This tip might not work for everyone but it works for me.
When you have some free time and you're burned out from electronics, consider going to your local library and walking around.
In a typical public library, it costs no money to enter and just hang out, because the cost is already covered by tax dollars. Once inside, you'll see scores of books about subjects that might interest you.
My favorites are the autobiographies--stories of great men and women who write on how they earned their success. What can be better than leaning their secrets and being inspired by their stories? I love gaming as much as the next guy, but learning will likely be longer lasting (and much more practical) than your level 80 WoW toon. All Minecraft structures eventually fall.
So next time you're feeling a little burned out by electronic overload, pop on in to your local library and get your knowledge on. After all, you can't "Live The Boss Life" without knowing all the angles.
I live very close to my public library, while small provides me with endless info : )
ReplyDeleteNot just reading about people with success but also surround yourself with successful people.
ReplyDeleteGood tip! It definitely brings you back to earth and lets be honest, people stopped reading books today.
ReplyDeleteSome people still read books. My Mom for instance. Definitely not as popular as it once way.
ReplyDeleteGood post
ReplyDeleteI love going to the library, its fun and informative, you can always learn something from there, and above all you got the booky type chicks milling around as well.
ReplyDeleteTrue words, I love the library. I worked in the one at my University and I attempted to volunteer with my local one, but they gave me the cold shoulder (they were older people, not quite used to having a young person around). But libraries are an important part of your community, and hold a wealth of knowledge.
