How to cure a boring lifestyle

How to cure a boring lifestyle; my life is as boring as shit. I live a triangular life of work – home­- church, and nobody can beat that. I have had the same schedule for years. Growing up I always wanted to stay home and see a movie while my friends would go out to have fun. I didn’t see reasons in stepping out of the house, maybe because I am too lazy to shower and step out. Well recently, am trying to make some changes in my lifestyle. I did some research on how to spice up my boring lifestyle and I thought to share my findings with you.

First, here is the hard truth (tough love); get out of your damn comfort zone already! You have a boring lifestyle because you’re boring. Stop being afraid of everything, variety is good. It’s good to deviate from the normal and do things that make you poop your pants a little bit. Nothing risked, nothing gained, right? Besides, you’re too young to be living a boring lifestyle. The last thing you want to feel when you’re older, besides arthritis, is regret.

Create time for your friends in your schedule; plan things with friends in advance so you have something to look forward to during the weekend. I always suck at this because, like everyone else, I pretend that I’m busy 24/7 and then when Friday or Saturday night rolls around, I’m like,

“Wait, I guess I’m wide open. Will someone hang out with me?!”

Of course, by then it’s too late! Everyone else planned ahead and is having an awesome time at the poolside or at a party while am at home doing the same thing I have always done for the past 20 year; stay home and see movies like the stupid cliché I was born to be. It’s always best to line up social activities if for the very least to avoid living out this sad scenario.

Do not resort to drinking; it won’t turn your boring lifestyle to be exciting unless you are still a college kid. Instead of drinking, plan a weekend trip. Gather your friends together, propose a trip and actually follow through with it. Trust me, it will be worth it.  Weekend trips are rarely a bust unless someone brings along their annoying significant other. Don’t let them do that. Speaking of relationships, you should get a boyfriend or a girlfriend, silly! What’ve you been doing all of this time being single and alone?!! Obviously your life’s boring. You have no one to share it with. You can even join a dating site.

Buy a new book and let yourself get lost in it. Lately, I’ve become paranoid that getting older will turn me into a moron, so I’ve been reading a new book once a week to keep the wheels turning. It doesn’t have to be a super smart book; you can even visit www.talks.friendite.com daily to read awesome posts.

Start exercising; If you’re going to be bored, you might as well be bored and in shape. Also, you can start up fun projects. Few weeks back, I discovered my inner Victoria Becham; I made some dresses myself though I got lazy at some point and stopped  but am going to be more serious about it this time.

Finally and most importantly, drop your laptop in the bathtub, disconnect your electricity supply and force yourself to go outside. It’s where most exciting things happen, or so I’ve heard.
