Hobbies

Get involved in work and activities that you enjoy. When you’re engrossed in work or hobbies that interest you, you leave yourself less time to dwell on mistakes or engage in negative self-talk. Participating in an activity you enjoy may help give you a sense of identity and accomplishment outside your family or career. You also stand to raise your self-esteem by making friends who share your interests and enjoy spending time with you. Whether you enjoy sewing, stamp collecting, or golfing, a hobby gives you one more forum for achievement.
