author:I don't eat spicy Sichuan girls

In this era of mobile phones, we seem to be used to using it to fill every idle moment.

Speaking of which, I want to ask you a question, when you are generally alone, are you watching dramas or sleeping?

To tell you the truth, in the past, as soon as I was free, I would immediately go to look at my phone.

As time goes by, my phone is brushed more and more, and my eyes are becoming more and more short-sighted, and since last year, as long as there is nothing to find me at work, I basically don't look at my phone.

After being alone for more than half a year, I realized that in addition to playing with my mobile phone, there are many book things to do.

Minimalist living: In addition to playing with your phone, 10 other things you can do when you're alone

1. Reading

Books are the ocean of knowledge and the source of wisdom. Every time I flip through a different kind of book, it feels like a whole new world has opened.

As the saying goes: where you can't call it, books can. Every time I read a book, I can understand a different life and experience different ups and downs.

2. Calligraphy

Calligraphy can exercise a person's patience and concentration, and every stroke and stroke needs to be completed with our hearts.

3. Listen to music

Frankly, I feel that music has a magical power that penetrates my heart and makes me feel an indescribable beauty.

Sometimes when I am tired, I close my eyes and lie on the sofa, and the music instantly introduces me to a whole new world, and it turns out that life can be so beautiful.

Fourth, learn skills

Whether it's cooking, photography, or programming, as long as you learn by heart, you can master it. These skills will not only allow you to have fun when you're alone, but they'll also allow you to showcase your talents in front of your friends.

5. Keep a diary

When I used to study, I liked to record my thoughts and feelings every day, and after graduating, I wrote more than 10 books unconsciously. Keeping a journal not only exercises our writing skills, but also allows us to learn more about ourselves.

6. Call your family

Being alone doesn't mean being isolated. We can use this time to video chat with friends or family and share each other's lives. Although we can't meet face-to-face, our hearts can still be connected through the Internet.

7. Get close to nature

If you like nature, then going for a walk outside is also a good option. Breathe in the fresh air, enjoy the beautiful scenery and feel the magic of nature. In the lap of nature, you will find a sense of tranquility and serenity.

8. Improve yourself

Of course, being alone is also a good time to improve yourself. You can take online courses or lectures to learn something new and broaden your horizons.

9. Handmade

For example, weaving, pottery, etc., these activities can not only exercise your hands-on ability, but also develop your patience and carefulness. When you finish a handmade piece, the sense of accomplishment is indescribable.

10. Reflection and planning

Being alone is a great opportunity to reflect on your past and plan for your future. You can look back on your growth and gains during this time, and you can also think about your goals and plans for the future. In this way, your life will be clearer and more meaningful.

In this hustle and bustle of the world, being alone is a rare pleasure.

When we put down our phones and try to do these meaningful things, you will find that life can be so simple and beautiful.

So, from now on, let's do something else when we are alone besides playing on our phones.
