I was thinking the other day that studying programming has eaten up into much of my free time, I do it because I love it but I've thought about whether or not there's an issue with working on all day on something and then doing it for fun. Now I have all the above bases covered: Amazing family that I always give priority to over coding for fun, happy with the things I'm working on, reasonable financial health etc.. But I realized that one thing I would like is to one day experience mastery of a skill set. Success is not mastery, and there's no quick path there. I realized that maybe I'll spend less hours playing games, reading novels or just chilling, but I would like to one day have the life experience of having truly mastered a skill, and I think I would gladly give up a few side hobbies, video games, and great novels for that.
