Boredom

[The video] made me reflect on how we perceive time and how we choose to spend it. It’s so easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of life and feel like we need to constantly be on the go, but maybe the opposite is true. Perhaps, since our time is limited, we should slow down and simplify.

The idea of stripping away unnecessary [expenditure] of time and [preserving] what we truly want and need is a powerful concept. It’s important to determine what we believe is a valuable use of our time.

Life is bigger than you realize. Something about the way you’ve structured your days doesn’t honor the limitless potential and the countless possibilities that are stretched out before you. Something about your anxiety has caused you to build things that feel safe and restrictive. Something about your fears has led you to hide inside predictable shapes, to duck into dark corners, to retreat from open-ended questions.

I found this deep down in the comments section of somewhere, a long time ago.

Good writing skill cultivates a discipline of thinking. Thoughts cease to be random and chaotic. They gradually become systematic and structured instead.

Having journaled for years, I’m tempted to agree. Writing thoughts out allow opportunities for dissection and I end up knowing more about myself, which is helpful in arenas such as career, relationships etc.
