90% of my problem is the winter. Its 20 degrees outside. I'll think about all the things I haven't done yet that I would want to do right now I cant think of anything.

Take yourself off to a beautiful location somewhere, beach, hill with a great view. Something away from concrete. Take some beer, food, tunes hell -take some friends and sit around a fire into the small hours if you're not after peace!
Break your routine however you can man.
Think of something you've wanted to do, take a microlight flying lesson. Learn to surf, whatever floats your boat.
I've been where you are and quite often, it's us that limits what we do by being set in our ways.
Get out of your comfort zone dude, you don't have to get miles away for a long time to feel re-energised.

Me and a buddy hiked to a remote beaver pond. Its actually more like a lake.

Clear mountain water. We built a fire on a bluff with a wind break over looking it all.


@Dr.Pecker

I like to hike to where I lose sign of humanity and then hike a couple more hours.

I've seen bear, cougars, Bob cats, and bald eagles.

A couple of times I've been closer to some of them animals than I was comfortable with.

To be in the middle of no where and realize your not top of the food chain can be scary and amazing.

I never needed to be afraid to realize that. I like doing what I'm doing it just gets real old when you never have a shut down. Its just like going to work every single day and never getting a day off. Most people get all happy when friday comes around because they know they can relax for a few days. To me friday is just another day infact the only reason I know what day it is, is because of my pill case.

Lol about the pill case...i gots me one too. Mb an hour a day doing cardio may help? It did for me. The brain releases shit that makes you feel good. well, it worked cor me....
think about getting a mutt to care for. It may help u take ur mind off ur self.
U need a change of scenery perhaps. That always worked too.
Anyway i do hope you can turn it around. I'd hate to see u become depressed.
A depressed pecker helps no one.

Ok, Doc:
Consider the following;
Why do you grow
How much do you grow
Do you need to grow so much,

answer those questions honestly and then think about tailoring down.

I go on vacation. I used to have someone watch my plants but people are idiots and always fuck shit up.

SO... I made a self watering system. 45 gallon reservoirs, pumps, sprinkler manifolds, LOTS of tubing, timers that can go by individual minutes.

Set everything up and it can water 36 plants drip style on the timers. Buys me a solid week for hawaii. :)

I like camping.

And not the groomed camped ground crap where everyone and their dog shows with "quite times" and shitters. No, the ride for hours to be miles from anyone.

Spend half the day riding, shooting, fish a little,eating, etc, then the other half tripping balls on some mush. An entire day combined of nothing but fucking off basically acting like a child exploring the world knowing the whole day is yours and there isn't a single human being around to interrupt my head-space. Come home feeling like I can handle the world for another months.
