Speaker 1: this one sounds brutal, but seriously, boredom is a superpower.
Speaker 1: When you're bored, your brain actually starts to get creative

Speaker 1: reach for your phone, try doing something offline. Read a book,
Speaker 1: go for walk doodle in a notebook. You might be
Speaker 1: surprised at what you come up with. Two. Schedule your
Speaker 1: screen time. Think of your phone like that toxic friend
Speaker 1: who always drains your energy. Limit your time on social
Speaker 1: media and games. Set specific times when you'll check your
Speaker 1: phone and stick to it like your life depends on it, which,
Speaker 1: let's be honest, sometimes it feels like Three. Find your flow.
Speaker 1: Ever get lost in a project and forget everything else.
Speaker 1: That's called flow state, a state of pure focus and immersion.
Speaker 1: To tap into flow, find activities that genuinely excite you
Speaker 1: and challenge your brain. Four break it down. Overwhelmed by
Speaker 1: a big task, split it into smaller, more manageable chunks.
Speaker 1: It's like conquering a giant boss battle in a video game,
Speaker 1: one step at a time. Five. Celebrate the small wins.
Speaker 1: Don't wait for the grand finale to celebrate your accomplishments.
Speaker 1: Every little victory deserves a high five. Acknowledge your progress
Speaker 1: and keep that momentum going. Let me tell you about
