How to choose a hobby?
Probably each of us has his own hobby - An occupation for the soul, a favorite activity. Hobbies we devote our free time, we discuss our hobbies, communicating in clubs of interest ... Perhaps you do not have your hobby yet, then let me tell you a little about this kind of activity.
Hobbies can become completely any occupation: sports, modeling, collecting, needlework, growing plants, own zoo and many more other activities. In general, the concept of "hobby" is defined as an activity that does not generate income. But if your favorite occupation is your job, then you can earn money on a hobby.
For many people hobby is a means of combating stress. In a hobby you can realize your potential,"To take my soul". This is especially useful for those who are interested in their work exclusively in material terms and do not give it proper satisfaction.
The human need for self-realization isat the top of the so-called pyramid of needs. Equally important is the need for recognition and approval. We, the people, are social beings and the opinion of others, whatever one may say, matters to us. Achieving success in your hobby, we get so much recognition, praise. In addition, your own awareness of your successes also "inspires".
Everyone comes to his "own" kind of hobby in different ways. Who acts by the method of "trial and error", choosing the right occupation from their own experience. And someone uses the "scientific approach": he studies various types of hobbies, compares them, "tries on" himself.
In order to make it easier for you to choose a hobby, pay attention to a few key points. At first, a hobby can not be done through strength - otherwise no it is not a hobby. Choose something that you really like.
Secondly, a hobby is a certain expense item. For various materials, be it threads forknitting or paper for origami, paints, varnishes and others, money is needed. For special literature, tools for work, money is also needed. Think about how much you are willing to spend regularly on your hobby.
Very often we are influenced by fashion, there isfashion and hobby. At one time, fashion classes were: philately (collecting stamps), numismatics (collecting coins), aircraft modeling, etc. Every Soviet pioneer dreamed of collecting airplane models, and an album for stamps was considered the best gift ...
And although times have changed now, there is nothingThe shameful thing is to get carried away by such "unfashionable" occupations. If you want to try your hand at "modern" popular hobbies, then for you also all roads are open - you can do scrapbooking, decoupage, art of bonsai, painting on glass and ceramics, soap making - anything you want!
