I think about my home, and I think of ways to make my surroundsound system sound better, ways to make my living room more comfortable, ways to keep my pantry stocked with food I like at reasonable prices, etc.I think about my retirement, and my investments toward that retirement, and how to maximize my returns on those investments to leverage my surplus income into a brighter future.I think about my children, and how I can help educate them, and raise them, to be intelligent responsible adults that contribute to society and are able to live happy and fruitful lives.I'm always looking for deals, looking for new ideas, and trying to think about ways to make my life more pleasant, and the lives of people I work with and live with and associate with more pleasant.I can't abide by a "Don't think about it" mentality. Even the best game on the planet has room for improvement. Not thinking about ways to improve your life, even if we're only talking about a hobby you do for entertainment, is stagnation.I prefer evolution to stagnation.</blockquote>
