The key to avoiding "boredom" in daily life is to avoid getting bored. If you are continually growing and taking new ground, it is hard to feel like life is routine. Now, don't get me wrong. I like my routines. I am a creature of habit. But, I am curious; I'm an avid learner and enjoy taking on new challenges. I hardly ever feel bored. There is always a book to read, skill to develop, language or culture to understand, and of course, there are people.
