Some alternative suggestions: 1. If you're grumpy, eat. 2. Spend time with your kids or family, even if your back hurts. Something as simple as watching a movie together is good. 3. Visit your mom/dad more often. I wish I had. 4. Take your medicine when your back hurts. Don't "muscle" through things. 5. Don't judge others, some of us at 40+ are not doing as well. 6. Think about mentoring/part-time teaching/a way to give back to the community. 7. Buy a house, or check your 401k. 8. Don't chase happiness, be content. 9. Play board games, because they're amazingly interactive and a good way to retain friends and family.
