Quote of the day "Boredom comes from a boring mind."
Metallica
Have you ever found yourself in a situation that leaves you completely docile and passive, even when you are willing to make a positive move but you can’t just help it? Then know for sure that boredom has set in. Boredom is the inability to accept the moment for what it is , boredom is the failure to accept the situation and utilize it for achieving the purpose of the moment. A lot of times people find themselves in such situations where they seem to have lost the passion and drive to get things going even when the y have their work well spelt out. Boredom is the neediness for something "exciting" to happen. Boredom if not handled wisely can set one backpedaling. It could be difficult finding your interest when you lose it, this could eventually lead to the neglect of that responsibility. Like I always say “neglect will eventually lead to regret”. Learn not neglect responsibility no matter how small they seem (that is discipline right there).boredom is the inability to see the opportunity in the moment, One bad thing about regret is that it doesn’t call back lost opportunity. You can only care about what is of interest to you, and it is only natural to show responsibility in that which you pick interest in. no reasonable person has time enough to waste chasing what will not lead to her improvement as well as her general well being.
Boredom is the refusal of accepting what is, it is craving for what is not at the time it shouldn’t be. Boredom is the acceptance of what is pleasurable over what is pertinently right. Boredom is that situation when the mind and the spirit cannot get the body to cooperate in dealing with the issue at hand. Boredom is the compromise of the mind with the body to reject responsibility and accept weakness. To overcome boredom it takes more than a slash of water to the face. These tips will help you handle and overcome that sinking feeling when next you hemmed in by it.
#1 Know your responsibility: the fastest way to be irresponsible is when you don’t seek to know as well as do you responsibility at each given moment. Time is very important, time is not money it is a bit of your life.
#2 Affirm yourself of your responsibility: be conscious of your responsibility, the purpose you have in mind you will seek to achieve. Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. When you speak something achieving it becomes a priority.
#3 Apply Discipline: boredom is lose of control; it is the failure to see the opportunity before our very eyes. The first and most important discovery for any purposeful person is self discovery; it takes discipline to be in control. There are times when you just loss total control and allow boredom rule you. At such times taking a good cool shower can help, I tell you this works. Just get under the water and you will come out a new you, ready to go.
#4 Choose to be happy: boredom is born of ignorance and unconsciousness. when boredom takes control, one loses all sense of satisfaction. One will never get to lasting happiness and satisfaction when one assumes that happiness is limited to life’s present circumstances. Real and lasting happiness is always experienced within. You choose to laugh to a joke, you can choose to be happy despite the present circumstance.
#5 Be the impact: the surest way to gain satisfaction is by affecting someone positively. You gain an incredible sense of satisfaction when you know that someone’s life has just been made better by what you have done. I have been applying this principle and I have always been motivated by it.
So the next time that sinking feeling sets in apply these tips and seek for someone to impact positively. Boredom cannot be quenched; you can only get out of it.

3 Ways To Turn Anger Into Zeal For Constructive Use
Anger has been interchanged with zeal for a long time. Both words seem alike but vary drastically in demonstration, application and result. Anger, like zeal is emotional and natural, with physical and psychological effects. Anger is a physical response to threat that can be used for constructive purposes. Over the years I have learn t to utilize anger and turn it into zeal. Yes, you can turn anger into zeal and adequately utilize it to overcome difficulties that meet with it. Anger can be passive; it can also get aggressive and really explosive.
This article will help you understand simple steps on how to turn anger into zeal that defeats difficulties. A trapper’s wife was brought to the Alaska wilderness. She was cut down by death. Their child was about two years old. In the course of his trapping, the trapper sometimes left the child for a few hours in the care of their faithful dog. On such absence one afternoon a terrible blizzard came up. The storm was so terrible that he had to take refuge under a hollow tree to save his life. At day break he rushed to the cabin. The door was open. His dog who looked at him from the corner of his eyes was covered with blood. The father’s blood froze in his veins. Just one thing had happened- his dog had turned wolf and killed his child. He reached for the axe, in a moment the same was buried into the skull of his trusted animal. Like a maniac he scanned the scene. In hopeless desperation he uncovered the gruesome remnants of his cabin. Tipper over, the cracked furniture was telling a story of battle that had taken place here an hour before. A faint cry came from under the bed. Again his heart seemed paralyzed. There he found his offspring safe and sound. Just a moment of pause to cuddle his dear on in his arms and he was perplexed whence the blood on his dog came. The answer came a second latter as he found in a remote corner a dead wolf, his huge mouth showing fangs intended for the baby which his faithful dog had saved. Story by Marvin O. Ashton.
The story had a rather sad remorseful end, no thanks to the recompense of anger.
-Anger causes loss in self monitoring; this makes it easy for an angry person to be mistaken. In its strong form it prevents the ability to exert cognitive control.
-Anger triggers adrenalin, shunts blood away from the gut and towards muscles in preparation for physical exertion. It increases heart rate, blood pressure and respiration, which can adversely affect the human system.
-An angry person can loss objectivity, empathy, prudence, thoughtlessness and cause harm. Anger has an extra ability to decrease productivity and increase stress.
Turning anger into zeal: Anger wants it now, it does not facilitate patience in any way however, zeal works with understanding. He that can have patience can have what he will. –Franklin. Asking yourself these 3 simple questions will help you deal effectively with anger and turn it into result achieving zeal.
#1 Why am I angry? People who express anger attribute its arousal to what happened to them, which is true. Sometimes people do lack the capacity to control what happens to them but we all have the ability to decide how we react and respond to events that come upon us. Giving a sincere and realistic answer to the above question will help you understand the root cause of the anger as well as finding practical solution to it. If you can decipher the cause you are half way to dealing with the anger. Seek first to understand the cause and let every other thing take its course.
#2 Am I the instigator of my anger? You can be the cause of your anger. Having a guilty conscience from failure could result to anger. Failure to do or not to have done what is necessary could result to anger. In this case you must take active steps to turn such anger into productive use. If left alone such anger would only result to blame, self pity, stress and depression. Get over the failure by first learning the lesson, and then taking firm decision to avoiding and correcting the cause of failure in the future.
#3 Have I done what is necessary to prevent and abate my anger? Anger has boundless limits, when aroused can grow into something else. A lot of people say that they can’t control their anger, but the truth is that anger can be controlled and directed towards constructive use. Anger is not another personality with a different mind; you can feed your anger to destructive proportions with the thoughts of your mind as well as direct it accordingly. You probably can’t control anger when you consciously believe you can’t, but if you constantly affirm that you are in control of your emotions (anger), you will gradually gain control over it when you constantly affirm it. Do what is necessary to turn destructive anger into result bound zeal, by forgiving yourself or the cause of anger and focusing that passion towards a difficulty that requires the creativity of your mind. Don’t try to bottle up your anger into bottomless depths, if you do it wont remain for long before it explodes. You don’t want to keep struggling with your anger, you want to deal with it one time, and you want to turn it into result achieving zeal.
.
Turn your anger into zeal by applying reasoning and understanding. Zeal is eagerness and ardent interest in pursuing something. It is a passionate devotion and tireless diligence to further and achieve a cause. Nevertheless, anger has an important role to play because it usually comes before zeal, zeal can be initiated from anger, to a degree though. Though anger has functional value to survival, it is still a bad catalyst as well as enhancer when not properly applied. It is very easy to err when angry but the prudent increase determination with zeal.
