Over the past few years, I’ve massively switched my Playtime from coding and working on side projects to gaming. I think I’m close to hitting the saturation point.
Playtime for me has evolved over the years from binging TV, to working on side projects, to gaming. It’s been part of my personal evolution. I don’t mind switching my recreational activities, but I do mind hitting a saturation point, ’cause that means that it’s time for me to find something new.
I think it’s time to switch it up a little.
Maybe, I could pick something new and cut down on my gaming time slowly. I still do want to play video games, but I just don’t want to play as much. I have a ton of things I need to learn and there’s a ton of other side projects lying deep in limbo. Some projects are complete and just waiting for their corresponding blog posts. Some, I’ve dropped the idea of open sourcing because they missed the perfect rollout time.
Anyway, you get the idea. It’s just that there’s too much going on and I am thinking of not doing too much and just allot my recreational time to a focused hobby. I miss working on creative things, so that is something I’m craving right now.
I will try out various things over the coming couple of months and see what sticks, in that, what I enjoy as a sustainable hobby. It doesn’t have to be forever, I just need something new for a good 1-2 years.
I will report back here in a couple of months. Maybe by mid or end of November. Fingers crossed!
