Playing video (or other) games isn't necessarily a waste of time, depending on how far you go with it and what you want to get awesome at... :)
Diminishing returns. I'm glad I've played video games. I'm also glad I'm not currently playing video games.
Yes it depends on your goals. Don't construct your goals just to preclude learning, though; getting strong is very likely to be a good idea, thus arguments against it are very suspect.
This strikes me as a very useful heuristic.
In strategy games there's a problem some players have where they spend too long building up a huge economy and forget to spend any of it on an actual army.
Honestly I already doubt that any further self-improvement could increase my rate of Fun. I'm enjoying my life, I'm in a decent financial position, I have good friends.... More awesome people don't seem to be any happier than me.
