    1: Steal a motorcycle
    2: take around 300 mcgs acid
    3: Rob a bank while getting the number of the beautiful clerk whose head youre holding the gun to, but play it smooth
    4: Escape through a maze of mega ramps and fire rings while the beauty from the bank guns down the helicopters from the backseat
    5: Profit!

    If you've already played gta however you could try farming simulator 2017, great modding scene I've heard.

  10. Talk to strangers. Make short to long conversations and gain diverse perspectives and spirits. It’s really fun, will bring joy to your life, and develop you to a better skilled person.

    It may not be easy, why because fear. Get past that fear.

  13. Definitely look at hobbies you'd like to pursue. But, I hear you. It's pretty difficult.

    At the core of the problem lies dopamine. Everything will be boring if you lack it. People that do skydiving have lower baselines of dopamine. People that watch porn have the same problem, but instead of skydiving you're consuming porn (the extreme stuff, the exciting stuff). But if you do it too often it will be the only thing left in your live that excites you. It takes a while to get back to normal levels, needless to say it's worth it. Another effect of normalized dopamine-levels is increased motivation, that's the main function of this neuromodulator, it motivates you to go out and do things. You probably know people with higher dopamine levels, those guys who always want to go out, do this and that, let's move, let's do, let's make... blablabla. You get the point. It's the opposite of what you're like; and it's because of different levels of dopamine. General baselines differ genetically, but can be changed by druguse or by using other supernatural stimuli.
    Fix your life by fixing your porn-use. Fix your dopamine. Increase your motivation and get things done. You'll be excited about it.
    Or keep boring or whatever...

    I may be wrong, but I read somewhere that if you have low dopamine levels, then you do not feel the joy of life and it is difficult for you to start doing anything. And in order to increase your dopamine level even a little, you need to do some super simple things before doing the main thing. For example, you need to start renovating your apartment. And it seems that you can look at the repair from the good side because you can do whatever you want to design, and so on, but this is a large layer of work and it can be burdensome. And before that, you should do a little thing that will energize you. For example, washing dishes or cleaning a room or making the bed, and turning the mattress on the bed. These are small things that are easy to do and you get the joy of doing the thing. There are already three completed tasks in your checklist - it's cool, but it took only 10-15 minutes. And thus your dopamine levels have increased and you are ready to get to work and enjoy it.
