Tiny Change #31. Take time for your hobbies at least
a few times a month
When
was the last time you took time for your hobbies? Do you even
remember what your hobbies are?
Too often we have been relying on passive activities like watching
TV, watching a game, watching a movie. We claim we are too tired
at the end of the work day to do anything else. Maybe the reason
we don't have as much eneryg is because we aren't doing anything
that let's us actively enjoy what we are doing.
After I am done scrapbooking, playing the piano or gardening,
I am more energetic, not less. I feel alive. Refreshed. Unlike
after watching TV, where I feel sluggish and have a hard time
getting off the couch.
Write in your schedule three days - at least - that you are planning
on doing your hobby in the coming month. On those days, you can
turn off the TV or tell the committee you have another appointment.
If you've forgotten what your hobbies are, imagine back to when
you were a kid. What did you like to do? Did you like bike riding,
catching frogs, or writing stories? Are there any aspects of your
hobbies you can bring to your world today?
I've listed some hobby resources below to help you get some more
ideas for your ideal hobby.
