Bore out? Don't grab the phone but grab this time as an opportunity!

My client: “I don't know what my next step should be. Currently, my job is easy, and I can do the work in less time than I am being paid for. Actually, I am being bored.”

While boredom can be an unpleasant feeling, it can also be an opportunity to reflect on your interests, values, and goals.
Start by analyzing your type of boredom and identify the underlying causes.
Use your time not to grab the phone but make a list of tasks that give you energy and that cost you energy.
Benchmark this list on your current role and current company you work for.

Analyzing your boredom can also help you develop creativity, resilience, and the ability to adapt to new situations. So rather than distract yourself or ignore your boredom, consider working with it as a valuable tool for personal growth and a way to let your work energize- and intellectually challenge you again.
