20 things to do when you don't know what to do

Lost?

And confused? 
And do you feel like things in your life haven't found their place yet? Its all so messy, sketchy, vague, mixed up, and you wake up in the morning thinking to yourself... where is my life going?

And you ask yourself the most important question: what do I want to do with my life?

As much as I would love to say I have found the solution to all those question, the truth is... I don't.

Sometimes you can find immediate answers to your problems, and sometimes you wish you could, but you don't know where to begin. 

But I do know some things you can do to stop mulling over it, even if its for a little while. They might not solve it all, but they will help. Here are somethings you can do on the days when you don't know what to do.

  1. Grab a Yoga mat, and do some stretches. Which will not only make your body feel better, but improve your mood.
  2. Drink the strongest coffee/tea possible. You need that extra caffeine boost to kick that feeling away.
  3. Go for a walk. The fresh air will do you good.
  4. Eat chocolate. Anything chocolate. Mmmmm cake. 
  5. Go out for a little date with yourself. 
  6. Watch a movie you wouldn't normally go for. Maybe in another language? 
  7. Eat at your favorite restaurant, bring a friend along.
  8. Get your head massaged. Nothing beats a good head massage.
  9. Sleep.
  10. Play your favorite song.
  11. Sing in the shower.
  12. Call a friend, bug him/her at work/college/school if you have to.
  13. Hug someone. You will not the believe the benefits of hugging. 
  14. People watch.
  15. Spend some time with a pet.
  16. Buy yourself the most fancy notebook you can find.
  17. Walk into your local comic book store. Geek happiness, right there.
  18. Go shopping for a new book. Take your time picking one.
  19. Buy yourself the nicest pen to go with that notebook.
  20. And the most recommended tip to give: Write. Write it all down in that notebook your just bought. Write whatever you feel in a different environment. Make sure you don't get up till you have written everything you wanted to say about what you feel and what you want to do. List down everything that makes you feel the way you currently are and prioritize them. Use a laptop if you prefer, but be sure to write it down.
That's what I just did :]
