Hello there,
Boredom can be a huge motivator to look for distractions. We have a VERY hard time living with our own thoughts. An exercise I often recommend is to sit in quiet contemplation to listen to one's own thoughts. Most cannot deal with it and seek distractions (like you pointed out).
In fact, my second book is entirely about this. In Vol 2 - Your Duality Within: A Study of Your Two Distinct and Opposing Internal Voices I get the reader in touch with the two voices within (The primitive animal mind and the rational intelligent consciousness) to be able to understand their thoughts and navigate their inner dialogue.
I believe this will be a big source of consternation fo many in isolation, who are not used to living with their own thoughts for too long without distractions and could potentially lead to many mental afflictions and illnesses, or make underlying ones worse.
This is why, to help with the Pandemic, I have made the second book of the series Stoicism for a Better Life free for the next four days (Amazon only lets me do this for four days at a time, and again only once every month). So please grab a copy and pass on the information to as many people as you can, especially those who you coach with addiction. I want to get this book into as many peoples' hands as possible, so as to help as many people as possible.
Thank you
Anderson
Hello there,
You hit the nail on the head. This is absolutely right and this is a topic I cover extensively in my teachings. We have a VERY hard time living with our own thoughts.
