I need Things to do in life?

Question

My life has got pretty dull latley, work is my only major commitment, so I've got plenty of spare time. My life got alot shittier once school finished, didn't get to see my friends nearly as much and work is no where near as fun as school was.
I lift weights and keep fit but I feel the need to fill in the rest of the time I've got with something more worth while. The cycle of computer/television/video games is getting boring.

I came to this realisation when I had a week off work, I realised I had nothing left, nothing to do, no goals to achieve, no reason to get out of bed. Kinda sad when I realised other than work I havn't got much.

So to my fellow sherdoggers, list all your hobbies and passions, and what you do in your spare time. I need some ideas and need to get out of the house more!

Answer 1

Without knowing you it is difficult to say what you may like.

I volunteer alot. You may want to look into volunteer opportunities in your town. You can spend time helping others. This will keep you from getting bored and is rewarding.

I also journal. Spend time each day writing something.

I read. Go to the library and look around. You will probably find something to interest you.

Walk around your neighborhood or go to a park. You will probably find lonely people who just want to talk.

Answer 2

Everybody has skills, passions, hobbies, things they do well, and or things they do less well. And though sorting them out and doing something meaningfull with them might appear problematic at first, it is not beyond your or anybody else's ability to find this sweet spot in life.

There is a Canadian medical ,Dr. Ken Evoy doctor who pondered the same a few years ago, and came up with a very simple solution that you can find at the link below.

I think you'll find it much more than a breath of fresh air. He explains it much better than I ever could.

Answer 3

Last year, I finished making a huge dollhouse for my niece which everyone loves and now dollhouses and furniture have become my obsession.

I love to make things that are one of a kind. It all started because I started collecting dolls. Its very cathartic to open the box, take the doll out and put it into my creation. Its almost like my world is chaos, but I can make this perfect microcosm for a child to lose themselves in.

You need a Girlfriend or Boyfriend. You are going to let life pass you by.
