Boredom can take on many forms. You could be on a long ride home or getting a haircut. You might have arrived for class too early or you’re waiting for your food to be delivered.
We often spend too much time doing nothing. While waiting in line to get on the train, stuck in a traffic jam, waiting for a friend in a coffee shop, or falling in line. Killing time can be a bit of a challenge, and wasting our precious hours is even worse. You might find yourself restless, thinking of all the other things you could be doing instead of sitting there, trying hard to beat boredom.
There are so many ways that you can be bored, but how do you overcome it? We share with you four ways to beat boredom. Read on and let us know how you beat boredom too by tweeting us your answer choosing from the list below and using the hashtag #neverbebored.
You might just win a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 when you share your answer!
