Episode 99 – Hobbies with Casey Freeman

Casey and I delve into the world of our many, many hobbies.  Casey's definition of a hobby is that it has to cost you money, it might be a bit irresponsible, it should be fun, you should enjoy doing it, but that doesn't mean that you're good at it.  Another important factor is the ability to fail.  I couldn't agree more.

 I discuss keeping a picture that I painted that's just horrible.  I keep it because I wanted to prove to myself as a visual reminder that you can do things that you're not good at, you can do things that you don't like. It's still a reminder that you lived, and that's something; that's really my why of doing some of these things. I can't stand the competition of people, or the comparison of other people.  I'm not competitive. I know people say I am, but I'm really not. Deep down, I'm really not competitive at all.  I do think that at times, there's nothing wrong with saying I went to go do this hobby with my friends, I was terrible at it, had a good time, this looks awful, but I'm still going to display it because it's a part of my life. I'm willing to put myself out there.  I'm willing to be embarrassed at how awful I perform.  I don't care, because I'm not comparing myself to anybody else. What I'm doing is living my best life.

 If you find something that you really enjoy doing, it's not your job, you spend money, if you're good at it that's a bonus and if you're not good at it, that's ok too.  Do what you enjoy!
