Yesterday, while scrolling mindlessly on Reddit, I came across one of the most positive threads I have encountered recently. Answering a curious question from u/computarprintar on R/AskWomen, people are sharing the things they do to make their every day lives more exciting. Here are the most relevant answers that might help you make your days a little more happening.
Comment from discussion Last-Hedgehog6422's comment from discussion "How do you make everyday life more exciting?".
1.Matching music to the meal you are having
"I match music to my dinners. If it’s Italian night, we are listening to Italian opera. If it’s Swedish meatballs, we play Abba. And so on." —u/weasel999

2."Reading a good book"
3."Energy drinks"
4.Going MIA for a couple of hours
"Sometimes I like being MIA for a couple of hours. Nobody knows where the heck I am. I might be at the flea market, I might be on a paddleboard in the middle of a lake, and I might be at the local yarn shop. I usually don't know where I'm going when I decide I'm dropping out for a few hours, but I'm never disappointed." —u/degeneratescholar

5."Lighting your home with candles"
6.Practicing mindfulness
"I've found practicing gratefulness/mindfulness helps life seem more interesting as you start to think about things you didn't before. Your mind begins to get more curious and you may find new interests. Another thing would be to plan something to look forward to. If the day is feeling dull what you have planned coming up can get you excited. Even if it's something small like a plan to get coffee on the weekend with a friend or some time after work to watch your favorite show." —u/aaethon36

7.Sneaking fun outfits under work formals
"Work has a very formal and boring dress code (suit jacket/suit pants every day), so for fun, I sneak bright-colored layers underneath and hide them all day. It brings me joy lol." —u/azeldatothepast3

8.Getting a new pet
"Ask yourself if there’s room in your life for a new pet." —u/dylan_dumbest

9.Discovering "new" stuff
"I like discovering something 'new.' I like music — so a new album to hear while driving to work. New recipe. New plant. New book. Whatever it is that makes you stop, think, and appreciate time on this Earth. Keep that going with discovery." —u/seandaleyspean

10.Eating breakfast for dinner
Once a week breakfast for dinner. It’s a joy and it’s easy." —u/ka_tom
