Some people like to keep everything in their life compartmentalized.
Other people allow for plenty of spillover.
For example, if you absolutely HATE the idea of taking any work home with you, then you have a rock solid boundary between your work and home life.
On the other hand, you might prefer doing stuff at home, rather than work, because home is more productive.
Then there are folks who work from home, so home and work is the same.
The same table upon which they build their empire is the same table they make a pizza on a couple hours later.
Hobbies, work, social life, dating life, neighborhood groups, all are areas that can either overlap, or be separate.
Some people are so careful about compartmentalization that they don’t like the ice cream to touch the cake or the peas the carrots.
But as humans, we also have a drive to be efficient.
If you had to take a bunch of glasses from your living room into the kitchen, you’d naturally pick up as many as you could carry.
It would be silly to make a separate trip for each glass.
The more efficient you can be, the more time and energy you can save.
Of course, everybody has their own “set point,” or balance between how much compartmentalization they have, and how much efficiency.
One way to approach this is how you view your hobbies.
If they are PURELY “pastimes” then their only purpose is to make the time go by quicker.
On the other hand, they could be VERY PRODUCTIVE.
And if you can ENJOY these hobbies as much as they benefit your skills, then you’ve found an easy path to continual improvement.
If you don’t already do so, consider the hobby of “lifelong learning.”
Meaning try to some find something that would be interesting to learn, interesting enough so you would enjoy doing it, and would also improve your skills in some area.
Fortunately, there are TONS of online learning systems, courses, videos etc.
Which allows you to be able to learn pretty much anything.
And if you also “learn how to learn” this will rapidly accelerate your progress.
