Are You Alone.. ? ? Its time to Restore yourself...!!!
If
you're reading this you're probably really bored and, at the moment,
have no one to be with. Whether you long for a boyfriend or
girlfriend, or miss your family and friends. May be this will help
you you cope with living alone. Keep in mind that humans are
indeed social animals, but that doesn't mean that we can't be
perfectly happy outside of society too.
1. Write. Write a story or two. This not only increases your imagination, but also keeps you happy. This highly increases your optimism. You can also write some poetry and some quotes, daily dairy and a lot more.
2. Be happy. Live a life of optimism. Happiness comes from
within regardless of your situation, so don’t use any excuses, such
as being alone. Try to find happiness in each event.
3.Learn something
new. Learning is the most important aspect of living alone. It
helps to keep the boogeyman away, and also gives you something to
talk about when you do have to actually enter society. Learning
is also incredibly more efficient when you don't have social
responsibilities like family to take care of, or a girlfriend or
boyfriend to entertain. Learning isn't just exclusive to books
(although they are a great source of knowledge). You can learn to do
anything by just practicing. Enrolling in classes is fun and also
helps with the social life - you will meet new people in your
classes. If you're not so much into the meeting people, the Internet
is a great way to learn pretty much everything (That's what this
site's for!). Consider learning: Indoor Activities: A Foreign
Language, Painting, Yoga, Mathematics, Science, Art Appreciation, A
Musical Instrument such as piano or flute. Outdoor Activities:
Gardening,Fencing, Tennis, Golf. Or Combination - things you can do
indoors and out: Photography, Drawing. It will help a lot.
4. Get
a pet: Humans need affection, without it they become bitter and
hate the world around them. Pets are always a source of affection and
will give loads of it endlessly. Pets also provide someone to
talk to. No, it's not weird that you talk to your pet, it's weird if
you don't. Just be cautious that your pet doesn't talk back (unless
if it is one of the few types of birds that can do so). If so, seek
professional help. If you are aloof and
self-sufficient, tropical fish, hamsters, budgies or finches are
great choices. If you like a little interaction, but not a lot of
maintenance, try a cat. If you want to be very hands-on, spend lots
of time and get lots of feedback, a dog is for you.
5. Read: Now
may be the time to catch up on some of your reading. Not only is it
fun and enjoyable, but it's also self-education and a way to round
yourself as a person. Consider spending some time with classics
such as "Moby Dick," "A Christmas Carol," "Romeo
and Juliet," "The Martian Chronicles," "Great
Expectations," or "Tales of Mystery and Imagination." Or
choose a genre to explore: Sci-Fi greats include "Stranger In a
Strange Land," "Fahrenheit 451," and the "Dune"
series. Horror: "Salem's Lot," "The Stand," and
"Dracula." Fantasy: "Lord of the Rings,"
"Chronicles of Narnia," and "Harry Potter." Or
just regular fiction: "East of Eden," "To Kill a
Mockingbird," or "A Farewell to Arms." Poetry is
cool, too, and nothing makes you look cooler than when someone says,
"Oh my God, you actually know that by heart?" Great poetry:
"Charge of the Light Brigade," "Ulysses," "She
Walks In Beauty," "How Do I Love Thee," and
Shakespeare's Sonnets - #29 is great! You also have the
opportunity to check out some playwrights such as; Edward Albee,
David Mamet, Neil Simon and Tennessee Williams. Each playwright
incorporates an interesting view and characters whose lives are
constantly being turned on their heads . You can try some
romantic stories of mills and boon too, if you love them. Indian
MBA author also a good option for indians.. there are inspirational
.
6. Join an on-line community. Don't limit your on-line
activities to just games. Join forums or chat rooms to meet new
people also. Take whatever you're interested in and find other people
like you. Write on blogs... write on forum.... discuss thing...
thats really awesome.
7. Think. Be introspective. Contemplate or
ponder things. Above all, contemplation is one of the most
important self-building things you can do. Think about what makes
you you. What
do you believe in? Why? Are there any things that don't seem right to
you? What do you believe at face value (or accept as a matter of
faith)? Philosophy is a great way to improve your thinking and
reasoning skills. It will give you interesting topics that will
stretch and bend your brain to help you understand your view of
reality. Keep in mind that just because someone believes in something
it doesn't mean you have to if you don't like it. Philosophers:
Socrates, Plato, Nietzsche, Descarte, Aristotle, Kant, Rand, Marx.
Don't over-analyse things independent of you. It is easy to
read-into experiences, feelings, thoughts, and attitudes of others
and make judgements that are really founded on nothing more than your
own naive perception. This can quickly become a negative activity and
get you down. Realize that you don't have all the facts and that's
OK.
8. Exercise: Now is the time to get that body you've
always wanted. Instead of just pigging out on junk food and sitting
in front of the TV all night, do some push-ups or sit-ups. Rediscover
the fun to be had in simple exercises. Riding a bike around your
neighborhood becomes less work and more fun as you do it. Be
consistent. Exercise takes willpower and diligence. Make a schedule
and stick to it. Keep it easy at first and you will discover your
limits. Or, join a gym and create new friends there.
9. Listen to
lots of music. If you are a music fan then you can enjoy being alone
by listening to music you enjoy or music that brings back memories of
certain events
10. Go outside. It's a big world out there, and
you're only seeing a small fraction of it. Forget the people, just
enjoy what life has to offer. Once you do that, then people will want
to know and be with you. Frankly, you won't have a choice but to have
friends!
Just take some time and live alone and restore yourself for new people.... Forget about the bad moments... Just learn from them and try to more good friends, good relations..!!! .
