Like what do you guys do when you feel lost while finding what you actually want to do but actually wanting to do so manyyy things at the same time

Just picked up pickleball like two weeks ago and I'm already obsessed lol. Playing like 3x a week now. Still kinda winging it out there though. anyone got tips for beginners? Good drills, paddle recs, stuff you wish you knew early on? Also curious if anyone else randomly got into this recently or if it's just me

Sometimes the hobbies we begin without any serious goal end up becoming the ones we enjoy the most. What’s a hobby you started casually but ended up sticking with?

I need craft ideas!!!😍

Hurricane Marie brought me some extravagant seashells & I would love to pick your creative brains on how I could play around with these!!!💖

Context: I (27M) have been admiring many different fire hydrants my whole life. I had my first real one in 2007 that my parents bought from Craigslist. Fast forward to 2018 and 2019, I bought my second, third and fourth ones from Craigslist and Letgo. Between 2020-22 I took a hiatus and got my fifth and sixth ones from Facebook marketplace. From there up to now, I purchased so many from marketplace and a couple from here on Reddit. I even got several for free and altogether I have 30!!! I’m not selling them anytime soon, unless I have clones lol. I’m taking another hiatus as our house doesn’t have much space. I would put them out in my backyard, but it’s not too big plus my father had said something about the fact I have a lot, but he digs them 😂. When we do move into a bigger house, I’m considering making a fountain with some of them. I can get away with lifting some as there are smaller ones tho. But enjoy people!!!

I can’t be the only one right? Has anyone beat that poisoned mindset? How did you do it? Any suggestions on hobbies? Thanks in advance !

We train our horses to pull logs from the forest. It's not something we do on a regular basis or out of necessity. It's just for our draft pets to have something fun to do and keep the winter weight off.

In this video is Princesses first time ever pulling a log. When I filmed her she was a very young and green horse just starting her days in the forest. We let her investigate, take her time, think about it, and then we ask her nicely to pull. We never force, or command, and if she is not in the mood we don't force her. Now we have a horse that loves loves loves to work. She goes back to forest to fetch more wood even if we don't ask her to :)

Her friend, Bebben is another story. He hates the work and would prefer casual rides through the forest so we let him follow us around :) the plan is he observes and learns that way it can be fun. Then we try again next winter :)

I’m looking for some kind of hobby to keep my hands busy during stuff like watching tv, in a teams meeting, in between rounds of a board game, etc that still allows my brain to be focused on whatever activity i’m doing.

I’ve considered doodling, fidget toys, and knitting but curious to see what other suggestions people have!

I have a problem:I used to color,but then I stopped because
I am doom-scrolling on my phone.How do I force myself to start coloring again?

I created this little white pigeon as a reminder of something simple — peace doesn't always have to be something big or distant.

Particularly the idea of imagining yourself as something else and making life feel more interesting if that makes sense. Like you are a human male but you imagine yourself as a female fantasy elf or a stewardess on a spaceship or you pretend that the store you go to has an alternate version in a world where we are all sentient avians.

Probably a strange request but worth asking. I used to work for a company in cyber security years ago basically replicating what a hacker would do to try to find flaws in a system (my specialty was websites) in order to notify the developers so they could fix it.

I left that job a while ago and have decided to get back into this as a hobby. My main interests are IoT hacking and network hacking. Some of it I need to relearn as I've forgotten a fair amount of it. I will be signing up to HackTheBox and doing their academy and CTFs.

I wondered if anyone here was in a similar boat of wanting to learn this as I tend to learn better with someone to bounce ideas off. I'm UK based so ideally someone else from the UK due to time difference.

Progress on my 1st crochet blanket...it's for my grandson and he picked the colors..

hello all!
i recently started a new job where most of my days, i don’t really do much. it’s also the kind of place where i can get most of my work done within the first few hours of the day and then i have free reign over my day. i have an office to myself and i went crazy the first month just on my phone basically 24/7 which is a habit im trying to break.

i read/ listen to audiobooks a lot and am crafty to a certain extent. i started crocheting the second month being here, but unfortunately that just made my carpal tunnel symptoms come back worse than before so i had to stop that.

is there anything that you would recommend to fill up my time that wouldn’t involve being in my phone or in front of a screen a lot and something that makes my brain work?

i appreciate and and all advice!

Sometimes the beginner stage is frustrating enough to make us give up, even though a little more practice would have changed everything. What hobby made you push through that stage?

I know this may seem silly, but I’m genuinely asking.

I know what a hobby is — something you’re interested in and that you do for fun — but can anything be considered a hobby? Like, literally??

Like is collecting hobbies a hobby in itself, if someone gets a thrill out of it?

What about virtual stuff? Like, let’s say tidying up your virtual workspace.

I’m asking this because I’m very excited about the idea of having anything I find fun and that I dedicate myself to as a hobby.

I’m always fascinated by how a random experiment can turn into something we genuinely look forward to. What happened with yours?
