Do you have projects you care about outside of work?

If so, you'd have more time to dedicate to those projects.

If not, maybe you would be inspired to try a new project that you didn't have time for previously.

There's always work to be done. Some people could actually become organized, exercise, spend more time with their families, be better parents.

In the past when I've been unemployed I've spent the time to refine myself in new ways. If you've never had a sabbatical I suggest trying it if you have the opportunity.
