I fantasize about having enough time to be "bored." I don't mean that as a humblebrag. Just the opposite, exactly. If I was better at life then I'd actually have the time to be "bored."
I put "bored" in quotes because boredom is a very momentary state for me. If I'm "bored" then I can choose to do something I actually want to do: read a book, write something, do something spontaneous, etc.
