Consider whether your free time is used in an enriching way. Pure relaxation can be fine; you don’t always have to be expanding your mind. But after a certain level of exposure, social media checking, Internet scrolling, and “whatever and chill” may be dumbing you down, blunting your sensibilities. So less screen time. Go to a museum. Go to a play or an opera. Watch a film (not a movie). Read a novel. Steady exposure to the rich ambiguities of human motivation contained in the great works of world art can be profoundly inspiring and transformative.
