Perhaps you were excited about a coming holiday, or enjoyed it because you needn't get up early. However, you may also feel bored as the weeks pass by. This feeling may make you feel upset, but it can actually be good for you.
When you feel bored, your brain is simply trying to find something to make its nerves (神经) active, and scientists call it stimulation (刺激). If it can't find stimulation, for example, by watching television, your mind will look inside. That's when you daydream or you find your mind “wandering”. Scientists have found that daydreaming gives your brain the space to solve problems and work through things that are in your mind. It can improve imagination and creativity.
Sandi Mann, a psychology (心理学) teacher who has written a book called The Science of Boredom, believes that everyone should accept feeling bored. According to her research, “People who are bored are more creative.” Mann also says that accepting boredom means you're less likely to become bored, because the more new and exciting things we experience, the more we want, so it will become harder to accept the boring things.
Learning how to accept and deal with boredom is important, but it can also be hard. Many people find boredom to be an uncomfortable feeling. That's OK—with practice, you can learn to “sit with” that feeling and to use it to find fun and meaningful activities to take part in. There is also a difference between feeling bored from time to time, which we all do, and feeling uninterested in things over a long period, which means there is something wrong with you. If that happens, talk to a trusted person who will be able to help you.
