Boredom has to be the most life sapping, mental disease you can be afflicted with.The most accurate definition of boredom I have ever heard is this - Boredom is the absence of a creative idea. But there is a simple cure - begin to think immediately of a better way to do something. The creative juices are within you but you must turn on the tap.

Get on a creative improvement kick and jar others mentally into the same activity.

Why not a hundred million and peace upon the earth? You and I who agree together, it is we who have to answer that question.
