Why Boredom Is Good for the Brain

How can digital marketers stay relevant within the noisiest media culture in history? By disconnecting from the digital world entirely, says Blake Snow.
Blake, author of Log Off, is an expert on the many ways that offline rest benefits our ability to process experiences, form new ideas, solve problems creatively, and absorb new information. Stepping back periodically, Blake says, is the key to building the stamina required to stay visible in a content-saturated culture where “you’re only as good as your last post.”
In this special one-on-one interview with Randy, Blake breaks down the process of stepping back and broadening your perspective on content marketing. Disconnecting may seem counterintuitive in a fast-moving digital world, but as Log Off proves, it’s the key to longevity for every marketer.

  • How periods of boredom help us process ideas and nurture our creativity.
