What things can be done in one's free time?

Getting free time is like a dream come true in today’s life.

We start planning the moment we hear of getting some free time. The housewives who are thought of as enjoying leisure at home are too busy that they too keep searching for free time. It is very difficult for those who have not switched to a planned schedule in their life to think what to do in free time.

They are all in a state of confusion. So let’s start with them

•  You need to list the things in order of importance.
• 
  
•  If you are single then finish core of day to day life, like tidying the room, sending clothes to the laundry, paying bills, repairing machines, etc. these will keep your mind relaxed for next coming week.
• 
  
•  Just unwind and relax yourself. Have a sound sleep if you miss it. Go for a spa/parlor.
• 
  
•  If you are a parent/spouse, give your time to the children/partner. Plan a picnic, watching a movie, etc. just go for shopping or to a park.
• 
  
•  If this is not possible stay indoors and enjoy a special dinner, cook with your family, help your children in solving their problems in studies, give your time to the elders. Make a wholesome family atmosphere.
• 
  
•  Think of planting some plants in the balcony with you family members.

If you have a well-planned schedule throughout then you really have free time at your disposal. Here you can plan according to the budget 

o Plan a trip to a resort, or to your relatives (please confirm if they are willing to receive you).

o You can go and watch a match/movie/music concert, etc., with your family/friends.

• 
  
• The second last possibility is if you already have these things in your schedule then enjoy your free time with your community/friend circle in doing social service.
  

•  Plant trees, especially fruit-bearing trees.
• 
  
•  Arrange education camps to educate children or adults in the slums.
• 
  
•  Organize camps to clean the surroundings.
• 
  
•  Visit your village/rural area to study their problems and try to help them. Teach them the use of new technology.
• 
  

The last possibility depends on the type of job (mental or physical) you are involved in.

• If you are involved in physical activities then you need to do some chores of mental exercise during your free time, like playing games, reading, etc.

• If you are involved in mental activities then you need to enjoy physical activities.

• If you think you need to earn money then let that be your priority and do some side job.

Whatever the mode of enjoying the free time may be, always keep yourself aware of your pocket, need and time.

Don’t spend too much that you get into tension. Don’t exhaust yourself or the family members or your friends. Don’t breach the code of conduct that puts you in trouble (advice for youngsters).

Don’t follow the advice of others, just do what you really wish to do in your free time, except that you need to be very thoughtful.
