      In the absence of a responsible adult to put me in my bed,remove all distractions & ignore my protests, I'll have to develop self-discipline

      But it seems I do go to great lengths to avoid being bored including avoiding people so maybe the question isn't such a silly one.

      Seems the secret to being more sociable, sleeping better & being generally more productive is learning to tolerate boredom. Bugger.

      I've always felt that its of paramount importance to be in control of what you do with your own brain as much as possible.

      That that is the key to happiness. It's why I preferred low-paying manual jobs to higher paying ones that occupy your mind when younger.

      I'd rather clean someone's house whilst listening to audiobooks than do an office job that bored me for twice as much money.

      It always seemed odd to me that 'selling yourself' meant selling your body when that's not really where your self is.

      Someone who sells *themselves* is someone who sells the use of their mind to be used in a way they wouldn't use it by choice.

      How do you do that? It sounds like an untapped market. "Pay me 1000$ and you can use my memories for day!"

      Not memories! You have to set your own stuff aside and think about whatever you're paid to think about.
