On the other hand, success and a sense of "undefeatability", breed in you the urge to constantly show off, keep proving, get followers, maintain your position at the great heights, all of which take efforts, activities, events-generating, therefore, ward off boredom! Surrender to the theory of fallibility, defeatism, and you yield to boredom!But then you may not recognise boredom, very often! In 'VishadaYoga' Arjuna was actually a bored person with a confused mind, he wanted to give up, until the motive for finding success through sense of duty, and through the wisdom of potential for infallibility, he was rescued from prospects of boredom, though he was told not think of results (because through sense of infallibility, results were taken for granted!)! Success and Infallibility are certain, consistent with efforts: the spin-offs, what happens after success, after you prove time and again the infallibility of efforts, are perhaps uncertain, rather inconsistent, when the 'samabhava' is missing! That also is essence of Divinity: therefore, 'thou divine art that'! (When in the cycle of Yuga's, the first Yuga comes back, after the KaliYuga, everything will be perfect visibly, even the spin-offs and results after success, will be consistent, certain!)

The two essential ingredients for life to tick are hope and fear... were there to be no hope nor fear, there would be no life worth living.... and both hope and fear can only be there when there is uncertainty..... uncertainty needs inconsistency to sustain itself.... fallibility being the result of inconsistencies, is thus more than a tool to conquer boredom, it is in fact an essential element to make life what it is.
Superb, insightful question... thank you!!
