Choosing a hobby for 2008
I have been trying to choose new hobbies for this year or re-enforce the old ones. As I resorted to my Google-Genie to help me make the choice, here are a few tips I got.
- I should be interested in it and passionate about it.
- It should be scalable, which means it should have room to grow more advanced as years pass.
- It should be repeatable - irrespective of seasons or time.
- It should be challenging. If it is too easy, then there wouldn't be any excitement to it.
- I should be able to choose to pursue my hobby both solitarily and socially.
- I should be able to earn out of it.
- It should be affordable.
- It should be portable - as I am bit of a nomad.
- It should have various sides to it - Physical, Artistic and Intellectually challenging.
- It should help me attain some sort of recognition at some level.
That's not a small list. Let me see if I can get anywhere with it.
