Boredom. I’ve never understood it!
I often joke that I pray daily to be ‘bored’ so I can fit in all the exciting things I want to do with my life!
However, after many years of mentoring I believe I have a deeper understanding of how this feeling comes about and here are a few suggestions to overcome it! Bear in mind the following questions are not guaranteed to banish it overnight but they are a starting point to get to know yourself and your desires so that you can eliminate the weeds of boredom and plant seeds of possibility and fulfilment.

Ask yourself these questions.
What brings me Joy?
Apply or diffuse a blend of doTERRA Wild Orange Essential Oil and doTERRA Frankincense Essential to activate your ‘joyful truth’ and brainstorm your answers into your Joy Olly.
What am I passionate about?
Apply or diffuse doTERRA Passion Essential Oil Blend to ignite playfulness, passion and spontaneity and brainstorm your answers into your Passion Olly.
What is my Purpose?
Apply or diffuse a blend of doTERRA Ginger Essential Oil and doTERRA Litsea Essential Oil to empower you to stop playing small and brainstorm your answers into your Purpose Olly.
Hopefully this will give you some clarity about what lights you up and you will see gaps where perhaps you need upskilling or you will identify passions that are not being pursued and you will feel empowered to ‘stop playing small’ and use your gifts to light up not only your own world but the world of many others!
