This is such a simple question but it's important.

I used to play video games and fap back in the day. But having left these behind, I filled my time with reading, lifting and working. All self improvement stuff. They're more "refined" fun. I am burnt out. Interested to see what like-minded men do.

I like to lift, read, movies and work. And when not doing that I play video games. But they can become addictive so I do it in short intervals. Like, I'm taking a month to play some games, then I'll hit the road and won't have any games for a year. I also love travelling, picking up women, swimming, and motorcycles.

Surfing, classical piano, picking up chicks, camping/meditation retreats, digging into health research to learn new ways to optimize my health, watching stand up comedy, have some good laughs w/ good friends, and listen to podcasts and reading books on all those topics.

Nothing like learning a new skill/hobby that excites you for growth/enjoyment. I try to make sure all of my non-work related stuff makes me either cooler/sexier or more wealthier as a byproduct.

I.e. I taught myself classical piano which deepens my character (Im an artist now) and increases my sexiness as a byproduct. And its fun/fulfilling as well. So birds 1 stone.

Researching health stuff is good for my business/niche and also improves my health/life.

Meditation/camping is good mini vacation and good for my mental health. I do my strategizing, reflection, reading, and writing here.

As a man on my purpose everything I do (other from socializing for fun occaisonally) has a purpose in furthering my goals and mission.

I guess it's fun because it gets me out of the house. I listen to podcasts, and then after go to the Sauna, hot tub, pool, steam room. So the whole event is quite fun. I'm by no means a pro at working out. I just do it because it's better than sitting on my laptop.

I also write fiction, short stories, and have an instagram experimental poetry meme page.

I used to play guitar, and sometimes I pick one up and play, and women are super impressed. I forget how impressive being a musician is to women. I'm just more interested in writing than playing guitar.

P.s. You should make your books into audiobooks...

Competitive combat sports, circuit training, some supplemental weight lifting and calisthenics. I work out quite a lot and quite intensely. Furthermore I am a big sucker for old pc games when there was more depth and less graphics, although I enjoy the occasional good new game as well. I think watching or reading good quality fiction is nice as well because it can serve as inspiration.

Nice bro. You ever play Titanic: Adventure Out Of Time? Very intricate interesting plotline in that game. Circa 1997?

Actually never heard of this game. Just googled it. I saw the rating and it's quite high! But the old CRPG's, countless strategy games, those sucked out a big part of my youth haha. I was (still am) a true nerd haha.

Yeah they can become quite consuming lol. There used to be a free download online you could use but not seeing it anymore. Looks like it moved to steam or GOG .. dunno but sure its still available.

Yeah check it out the next time your looking to kill 20 hrs of your life. Its slow going at first but realize the thing is ingenius whoever wrote the storyline once you get into the thick of it.

Lots of those oldschool games are literary masterworks man. Just compare Fallout II which was a true masterpiece with the new recent "fallout games", it doesnt even come close. Also I share the sentiment the old timers are difficult to get into gameplaywise but once you do they rock your world

I paint and watch sports, movies and TV-shows and play video games.

I am trying to replace the video games with meditation and reading meaningful books, but I have an addiction :p

Mountain biking is prob the most fun thing for me. Especially air filled big wheelers. Makes me crack up to jump around on those babies.

public speaking and storytelling

I love cooking.

Dancing

And fighting - krav maga currently when i have the time. But not sure its fun. more the ambitious side of things. sorta like skills depicting gym for him. i do gym too when the others get too tough to schedule in.

i like intelligent perspectives - so i read quite a lot and stay updated. Anything from inspiring characters to interesting books on matters. Less fiction.
