My one major non computer based hobby calls my name whenever the sun is shining. Once you’ve jumped a bike into the air multiple meters it’ll call you too.
You gotta find a hobby that gives you more dopamine and adrenaline than sitting on your butt getting digital dopamine hits.
I enjoy it when I start doing them tho
Solution to this is to have a regular routine, and build into that routine meeting up with other people, who you like, at a specific time and place which is the same each day of week, specifically to do your hobby.
It’s quite rough to get people’s schedules to line up, so it’s not always easy to do so. I appreciate the suggestion, however
Mindless media consumption is all I can manage some days. Many mornings, like today, I barely have the willpower to get myself out of bed. Making it to my computer I can manage to turn on media, but not usually play a video game
Mindless media consumption requires no energy. Hobbies usually do. Sometimes you’re just so drained you don’t even the energy for fun stuff.
People like rapid learning and advancement. It makes them feel good. The longer you are in a hobby the less often you will learn new things about it. Then you no longer feel rewarded doing the hobby.
I think people with this problem just like learning new things, and when learning gets slow with one subject, they’d rather switch to a new subject where quick learning happens again.
The way you framed this is lovely; learning is a perfectly valid hobby in and of itself. /gen
I’d like to think so too, or else I have a big problem!
I will say framing it this way makes it feel better when I move on from one hobby to another.
Also I do have a few hobbies I haven’t gotten tired of, mostly because I am still learning quickly with those despite how long I’ve been doing them.
Shitty*
Shid is funnier than shit
Makes me cringe. Sounds like a small child who thought they learned a cuss word. Or someone very afraid of being “offensive”
Pretty low bar for cringing lol
Shid and fard are funny. It’s supposed to sound kind of caveman-like
You do you. Reminds me of being a tiny child who thought the word crap was “crab” lol
But that is also funny. Gotta go take a big crab
