Behind a window bad weather delayed the arrival of spring, tired of working routine, nothing filled weekend? In such cases, we usually say that we are "boring." While we chat "at hand" is at least 5 simple ways to fight the boredom and turn an otherwise empty time in useful for us life span.

Sport: running, jogging, even a simple workout like "waving his arms and legs" will help you not only strengthen the body but also "clean up" the head from unnecessary thoughts and occupy yourself. In addition, your body (especially if you have a sedentary job) will only be grateful for this spontaneous physical activity. How often do we fill the boredom of watching the show on your computer or transfer strange "about the nature of" on TV, although they could devote those minutes 20-40-60 movement and strengthen their muscles and heart. At least, go for a walk: oxygen and moderate physical activity at times useful than watching the next "fashion" series.

Hobby: hobby application classes, where you have to use not only the imagination, but also to work hard physically - a great recipe for boredom. Learn to cook, master crafts, draw pictures, do some fancy stucco, decoration, applique: it not only develops fine motor skills, but also teaches concentrate, be focused and at the same time - to disconnect from the constant thoughts of work or fear that you "just sit back", although could do "something important". In addition, a hobby - not only emotional outlet, but also an opportunity to discover a new face, which eventually may become your main activity.

Reading: there is no better "medicine" from boredom than interesting book. Boring books, by the way, the same does not happen: you just have to find a genre and format of books that you like - and then the reading will be the most affordable and fun way to fight the boredom.

Alternation of affairs: Remember the rule that "a change of labor have rest." Working routine and work on a long "boring" tasks can be diluted by alternating small and large tasks "tomato planning "and the substitution of different forms of activity (from the drafting of the documents - to meetings with partners from the business correspondence - to prepare presentations from a blog - to phone calls, etc.) Do not focus on one task, and alternate them, so that your work does not seem to you "Boredom death." And if does not work, maybe we should just change jobs?

Sleep: You do not know what to do - then sleep. Sleep length of 20-30 minutes, restores the body is not worse than a long aimless "wallow" in bed (and certainly much more useful than blindly "stare" at the TV).
