  I'd argue that's better than most of what they listed.

  You will die one day. And all the stuff you learned goes along with it. 
  Unless I'm actively allowed to help change the world for the better, I don't care to learn. 
  That being said, I'm looking at starting materials engineering school late this year. Cause I do believe in making the world better. I really want to help develop battery technologies. >
  
  I have a job and two little kids so I'm always tired but when I have some time late at night I always use it to learn something or practice some software, clean my pc files, edit some old videos, I can't just sit and watch a tv show without feeling like I'm wasting time. I can watch something with the wife, that's not wasted time because we're sharing something but If I'm alone I'm not doing it. 
  I always see guys my age (late 30's) talk about vidoegames and I just don't get how they have the time I like videogames but all I have is racing games where I can go play a couple races and that's it, nothing too time consuming. >
  
  A good  reminder >
  
  I just like being outside. Just wandering around. Am I “actively learning”? Not really. Am I going to see some really cool birds? Most likely. 
  To each their own.
