How do you avoid getting burnt out by boredom when attending governance meetings? I've tried to do a bit of this kind of participation (attending my neighborhood's HOA meetings, some local town halls on housing policy etc) and it's extraordinary how inefficiently time seems to be used in these meetings and how much stultifying nonsense one has to wade through to get to the actual actionable and interesting stuff. Even compared to the corporate meetings I'm much more familiar with, and which can be pretty boring themselves, it's like 10x less efficient.

Is that not your experience so far, or have you just found motivation to push through the boredom, or what?
