Why boredom shows up — and how a pause helps
Boredom, discouragement, or disengagement usually isn’t about the task itself. It happens when attention has quietly drifted away from what’s in front of us.
The mind starts looking for something else. Something more interesting. Something later.
And when attention leaves, energy goes with it.
Here’s the simple shift:
Don’t try to push through boredom. Pause instead. When you notice yourself checking out, take a brief pause.
1️⃣ Feel your feet on the ground.
2️⃣ Notice one breath.
3️⃣ Let the body settle before asking it to perform.
Often, boredom dissolves not because the task changes, but because attention returns.
TRY THIS TODAY:
✅ When you feel disengaged, pause for 30–60 seconds before continuing.
✅ Then begin again from here, not from frustration.
📋 Let me know what you notice.

I created The Now Mode out of a personal need to slow down a busy and overactive mind. I share practical tools to pause and return to the NOW.
