Thursday, March 8, 2018 - Motivational Quotes for the Day! Good Morning Everyone!
Today is: "No Boredom Day!"
"You have choices. Don't waste another day, spice it up today and get out of that boredom frame of mind. There are so many things to do and see; just look up, down, and all around." — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
The Quote in the Picture Today Reads: "I would rather die of passion then of boredom" — Vincent van Gogh
"Life is never boring, but some people choose to be bored." — Wayne Dyer
"The two enemies of human happiness are pain and boredom." — Arthur Schopenhauer
"Doing anything when you're bored is very very boring. Anyway, doing nothing is the point of being bored. The pleasure of being bored ismooning about and doing nothing." — Aidan Chambers
"Boredom is not an end-product, is comparatively rather an early stage in life and art. You've got to go by or past or through boredom, as through a filter, before the clear product emerges." — F Scott Fitzgerald
"Only those who want everything done for them are bored." — Billy Graham
"The cure for boredom is curiosity. There is no cure for curiosity." — Dorothy Parker

I love the van Gogh quote. I hear students say they are bored all the time. That is very unfortunate. I was never bored as long as I could daydream! COL Mikel J. Burroughs

We grew up in a time when we played outdoors! We didn't have electronics to keep us motivated or entertained. We used imagination to keep us on the very edge of not getting in trouble because all heck would break out if we stepped over those boundaries!:)

So true! I grew up in the 60s and 70s and my mother would kick us out of the house in the morning, we’d have lunch at somebody’s house, but we had to call home and let mom know, and then when the streetlights came on and my father stepped outside the door and gave one of his loud two finger in the mouth whistle’s I knew it was time to come home!

I can't say I have been bored much in several years. I have something going on all the time. Even in my downtime something is going on... Morning Col.

So very true COL Burroughs! Almost everyone has two full time jobs going at once, one paid and one not paid! But we all find the time to keep up with everything.

I have so many projects lined up and every time I turn around I’m looking to add another one onto it. But I love to stay busy whether it’s my real job, until I retire which is coming up soon, or the work I do to help other veterans or just puttering in my workshop. I don’t know what it’s like to sit still and do nothing.
