He says that if you cant enjoy the boredom, then just accept it. Observe the feeling of boredom inside you, he says. The ego feeds of boredom, so scare it off by observing the feeling. What does it all mean? I still feel bored  |
Now you are not bored.
Here is your contact in the now.
I am bored, I seek something to stimulate me, I will post on Stevepavlina.com and someone will respond to my request of boredom.
And here we are as you so require.

Boredom is a word to describe how your ego hates being in the now.
You can't simply observe now because you want to feel something via ego to take you away from the now and project yourself into a future that doesn't exist so you can find something that makes the now more acceptable to your ego.
