1. Never keep doing the same task for too long.
2. Try to take breaks every half an hour. Get up and walk or do some stretching exercises.
3. Try to alternate between two boring tasks. This will reduce the boredom in both tasks by 50%.
4. If you have someone else with you who is doing the same job, try exchanging jobs with the person.
5. Talk about your job to a sympathetic listener who can give you encouragement.
6. Reward yourself once you have done a job well.
7. If you have an uninteresting job left to do, write it down and pin it somewhere in your work station so that you can see it and get constantly reminded about it till you do it.
8. Try to make your work environment more attractive by pinning up some motivating words or some pleasant wall posters, preferably something that can make you smile.
9. If you are allowed to, try playing some soft music while you work.
10. Keep a small potted plant near your work table.
11. Take time to relax, just sit back and close your eyes and hum a favorite tune for a minute or two. But do not fall asleep!
In addition, if you have finished doing a job you have reason to reward yourself. It can be something like treating yourself to a good dinner in a favorite restaurant or it could be a chocolate bar!
