In my case many of the things I do (reading, sailing, running, political activism, meditating, etc etc) are each far more important to me than work, which is just a (somewhat reluctantly engaged in) physical necessity. It handles the bottom level of Maslow's hierarchy. The upper levels are more than hobbys!
I realise you probably just grabbed word out of the lexicon without necessarily meaning as much by it as I'm making out. Still, I dislike the word.
I also work out about 5 days a week after some time off for an injury. I’m starting to see some of the results from that so I am getting more and more motivated to do that. My goals there are weight loss and strength building. I’ve lost 25 lbs and hope to lose another 10-20 to reach a point where I feel good about how I look.
Similarly, but not exactly the same, I go walking a fair bit.
I also have kids and all of the associated activities that come from parenting.
I have been trying to build a model truck (The plastic kind that you build and paint.) for a good 3 years with no luck.
It's flying foxes & possums in my neck of the woods ;)
