I retired for 8 months. Did a lot of woodworking, bike rides, hiking, temple,
read for fun, woke up when I wanted, caught up on favorite shows, gardening, birding, house repairs, took a cruise, went out to lunch a lot, spent lots of time with my wife, played with grandkids, visited and took care of my aging parents, then I went back to work. After 18 months of back to work, we realize I don't really need to work anymore so I'll probably be done soon. Mission is in our future.
I honestly had no problem occupying my time when I was retired.
