“Boredom has to be the most life sapping, mental disease you can be afflicted with.The most accurate definition of boredom I have ever heard is this - Boredom is the absence of a creative idea. But there is a simple cure - begin to think immediately of a better way to do something. The creative juices are within you but you must turn on the tap. Those who are bored are not living; they are dying. When their heart stops beating, it will be a mere formality. The best way to do anything has never been thought of. Get on a creative improvement kick and jar others mentally into the same activity.” ThinkingWayHeartIdeasTurnsSimpleCreativeHeardDyingActivityDiseaseMereDefinitionsAbsenceImprovementBest WayCuresBoredKicksBoredomAccurateWithin YouJuiceTurn-onBetter WaysJarsCreative IdeasFormalityCreative Juices Author:Bob Proctor

So I decided to forget and throw myself into the future.” ThinkingFirstsKindMemoriesForgetDiseaseDecidedIllnessAbsenceCurseRelatedCollectivesPeculiarFugitiveCollective Memory Author:Gilles Peress
