It’s a weird world, where at the end of the week, people are so drained they simply want to do nothing. Not from physical exhaustion but mentally drained, consumption absorption I call it. Some ‘dated’ studies suggest we read 54,000 words\/da<\/a>y, or see\/hear 100,000 words\/day<\/a>.<\/p>\n I daresay for a typical knowledge worker this is not uncommon.<\/p>\n What this means is the death of boredom. No matter where you are, with an internet connection you have access to entertainment.<\/p>\n But so, recently, thinking about this, I’ve been pursuing boredom. Where I’ve done everything I need to do and there is simply nothing to do and I’m stopping that habit to seek out something just because it’s there.
