Good Morning, Money!

Ep.341 In Praise of Productive Boredom


Listen Later

When was the last time you were truly bored? Not scrolling, not refreshing, not filling the silence—just bored. We’ve trained ourselves to kill every empty second with stimulation. But that empty space you avoid? It’s not a void. It’s a vacuum.

It’s the one place where your brain stops consuming and starts connecting. Where two random thoughts collide into an idea. Where the thing you’ve been trying to force finally shows up—because the noise is gone. The world’s best ideas are born in silence, not in feeds.

Right now, you’re drowning your own brilliance in digital noise. You’re smothering insight with scrolling. Your mind can’t generate when it’s constantly ingesting.

Today’s Move: Run the 10-Minute Void. Put your phone in another room. No music. No podcast. Sit with nothing. The itch will come. Let it. Don’t fill the silence. See what grows there instead.
