When you're bored play your guitar. But remember, perfect practice makes perfect. Practice doesn't make perfect, if you are practicing in the wrong way. 😉
There's always room for improvement. 😀

Try a few of the finger positions. Not all. Choose at random, maybe bar 4, bar 12, bar 8 etc. Just a few new finger positions, and even not necessarily chords.
You will hear some you like, some that you think abhorrent.
Choose them at will, as you like. Mix them with what you already know - AND - soon you will be creating new pieces of your own, unlike the ones you have been doing. Give it a go. 😉
