Suggestions Regarding How To Survive A Lengthy Daily Commute

By Bill Duggen


Great distances from home to work often lead to one stressful obligation - a long commute. The longer commuting hours you would have to endure only means that your destination is farther away. This is a daily routine that one must endure if he or she is really looking to make money or make a living.

A common problem that is faced by people undergoing long commutes every day is the deprivation of sleep or the irregular sleeping hours. While at work, you will need to spend at least 8 hours a day and have the rest of your hours to your family and of course for the long commute which no longer leave you with enough time for sleep.

This is something that one will have to endure unless he or she can find a job that is closer to home or own a vehicle that can break the speed limit. The best thing that you can do in such a situation is to rest your body and body while also trying to keep everything active. So how do you survive a long commute?

One thing that people commonly do in order to buy time when riding a bus home or to work is to read a journal or a book. Reading a book will further enhance your knowledge and will draw your attention away from the time. When you read a book, you'll be surprised you're already at your destination as you finish a few pages.

Another good way for you to buy time whenever taking long commutes is to do the common thing that kids do - play games over their phone or gadget. While many may not be very fund of games over devices, it can be very much helpful in keeping your thoughts distracted and thus keeping you less stressed. To keep your gaming more fun and enjoyable, download games or apps related to sports or hobbies that you love to do such as basketball, drawing, serving as a waiter and others.

Do you want to earn a bit of cash while you travel from home to work and vice versa? One way to earn good money even in commute is to write an article or a personal blog. Since your body is not doing any much activities during traveling, the mind can become very keen. Writing articles would then be beneficial for your as an outlet of your thoughts. Topics you can write about may cover a lot of things like experience in doing long commutes, how to make money, what presents to buy for your wife in your anniversary, etc. Writing is not only a great way to do something worth while but it also opens doors to profits.

Lastly, you can also socialize while you are taking that long bus ride. Socializing with your fellow passengers or the person beside you is yet the most basic way to deal with boredom in long commutes. I know this would require skill as well as enough confidence however it is actually easier than it would sound. All you need is a bit of confidence to initiate a conversation. You need to think of an interesting subject as well as a topic that both of you passengers can relate from. And again before you talk to that person beside you, check out his or her mood if he or she is in the mood for a talk.
