  • Music … learn music … learn the piano … or learn the guitar … or whatever instrument you might have used before. Music really occupies your mind because it needs a lot of mental training. You have to coordinate your body to do things, your brain has to train to follow patterns, your listening has to coordinate with what you are doing and what you produce … it’s a full brain experience and once you get accustomed to it, time seems to change … you play for an hour and it felt like you were there for five minutes but it also felt like hours passed by, it’s amazing. I’m not a great musician, I know my basics but it’s fun every time I do it.

    To make it easier … leave the instrument in your living space and make it easy to pick up … park the piano in your living room where you see it every day … or a guitar on a stand next to your seat … etc

    If you are not musical or want to learn music … then try visual art … drawing, painting

    Just a simple pencil and paper to start with … doodling and learning forms and human anatomy … I used to do that for years when I was a teen and learned a lot but life got in the way and I got too busy to keep it up. But I have a few friends who kept it going and now produce beautiful artwork.

    And it’s all about training and time. If you play music or learn to draw in a month … it probably won’t sound great or look great … give yourself a year and you’ll be producing great things … give yourself a few years and you’ll be a musician or an artist recognized by others
