Here is how I spent the past few hours of my evening:

Cleaned the kitchen and organized recycling. Lifted weights and did abdominal exercises. Played some video games. Watched an anime episode. Read a couple chapters of a book. Thought of ways to look my best for a possible first date coming up

When you actively engage with life, do things that are both enjoyable for you and good for your well being, unplug from the phone and work on your crafts, this will work to dispel loneliness

The reason being is because my mind is now filled with thoughts of what my next work out will be, what I’m going to write next in my novel, what strategies I’m going to take next in my games etc

Give your mind other things to preoccupy yourself. Don’t do it casually, actively engage, get passionate, strategic, calculated. Treat your activities like your own personal missions!

TL DR: get out of your damn head and go do something with your time!
