When we have free time on our hands, we have millions of different options to choose from. We could start reading a new bestseller that has seemingly been on everyone’s lips for the last few weeks. We might decide to simply sit and binge watch our favorite TV shows all day. We might decide to research recipes or take care of our household matters. We might decide to start planning this year’s summer vacation…the list could go on.

If I’m honest, I typically don’t know what to do with my free time, so I get bored and then annoyed and anxious that I can’t figure out what to do. I want to do something, but I don’t want to do anything that would require too much effort. I think this is why so many of us sit and look at our phones so much.
