Propelled: How Boredom, Frustration, and Anticipation Lead Us to the Good Life
Elpidorou
In Propelled, Andreas Elpidorou makes a lively case for the value of discontent and illustrates how boredom, frustration, and anticipation are good for us. Weaving together stories from disciplines as wide-ranging as classical literature and video games, Elpidorou shows that these psychological states illuminate our desires and expectations and inform us when we find ourselves stuck in unpleasant and unfulfilling situations. Boredom, frustration, and anticipation aren't obstacles to our goals--they are our guides, propelling us into lives that are truly our own.
