Could you please share few and do you have enough time to enjoy your hobby in timely manner or you miss the opportunity due to project's over loading? Saving Changes...
I always find a way to make time for my hobbies. If you don't, it is hard to decompress and work at your best level. I enjoy reading, shooting/hunting, fishing (weather permitting), kayaking, and crocheting a lot. Really just having some me time any time I can is great!
Kimberly, that's fantastic you're so organized, like that Saving Changes...
I find time for my hobbies, somehow. They include amateur radio, flying (mostly single engine land IFR), motorcycling, traveling, and enjoying the water.
Dorian, very great taste you have, I prefer rotorcraft (Helicopter) over fixed-wing aircraft. Saving Changes...
Just returned from a week on the Isle of Skye, no WiFi, no cell signal for miles... had only family, wildlife , natural beauty and a camera for company.
PM became irrelevant, and I became a palpably different person, hobbies and detachment are vital for balancing life!!

Absolutely! I didn't hear the phrase "digital detox" until my 40's, my children use it in their teens!
But if we learn anything in life and in being a PM, it is that adaptation is one of the keys to continued success.
Well you know that old saying about the shoemaker's children have no shoes... :-)
I tend to just work on whatever comes to mind that day. But self-imposed deadlines are when things really get done. Reminds me of Cesar Abeid and his "Life is a Project" approach.
On the other hand, a hobby can sometimes be a way to have less structure for a while. :-)

Awww, I was hoping someone else enjoyed scuba diving. I'm underwater nearly every weekend. It is one of those spots where everything you see on a regular day no longer exists. In list form:
Scuba
Cooking
Wine tasting (at small wineries especially in the central California coastal areas)
Anything outdoors.
