you some butterflies. Maybe you'd be like, maybe I want to try skydiving. Maybe you want to go high speed, go kart racing. Maybe you want to try public speaking, something that's pushing you a little bit more. Because if you're not growing, you're dying. And it ain't time for you to die yet. Your life. And one of the reasons why I think life is amazing is because we're supposed to have experiences. And there's so many experiences for you to have in your life, but you've just been doing the same thing over and over again, and chances are you haven't been experiencing anything new recently. And we don't experience anything new. It just, you know, kind of feels like the same thing every single day. So I want you to think about this. What's one thing that you can do this week that's outside of your normal routine? Try it out and just switch out of the same normal routine you've been doing all of the time. So that's the first thing. The second thing is there's a chance that you're living someone else's script. So whose life are you actually living? Have you ever asked yourself this question? Are you living your life or are you living someone else's life? Maybe your life feels boring because it isn't your life. It's what you think society wants of you. It's what you thought your parents wanted of you. Maybe it's your old past self wanted this. You know, your old past self got that degree, and now 10 years later, you're like, I don't like this job. This sucks. It's okay. It's okay to grow out of something. You know, you don't wear the same underwear that you did 10 years ago. Doesn't mean you have to have the same job that you had 10 years ago if you have grown out of it. You know, it's not your job to just keep living the same old life if it feels like you've grown out of it. And so maybe there's Some old past self that thinks you should have done this or some random expectation when someone told you that this was the right path. But deep down, for some reason, even though you were told it feels right, like it was right, it doesn't feel right deep down inside of you. So maybe you've lived your life based off of. Off of what you felt was obligation instead of passion. Based off of what you thought you should do versus what you actually want to do. And I want you to realize this. Boredom is your soul's way of saying, hey, this isn't it. Like your body is always sending you signals. Like if you eat, you know, if you go out for taco Tuesday and you get home and you got a rumbling in your tummy, that's your body's way of saying, hey, yeah, what you ate you probably shouldn't have. And it's time to hit the eject button, right? If you're sitting there in your board and you're just every single day just like, this sucks and you're getting more anxious and depressed of it, that's your soul, your body's way of being like, hey, dude, hey, this isn't it. Do something different already. Your body can't say words to you, but it's saying something to you every time you feel something. And so how do you fix it? Ask yourself, are you living your own life or are you living somebody else's? You know, if you think about this, if money wasn't an issue, how would you spend your days?
