It can be easy to take the whole "being useful" teachings to an extreme and essentially become a work-a-holic. There are benefits to boredom, including opening ourselves us to creativity and allowing us time to stop and reflect on our lives. Reflection is vital to our spiritual health!

(Referencias: Arcana Coelestia 3661, 3762, Genesis 27:42, 28:1, 29:1)

3661. 'And commanded him, and said to him' means reflection and consequent perception. This is clear from the meaning of 'commanding' in historical parts of the Word as reflecting, and from the meaning of 'saying' as perceiving, dealt with in 1791, 1815, 1819, 1822, 1898, 1919, 2080, 2619, 2862. Reflection is a mental looking at the disposition and nature of a thing, and from that reflection comes perception.
