Stuff To Do On A Rainy Day

Wednesday, August 13th, 2008

I was just sitting at my desk, looking out of my window at our very gloomy, wet, English weather, and I came up with my blog post for today: Stuff To Do On A Rainy Day!

If you don’t have to go to a job, then being at home can look a bit dull on a day like today.  These are my list of great things to do on a rainy day:

  • While it’s on, don’t miss the Olympics - there is nothing so cheering on a grey day as seeing your countryman win a medal!  I find it inspirational.  And even when we are disappointed in our hopes, there are so many amazing personal achievements and breakthroughs going on across the whole Olympiad, you can’t help but be cheered by the smiling faces of those who do win!
  • Clear some clutter - if you’re stuck indoors, it’s a great idea to clear out a few cupboards and throw away stuff that you don’t use, don’t like, or is broken.  You might even find you can make a bit of money by selling your stuff on Ebay!  You will find that clearing out clutter has an amazing effect on the way you feel.  Every time you see that cleared cupboard, room or desk, you will feel less cluttered in your head as well, and ideas may come to you that you couldn’t think of before.
  • Read a book - reading exercises the brain and can be extremely uplifting, depending on the subject matter of course.  Why not use the time to get round to some of those self help books you’ve wanted to for so long?  Get some ideas from the following: Inspirational Books
  • Do Some Surveys and Get Paid!  Filling in surveys can be a great way of earning a little extra money.  While you won’t get rich, it can certainly be a welcome addition to your income.  Go to this page of my website for a few ideas: www.wealth-city.com/paid-surveys.html
  • Start a home business!  OK, this might not suit everyone, but if you’re feeling fed up with your present situation and want to start something new that you could really get your teeth into, you could be earning a full time income within two years.  My website will give you plenty of ideas, and you’ll get a free motivational newsletter for joining as my affiliate too: www.wealth-city.com. If you’re not quite ready to do this, then why not sign up to my free home business newsletter and think about it for a while? You’ll find the sign-up link on the left of my website.

It doesn’t really matter what the weather is doing, you can always find things to do that are exciting, inspirational and self-motivating.

Whatever you find to do on a rainy day, don’t forget to have fun!
