[Considering a certain request she received, Miyako was stuck on how to handle this. She’s not the most social and outgoing of people. She is active, but Miyako knew very well she’s not the best possible person to advise that man about this. She only accepted the request for her own reasons.

But the request...after a thought, she typed up a post and put it on the network. Anonymously of course. Miyako doesn't want her name or face attached to this at the moment. If she's going to fulfil the request, she would give it her best and do it with all the possible information at hand.]

How do you get someone to be more social and active?

And get them to pick up a hobby?

Why not pick out something for you and your friend to do together? It might be easier if you both start it at the same time, too, if it's the kind of hobby - say, watching birds, or collecting things, or something - where you can go and get the stuff for it at the same time. Maybe make it some kind of friendly competition between yourselves as to who can do more of it by a certain deadline?

[A competition? Now that might make it fun for her as well.] A competition would work well as an motivation.

But I don't see how you can make bird watching into a competition.

You could pick a kind of bird and a different spot in the city, see how many of that kind of bird you saw within a couple of hours? With cell phones and computers and all, you could probably set up something to record it. Loser buys the winner an ice cream or something?

A contest to spot the most birds within a time limit? That might be good for training your eyes and reflex.
