Leisure Time

  1. I plan my day to day life and follow it to the point of obsession so during my day-offs I wasn’t sure what to do to relax until one day it hit me and I stopped planning one of those days. No promises, no alarms, no plans and absolutely no worries, I tell myself I deserve it and do whatever I feel like doing. It was hard at first but try to give yourself just a day or half a day even a couple of hours to relax, everybody needs it.

  2. I found that structured leisure time can cure this feeling for me. If I have a big block of time to screw around I will tell myself, “ok, Netflix for a bit but then I have to go for a run at 12. I’ll get back and read just one chapter then I’ll do a chore.” Even if you don’t stick to your own schedule perfectly, you’ll at least won’t feel like the bay is actively being wasted.

  3. I started to play a Supaboy while I ride a recumbent bike and it really married fun and exercise for me. I actually look forward to my cardio time because it means I can play video games. Those minutes when I’m alone and just in it are so precious to me.

  4. I get this.

    This is sometimes why we let time just… pass. The indecision of committing to something and lack of self discipline to do it can just… paralyze you

    Sometimes the only way to handle it is to decide one thing to do on each day and just hard focus that

  5. And then when you engage in any of these activities you’re wondering if it’s the best usage of your time. You find yourself optimally playing video games and watching TV for the sake of relieving stress, but you just end up creating more.

    This is why yoga and meditation are good. Take time out of your day to practice either or both of them, learn to just slowly take your time with something and appreciate the moment. You’ll feel far better after 10-20 minutes of that than you will after 5-6 hours of scrolling through Reddit and watching Youtube.
