Here are some ideas of what you could do to keep yourself busy
Volunteer at different workplaces– volunteering will certainly give you a sense of responsibility and something to look forward to.
Go to the library- read and research always help, you could read as a hobby or just to develop a certain writing skill.
Learn a new skill- always wake up with a new plan, strategy and ways of achieving it.
Get creative- try something new, something you have always wanted to try but had no courage to do it.
Stay active- go to gym, jog and do house chores to keep busy.
