Don't feel bad about being useful. It's all part of the work-life balance, with a focus on balance. These techniques for finding your bliss could be affordable, or even free.
Get into the jokes
Whether instigated by jokes, humorous stories or even recommended doses of quirky behavior, the onset of laughter is restorative. Delivery is the most essential thing. If you observe the world around you and do not take yourself too seriously, proper delivery can make even relatively mundane statements into laughter popcorn. Make yourself and someone else smile. It doesn't cost a thing.
Being unproductive tip No. 2: Observe new things
You can do activities like going rock climbing or playing the piano. They are fun to look at also. Make sure you pay close attention to them. You do not always have to participate right away; in fact, you can just watch right now and choose to do them later instead.
Next to view the wild
You can end up really happy just by listening and observing the insects, reptiles and creatures around you. Listen to the noises that they give, especially in the mornings and evenings.
Check out the park
Get a chair or blanket and sit in the park listening to and watching the people around you. You can always bring lunch with you while enjoying the free activity of watching others. You do not have to spend cash to be happy.
Go to the garden
Check to see if your town has a neighborhood flower garden or arboretum. Even a greenhouse will do. Seeing flowers, trees and other plants is a pleasant way to enjoy an afternoon, and many facilities of this nature do not charge an admission fee.
Cloud structures
This is an easy one to mix with your trip to the park. Observe cloud structures and try to classify the shapes in your mind. You don't have to know what type of cloud it is, but you can decide whether it looks like Wimpy from "Popeye." If you are with friends and family, share your observations and compare.
Do some reading
While finding bliss with mindless television can really be costly (it murders brain cells), reading a book that has nothing at all to do with being an upwardly mobile social climber isn't really quite so expensive. The same holds true for magazines and relatively long pamphlets, provided they aren't job-related. Read for pleasure, not for data.
Photos around you
Keep your mind active by looking at old photographs. You can remember the stories related to the photos and get personal enjoyment out of it.
Watch a sport
Balance your life out instead of always attempting to work. You do not have to go as far as benign productive by playing some kind of sport. Instead, you should just watch the sport for just a little while. Watching the game can help you relax and enjoy yourself some more.
Use the free time you have
You can hold off on all your work by going on just a little walk in the evening or by taking off your shoes and feeling the sand between your toes. There are rivers and oceans around or even walking trails you can go on.
