Marilyn (”The Toymaker”) relates a list of seven “ways to develop breadth” and “avoid becoming stagnant and boring” from an old textbook:
1. Wide reading outside one’s special area,
2. Cultivation of associates and friends outside one’s special area,
3. Varied recreational and cultural participation,
4. Travel,
5. A cultivation of broad interests,
6. A persistent relationship with the world of nature,
7. Activity that lifts one out of self and narrow self-concern, e.g. service or worship.
