- rorykoehler 7y agoCycling does it for me
- yazaddaruvala 7y agoI routinely go for 3 hour bikes rides where using a phone is not worth the risk attached lol. I love these bike rides and do a lot of thinking. But it’s not the same as when I was a kid and daydreaming and I’m not sure why. Maybe my mind is just more structured? So rather than meandering I end up think about more introspective/pragmatic things?
- discreteevent 7y agoTry taking a break and sitting down for 10 minutes. It changes the atmosphere of the ride afterwards. Not in a major way, but it's good.
- speg 7y agoI like to start with a good fantasy. What if I won the lotto or I had created Facebook? Then I could launch a war with the mayor. Become mayor. Create a new traffic enforcement group. Buy out the cable internet monopoly and make it a National coop. Or maybe I’m just crazy!
- catalogia 7y agoSwimming laps is what does it for me. I don't swim competitively anymore, but I think competitive swimming provides a good, almost contradictory, mix of teamwork/socialization and isolation.
