I don’t find hobbies to be a replacement for work. Maybe it depends on the hobby but many hobbies are solo. work, or work that I enjoy, is not. Accomplishing things with others and for others has its on motivation for me at least
Of course maybe your hobbies or your dad’s hobbies are social. when someone says “hobbies” to me I generally think of things done mostly alone and I know for me, that’s not enough
- OJFord 10mo agoThat's definitely just how you're thinking of it - any team sport can be a hobby, for a start.
- socalgal2 10mo agoYes there are hobbies that are socially. Many are not and will not sub for work
- tock 10mo agoHobbies are just anything you truly enjoy doing that isn't mandated by your job. If you would continue doing your job even if your employer drops your salary to 0, then yeah your job is your hobby too! It is up to the individual to figure out what works for them.
- socalgal2 10mo agoGood point. if work is your hobby you retire then you aren’t at work and will find it harder to get the same satisfaction
