Hobby: its great importance in any person's life!

-


I just ran into the corner of their performance when I started playing. It wasn't the playing that caught my attention so much as the manner of playing it. Watching it directly is very different from watching it in a video, for example.
Speed, flow, harmony, that inhuman amount of motion control made it sound as if violin was part of her body. How can a person reach such limits by his body?

When I got home I searched for more information about her. She is 25 years old and started playing at the age of 3. That means she's been playing for 22 years. It may have started as a hobby, but now it is all that she does in her life. Continuity is the password, although it is not a secret. The same applies not only to physical skills, but also to mental skills.

I mentioned this story because there is a deeper point that I would like to make. In our country, the only concern of parents is for their children's academic success. Having a hobby not related to studying is an insignificant thing to do without, or even a waste of time. But is this really optimal?

of course not. The importance of having a hobby from a young age - regardless of its type - is not only limited to developing the mental or physical skills of the individual, but also in the fact that it opens up more areas for him to choose. The traditional academic system - everywhere - treats humans as machines that are programmed to play one specific role. What's worse is that the coding process takes an enormous number of years, on average, 22 to 24 years. Being completely immersed in this system not only means that the options available to the individual are limited and predetermined, but it means that he will lose the ability to choose in the first place. It is not surprising to find that many young people - after graduation in particular - have no idea what they want to do with their lives.

Hobbies can be anything from drawing and sports to building robots. Having hobbies means having alternative life paths to choose from. It becomes clearer when we look at the concept of a hobby in Japan. While a hobby - in our popular sense - is that thing that we do "if time is available", a hobby in Japan is something that you "devote" time, effort and money to do. It is something that you take very seriously like you do with your job, for example, with the difference that you do it because you want it, and not because it is imposed on you. No wonder, then, that hobbies often turn into an additional source of income, or even a job.

best gift ever for kids!

I think one of the best things you can do for your children is to push them to take up a sport at a young age (say, three years), and to make every effort to make sure they continue to do it afterwards. Yes, you can start exercising at any time, and yes, you will get its benefits if you stick, but permanent practice from the beginning has something else to do.   It is not just about the immediate health and mental benefits (which need to be covered by many topics), but that sport literally turns into a "lifestyle" that may affect all of a person's choices in his life afterward.   The simplest thing is that an athlete will instinctively move away from things that may harm his body, and thus the likelihood of him turning to smoking or drugs is much less than others.   This is just an example. What triggered this matter in my head was a conversation that I had with a colleague of the lab days ago - who is Japanese - when he mentioned in the midst of his speech that he had be
