How Do You Change Your Routine to Keep Life Interesting?

How Do You Change Your Routine to Keep Life Interesting?

We've talked before about changing up your routine to help spur on creativity and get your brain moving. What changes do you make, though?

Our days are filled with routines. Most of them are pretty good! They help us deal with a large number of complex tasks. If we stick to them too closely, though, we get bored. Fortunately, there are plenty of things we can do to mix things up. As productivity blog Pick the Brain suggests:

"So, next time you find yourself dreading your next morning run, go a different route in the evening. Better yet, find an exercise buddy to come with you as you explore your town on foot! Okay, so maybe you’re not an avid runner. Just gather your family for a random night of board games, movies, and popcorn. Everyone, including yourself, will thank you later."

What kind of things do you do to change up your routine and keep your life interesting? How effective are those things at getting your brain energized? Has anything in particular not helped?
