delirium 4,237 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 I used to feel weird spending so much time exploring the things that I enjoyed because my mind was always drifting back to all of the "work" that I could be doing. But screw it, if I enjoy something and it brings me joy, why should I feel bad about doing it in my free time? Why can't I be proud of the work that I put into it? Some people's hobbies have even changed their career path. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lovely_me 3,237 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 No, but several ppl telling me this straight in my face, including my psychologist (!). kpop, inet, updating Threads (i am OP) its all waste of time for them and not worth it. It feels so downgrade, so much disrespect forward me.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my hobby is the only way to make me happy right now, so I'm gonna keep doing it since the people that told me that never offer any alternatives.

Daddy Marx 4,825 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Sometimes I do, with things like dancing, art, volleyball, and singing and all of that kinda stuff, because I'm not very good at it But then when this happens, some of my favourite BTS quotes come to mind, like: “Living without passion is like being dead.†― Jeon Jungkook “Go on your path, even if you live for a day.†― Park Jimin “Effort makes you. You will regret someday if you don’t do your best now. Don’t think it’s too late but keep working on it. It may take time, but there’s nothing that gets worse due to practising. So practise. You may get depressed, but its evidence that you are doing good.†― Jeon Jungkook and then I remember that it's because of my hobbies that I actually feel alive and full, and even if at the moment I may not be great at them, by continuing to do them, I will get better, and then all that fulfillment I get from them now, we have increased exponentially in the future, so then I'm like ehh screw it and continue with my hobbies anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiz109 1,532 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 No tbh, they are what keep me calm when I stress out. I picked up some old lady skills to keep my brain occupied. Crochet, Cross stitch Jigsaw puzzles Reading coloring drawing I'd pick up knitting too if I had more time to learn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caffe 1,650 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Sadly I do find my hobbies waste of time sometimes.. Mostly because I've been raised to believe that unless it's exercise or related to arts, then it's nothing special.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
