When it's a dark winter evening outside the window, you can invite your friends and play mafia. Watch an interesting movie. Or start studying for free at Harvard, get an interesting profession and change your life forever.
Self-development
There are many ways to spend your winter evenings in an interesting and useful way. For example, you can learn a foreign language over the Internet. There are communities whose members teach each other through barter. First, one person acts as a teacher, and then the second person teaches the first native language.
You can join the virtual club of auteur cinema collectors, watch films, and then discuss them on the forum. Thanks to this communication, a person not only develops the inner world, but also meets interesting people.
If the situation permits, begin to meditate. Or learn to pronounce tongue twisters quickly. Compose of them a funny continuous monologue for 7-10 minutes, then record this speech on video and "upload" it to YouTube. Perhaps the talents of such a person will be interested in television or music channels and will be invited to work.
You can also join online communities whose members travel around the world, providing each other with their own accommodation for free. Make new acquaintances, determine in advance the places where you would like to visit, and go on a trip during your summer vacation. Or make a detailed plan for a summer bike trip to the Crimea.
Do sport
For example, start training and set a new Guinness record for push-ups.
Have fun
Make a delicious sandwich, brew your favorite tea, comfortably sitting in an armchair, read your favorite book again.
It turns out that in the dark, you can also hunt and fish. Even in small towns there are amateurs who can tell a lot about this and share their experience. Passion for hunting and fishing will not only bring a lot of pleasant emotions, but also diversify the menu of your own cuisine.
You can also arrange home games with friends and neighbors in monopoly or mafia. Or negotiate with them and stage an amateur performance, and then perform in front of loved ones on March 8th.
Earn
A person can join the community of copywriters and then start making money from the comfort of their home.
A creative person can start his own blog on the Internet, start writing in it interestingly. Over time, the number of daily readers will become so large that it will attract advertisers who will be willing to pay money to advertise on this blog.
And after some time, such a blogger will become not only popular throughout the country, but also a well-earning person.
There are many international universities that teach different specialties for free via the Internet. Degrees from institutions such as Harvard, Webster or Stamford are highly regarded throughout the world.
You can apply for training directly via the Internet, and at the end of the training course you can defend your diploma by passing the appropriate exam in your specialty. And then - write a resume and send it to employers. In companies located in countries where you want to live.
Of course, getting a good job is not easy, but still, an enterprising and persistent person will have the opportunity to drastically change their own life.
