Suggestion I suggest you and am trying to follow while without work:

* Get up in the morning and run - 10-20 min., but do it. I was very skeptical about running too, but after my first 6km cross I signed up for many 5 to 10km running things. It strengthens all your body, it does not take long, you get to know people and actually do feel happier;

* Get into cold shower next - not only you will feel amazing, alive after running, but will be ready for anything after such a happiness, testosterone boost!;

* Get a light breakfast, something from yesterday evening what is left and veggies;

* Do whatever you want;

* Run in the evening for as much as you wish, it is great thing to do before bed;

* Prepare something you can from the things you have - there are numerous websites with daily recipes, simple, cheap and healthy, you will never go wrong with learning how to cook. The simple idea what to do and how to feel things is important - not remembering the recipes one by one. Be sure to leave something for the morning to smash an egg on top and fry, or put on a bread - your pick;

* Read few pages of book (if you have the idea of speed reading) and just between brushing your teeth and going to sleep close your eyes and meditate - think about nothing, blend in the environment, you are not there, you are THERE (as in environment) and after you get distracted by your thoughts, think and imagine what you want to achieve, what you crave and want to be, how will that feel, what are the perspectives... and you are asleep..

I don't believe that people can be focused on one thing for 10k hours straight, so these are just a common advices on keep yourself fit, help your immune system, happiness and testosterone, learn how to cook basic stuff, read a bit or perhaps start a small journal (I started a journal during my volunteering abroad and it is amazing thing to have), relax your brain and use the secret** to attract what you want the most!

In mean time do whatever swings your boat! For me it is cycling and basic mechanics
