How do you change your thoughts that life feels repetitive?!
Question: How do you change your thoughts that life feels repetitive.?
Sometimes I get depressed that life seems to consist of "Wake up, eat, hygiene, school, work, go home, relax, eat, hygiene, bed"Health Question & Answer
Answers:
I hate that feeling, it seems like only living one day for your entire life and watching time slip by as your stuck in the same groove. Right now you have to deal with school and a job thats on a set schedule so theirs not much you can do to work around that until you finish school and possibly get a job thats more flexible.
You need to do stuff different (even if its only a little) then you are now to experience some new things and mix it up a bit. You can get the most out of your time when you are relaxing or on the weekends. Try doing something that you want to do and dont feel obligated to instead of playing on the internet / watching tv all night. You need something to look forward to rather then killing time to do the same things you dont like over again.Health Question & Answer

Today that is your routine - sounds like a pretty good one to me. If you want more, then pursue it.
However, what if your routine was:
"wake up, find something to eat if you're lucky, go to school if you're lucky, go work at a back breaking job in the fields or a dirty factory for pennies, go home where you have 10 brothers and sisters all hungry and cold, no relaxing, no hygiene to speak of cuz you have very little water, and bed is a blanket on the floor."
Sounds rough.? So many people live under these and worse conditions every day. When life seems tough to me, I just remember to put my life into perspective... by most of the world's standards, you and I live like queens.Health Question & Answer

You change your thoughts which is the beginning of every action. What you have is called "routine". That's how it is for most people.
And it will continue to be that way even when you get older. You wake up, go to work, come home, eat, relax, hygiene, and bed. It can feel repetitive and very boring. What you need to do is find something you really like to do. Or get interested in having some hobbies that do not involve anything you are familiar with.
Go outside, watch people. Think of what they may be thinking as they pass by. The world around you can be a very interesting place if you really reflect on things. Study the sky at night and think how big the universe really is. Feel the world around you. Feel the cold without running in to get warm right away. Feel the heat and the coolness of spring. The beauty of Autumn with all the beautiful colors.
Get social. Like people. They will react back by liking you. Not the school routine(there's that word again) you are used to. Meet new people and ask deep questions about what life really means. Your life was meant to be enjoyed too. Not just the regular everyday routine that everybody has. Use your extra time well. Don't worry. Don't be afraid. Just LIVE!!Health Question & Answer

Routines help us bring order into our lives, so in that sense, it's good. And routine is part of life. But boredom and depression aren't in the routine, they're in the way you live your life as you go through your daily routine and in where you see your life going. Try to become involved and attentive to the moment as you do your routine. You can break it up with little events and adventures that take you into other mind-sets, e.g. friends, outings, reading, etc. And set some goals for yourself that excite you, so that everything that you go through each day points toward something interesting or meaningful.
Ultimately, life isn't about distracting yourself or entertaining yourself. It's about finding meaning in little things that you do.Health Question & Answer

When I feel that way I try to change things up so it doesn't feel so repetitive. Drive a different way to work or school. Do something different when you relax. Try a different kind of meal, something you haven't had before. Do some pampering routine before bed time. Things like that.Health Question & Answer
