Do you struggle with what to do in your free time?

[GrantMeThePower]

I dont have a ton of free time. Between work, girlfriend, dogs, house stuff, gym, etc, the amount of truly free time I have to do whatever the fuck i want is very small.

When I finally get a few hours of alone, free, time it is so hard to figure out what i want to do because there is SO much I want to do.

For instance, tonight.

I could play one of the 10 video games i haven't played that i want to (but then i'd have to choose which to play)

I could watch the Laker game

I could rent a movie I missed

I could read a book that I have been wanting to

I could catch up on sleep

etc.

Its a bit frustrating and really hard to decide what I want to do ... the MOST.

Anyone else feel that way?

Sometimes, but usually not.

 

[oznerol]

Yes. Definitely.

I am terrible at making these useless, minute decisions. And what ultimately happens is I'll end up just not deciding and doing nothing.

 

[evident]

yes

 

[Farang]

my life is nothing but free time, apparently i spend a lot of it here

 

[JohnCU]

all the time, usually i just get trashed and pass out

I tend to pick one activity and just ride it into the ground. Then when I'm completely sick of it I'll pick a new activity and repeat.

 

[ViviTheMage]

video games, DO IT.

 

[KeithTalent]

Free time? What's that?

Same here!

It's netted me a slew of useful hobbies, from car/motorcycle maintenance to entry level electric work.

You've got two of the things I'm going to do tonight on your list:


I could play one of the 10 video games i haven't played that i want to (but then i'd have to choose which to play)

I could watch the Laker game

Yes, definitely. What I hate the most is when I can't decide which of the options I want to do, so I just piddle away time watching youtube videos or something while I try to make up by mind, and then I've wasted too much time and can't do any of the options.

 

[Fenixgoon]

i'm busy avoiding writing a research paper

Exactly what i'm afraid I'll do.

 

[imported_Imp]

No, got too much of it.

 

[rasczak]

i have no free time. such is life with a wife and kids.

 

[Muse]

I have too many undone things to do to even trip on it. Free time? What's that? Time is in short supply. My primary focus is prioritization! I'm trying to figure out how to succeed at that.

Gotta say, though, that at times I really enjoy just letting myself do WTF I want. I guess that works better when I've gotten some real stuff done that I felt I needed to do!

 

[K1052]

not really

Well I was born and raised in California, I didn't move here until 2007.

[MagnusTheBrewer]

You're not struggling with what to do with your limited free time, you're struggling to make a decision which, I suspect, includes all of your time.

 

[HardcoreRobot]

i have very little trouble enjoying my free time

 

[TecHNooB]

Sleep.
