Title: Could my life be more awesome?
Post by: Waifu on June 26, 2010, 03:46:38 AM
I wonder if its too late to do something fun in my life? Lately it feels like I could be going out there doing something but I trapped myself in my own house. I had yet to learn driving, land a job even though I am searching and money is not my friend nowadays but after seeing a few posts I realize I am not missing too much. Is there anyway to make my life more awesome?

Hang out with friends whom you have common interests with.

Ehh, I had little luck with that strategy in my high school. Meh, what you could at least do is try to find a good hobby, but don't let it consume ya.

Porn.

On a more serious note, take up something new that you may have never considered. Try taking up something. It doesn't have to be big. Maybe learning a new instrument, drawing, watching old fashion movies. Good thing about today's society is that no one can judge you for what you want to do.

If you're the competitive type, try fencing. It's amazingly fun against someone at your own skill level.

Works well for me, and for alot of people. Why shouldn't he hang out with friends with common interests? Sociability is the light of life.

I say go out. See the world. Do something crazy. Try volunteer work. Helping people in need is always good and you're able to put a smile on someone else's face, and also your own. If you can't find a good job, get one of those heavy work jobs that pay little. I've had several of those, and they do something to people. They kinda awaken them to live, it's like playing a sport, you get full of adrenaline and you end up feeling really good at the end of the day.

Work on three fronts:

1- Do sports and work out. Having a healthy body's awesome, and you FEEL awesome. Having TONS of energy to do alot of stuff, being able to run for awhile without getting tired, or just being able to be strong and doing manual labour easily. It's good for everyone.
2- Work on your culture. See your country? Read its in-depth history. Start catching up with current political affairs. Watch the news everyday. Get a ton of classic books from your library and READ THEM. Find out what you're missing. Be a cultured, knowledgeable individual. Improve yourself on that front.
3- Be sociable. Hang out with people. See that money you're saving to buy the latest game/manga/anime? Take it, and go get drunk with friends. have FUN. Do some kind of social activity, meet people, be smart and witty, get a girlfriend if you don't have one. Having good friends is the best thing in the world. You get to have one hell of a time in your life, and you get to enjoy amazing moments with them.

Do that, and you'll have an incredibly awesome life.

Like the title of this song says, life's what you make it.  My advice to you is while you're looking for work and money, take a good, hard, long look at yourself and figure out who you are, what skills you have, and what your interests in life are.  Perhaps make a Pros/Cons list of each category.  The key thing is to really be honest with yourself, or even ask friends & family members for their opinion of you, and have them do their best to be brutally honest.  Then, once you have your lists, use them to try and determine possible future career choices based on what type of person you are, your skills, and your interests.  For example, take me.  I thought of being a math teacher for a while because I'm really good at math and I'd get summers off.  However, after thinking about it more clearly, I realized that I'm a night owl, so waking up at 5 when I normally go to bed isn't for me.  Also, I maybe really good at math, but I don't like it like I do other things.  So I crossed that off the list.

I find self assessment to be really helpful in leading a good life.  It makes it where you can do your very best to avoid the things you don't like and strive for the things you do like.

Find something that makes you happy (That does not involve you sitting in your house, doing nothing but playing video games) and do it. Can't give you advice on what to do exactly, but try new things in life, and see how it goes.
