Hobbies are such a great way to get us distracted from our stressful lives, while also having us doing something active that brings us joy while we do it. Without hobbies, life would be boring! Selecting your own hobby, whether it is something you are good at already or not so great at, it is important to make sure you're occupying your time.
Is this something I am genuinely interested in?
Will this activity bring me joy?
Can I efficiently accomplish this with the materials I have?
Is this hobby going to de-stress me or stress me?
