A hobby is not a side hustle

Earning a part-time income may overlap with our interests, but it’s important to develop hobbies with no financial motives attached. The pleasure of engaging in a hobby should be enough without the added stress of deadlines, demands, and accommodation.

A hobby disconnected from your career will likely still improve your work life. Leisure time not only helps refuel us for a busy work life but engaging in deep focus helps us to become better at focusing.
