How can I make use of the time that I spend alone constructively? (feddit.de)

I couldn't learn this in teenagehood nor early adolescence so I have to learn it now. I don't want to go into details of my upbringing, but think about a kid living on the streets, growing up only knowing war and survival

Before I start, you don't owe anyone any specific way to spend your time. Don't feel like you need to spend time constructively. It's ok to do nothing.

That being said, reading is always good, or you can pick up a hobby to develop new skills. It can be anything from knitting to woodworking. Life is packed with shit you have to do that you don't necessarily want to. If you have a choice, pick something you enjoy. It's ok to drop something you don't enjoy. Sell or give away whatever supplies you bought, and find something else.
