Only boring people get bored. Find some hobbies. Learn something. Life is full of interesting things to do
just draw the rest of the owl
Does everyone really need hand-holding to find their own interests? I'm not going to like the same things that you like.
It's up to you to figure out what you like. There are an infinite number of things to do and combinations of interests.
I guess I have one piece of advice. Stop endlessly scrolling social media. It's ok for brief interludes like browsing on the toilet or waiting in line for something.. but it's empty. Works on similar mechanisms as slot machines.
Not everyone, but some folk. If everything new is scary, it's comfy and easy to just don't do any of them. I didn't like the first step mid air when ziplining off of the Euromast, but then the lovely guide told me I was doing great 😃👍 so I took another step in midair and then I was floating comfortably Infront of the restaurant guests. Sometimes, that's all it takes. Sometimes you have to spell it out.
