Getting jacked and reading old books are examples of hobbies. If these sound strange and foreign to you, you should look into them!
Hobbies are activities that you do because you want to, not because you are forced to. (Pause for fellow Americans to catch their breath...) Hobbies have the potential to help you enjoy life, to have something to look forward to, get excited about, and hopefully even improve yourself or broaden your horizons in some way.
You don't have to make money at it. You don't have to be "efficient" at it. You don't even have to be any good! But if it's something you care about, there's a strong chance you'll end up pretty good at it.
My example is along the lines of the meme of the linkedin profile that ends ... -> Senior Architect at Microsoft -> Goose farmer.
I'm a middle aged computer nerd software engineer, typing this in LibreWolf on Linux. 100% on-brand Lemmy user, lol. But I am a science & nature nerd first, and I have a distinct memory of a divide in my high school science classes: I gravitated towards physics and especially electronics and mechanical design, and I really disliked studying chemistry. My chemistry teacher was awesome and shared lots of college stories to prepare us, and that left me notably terrified of organic chemistry on top of the general dislike.
So it might not be a surprise to find that I am into carpentry, woodworking, and home automation, given some of my past. And my love of animals has led to lots of pets, including a pond in the back yard. The surprise? I kinda fucking love organic chemistry as a hobby! What is your Oxidation-Reduction Potential, babyyy?
