Do you have the similar experiences? Your parents often feel stressed and sometimes have difficulty controlling their temper (脾气); you study 7 days a week and find it difficult to make progress no matter how hard you try. Life always seems to be tiring.
Is there any way out of the tiring life? Believe it or not, the solution is you may need time for your hobbies. Research has shown that people who have hobbies are generally healthier, and feel much happier. Having a hobby may be even more important to people who lead very full and busy lives.
Many people say a sport as a hobby keeps them fitter, helps them manage their anger, and puts them in a much better mood. As a result, this influences their quality (质量) of life, work and family time Hobbies provide us with a chance to get social. Getting social can make us feel more supported. Hobbies can also bring pleasure. Think about the simple joy you get from travelling to new places. Further, hobbies may actually improve our work performance as they improve our decision-making skills, creativity and confidence.
What if you are too busy to have a hobby? Finding the time for your hobby is really important. You may have to give up watching TV, force yourself to turn off the computer, or even let your homework wait for a while. Make your hobby a priority (优先). Set a goal and get a friend to help you stay with a hobby.
“All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy” is a famous saying. This may be quite true, so make sure you find time for yourself to relax.
