“Perhaps the world’s second- worst crime is boredom; the first is being a bore”

                         -Sir Cecil Beaton 

 Boredom usually occurs when there is little interest or no interest in the task we are performing. It is a signal that we’re not meaningfully engaged with the world. Every morning, I motivate myself by flicking through autobiographies of successful people. These books inspire me to study for the first half of the day. But after that, I lose my interest. I get bored of studying very easily, probably much more than my friend. When I start studying, I usually get distracted, consequently searching for my phone and I’ll end up scrolling Instagram and You tube. When one is bored, their boredom can be seen precisely through their work. A person is not knowledgeable about the situation that they are in when they are bored. For instance, when I relish my work, I’ll endeavor my best and it will yield me appreciable results. But when I’m bored with my work, I cannot be maximal in working and it won’t result good things. Almost all students start getting bored right after holding a book or even the minute they decide to study. But don’t be worried!. Studying gives you pleasure when you convince yourself that it’s fun and when you understand that it will be beneficial for you more than anything else.  

“A finished person is a boring person."

                                                      - Anna Quindlen 

Even though your knowledge is plentiful, it is nothing compared to the existing knowledge in the world .Here are some tips for studying, that will prevent you from getting bored :- 

1) Studying on a table: Studying on a bed will give a totally relaxing feel and you’ll end up falling asleep without controlling yourself. In order to circumvent that, you should sit in a relaxing position and keep your posture straight. Keep your studying material at a fair distance away from your eyes.

 2) Study with a Partner: Finding a study partner is a substantial way to exchange your thoughts and views with the other person which is very beneficial in academics. For sure, you will end up with a meaningful experience.

 3) Break your huge task into simpler parts: Every task, no matter how difficult it is, can be broken down into smaller and more convenient parts. Adopting this approach gives you a small reward by actually accomplishing something, no matter how small it is. 

4) Develop interest in studies: Try to develop a little amount of interest in studies day by day. Don’t think that you are forced to study ; think of it as a useful way of spending time. You can convince yourself by saying that you want to study because you really want to and not because you have to.

 5) Don’t stress yourself: To be precise, Health is more important than studies. If you are healthy, you can achieve enormous things in life. Stressing yourself can rapidly give you the feeling of boredom and sickness. So, try to take rests in between study times.
