Back not too long ago I used to think negative emotions/emotions where you didn't feel the best were a bad thing that we should strive to avoid but only recently have I realised how foolish that was.
Let me explain.
For example boredom: everything around you in your environment is designed to keep you hyper-stimulated constantly and boredom is a rare thing these days.
It really only happens rarely, like in the rare case that whenever you're out on a road trip and your phone dies or whatever.
Those are the only times that, for most people, it actually hits them and they get hit with the feeling of boredom.
But actually it's a good thing because you see all the greatest ideas, all the most brilliant things, were made by people who had a lot of boredom of course.
They came up with these brilliant ideas for making the iPhone, things of that nature, because they allowed themselves to get bored.
It's something that I do daily.
I like to just stare at the wall and just think, reflect, plan out ideas, for 30 minutes.
It's a really brilliant thing and I just want to say that too many people try to avoid it.
Too many people, as soon as they are just waiting for the food to come out of a restaurant, they'll just go straight to their phone.
I'm not gonna lie, sometimes I do that as well.
I am not perfect with this but sometimes it can be really good for you, valuable, to get by that boredom and to embrace it.
You'll get your best ideas and it's good for your nervous system too whenever you're not hyper-stimulating it all the time and always being in a mode where you need to reply to message and etc.
It's good to shut off from that every now and then.
