It seems all I do nowadays is work, be grumpy or read. Usually if I’m too grumpy to do anything I just sleep early, but I can’t physically sleep enough for my mood these days.
Your methods will probably not work for me, but I think this might get my head working on ideas.
Besides that, I bet others will find some use for your ideas too.
Pick a fitness goal you want to accomplish. I like lifting the heaviest weights I can, so I go to the gym 3x a week. My partner, who has never had an affinity for fitness, has found yoga brings them a lot of back pain relief and they enjoy the other associated benefits (flexibility, mindfulness).
Having a pet really helps. Our chihuahua gives us hearty laughs every day.
I started keeping a few houseplants and didn’t enjoy it at all for about 3 years, but being the caretaker for a helpless living thing, and watching it grow and thrive, has awakened something in me.
I really like lighting up some weed at the end of the day and having a little meditation and perspective about my day/month/life.
I also have a convertible and I’ll be damned if driving that thing doesn’t put a smile on my face most days
