Better your memory. Much of what is commonly considered intelligence is merely the ability to recall things well. You will be able to better your power to retain and recall memories in a variety of ways, including utilizing mnemonics and by paying more attention to details.
Read a lot. Just about everything that human beings understand may be found in print, whether in books and magazines or on the net. Become a ravenous reader, and you’ll expose yourself to more thoughts and data. If you’re a slow reader, think about learning speed reading. Think about jotting notes, and perhaps consulting a word or two in the dictionary.
Be more curious. How do some individuals get to understand so much? Great memory skills are only part of the answer: you likewise have to be curious. If you’re satisfied going through life with little or no understanding of things you’re unacquainted with, you won’t learn much and get bored. Make a witting effort to be more curious by prompting yourself that developing your curiosity will broaden your horizons and help to make you less bored.
Curiosity without initiative is like having an automobile that’s out of gasoline — it won’t take you anyplace.
Figure things out on your own. There’s a lot more to curiosity than “book smarts". We may all learn to perform daily tasks at work, home, and school better and more intelligently. If you don’t understand how to accomplish something, resist the urge to ask someone else to do it for you or show you how. In many cases, you will be able to figure it out by yourself, either by trial-and-error or by researching.
Exercise your brain in different ways. Most of us are great at the things we excel in by nature or the activities we do daily. Challenge yourself to learn a fresh skill or to think in a different way, however, and you’ll actually become less bored. Select something you’d like to learn to accomplish (play the guitar, for instance) or a subject you don’t do well in (perhaps mathematics) and center on that thing. At first, you might be uncomfortable and feel even more bored than you did before, but if you study or practice diligently, you will become more confident, and you’ll make fresh connections in your mind.
Discover a hobby that interests you. A lot of individuals increase their intelligence by attempting to get better at something that they're already great at. Not only does it make you look smarter but it can help you to be less bored.
Surround yourself with intelligent individuals. Being around individuals that are smarter than you are able to help you become less bored.
