It is always a plus point if you have a hobby.
In a general aspect, initially it was felt (hope I am not going boring here) that having a hobby has some psychological effect in you and you are able to live better. But then it has been again and again proved by scientific studies.
Here is what I have to say about Hobbies.
But before everything, the definition, Hobbies (according to me) is the thing that makes you feel good, when everything is going upside down. It is a thing you usually do, when you don't have anything to do, or the things that you do when you fell that noting else is working. Eg. Playing Max Pine, Age of Empire, or Age of Mythology. Watching Cricket Match, or talking in to the words of CEO's BULGY JUMPING, SCUBA DIVING.
Even if you don't have a hobby, you must try to learn and make on, because, what happens, that in this competitive world, there would be situations when you won't be feeling comfortable, find your own world, and learn how to beat stress. On a long turn your work will give its rewards.
Now about MY HOBBIES,
I love reading, though I am not a fast reader, so if you ask me how many books have I read, the answer wont cross a small number, but ask me about the book I have read and what exactly have I learnt from it, I will never disappoint you.
Here you can find something that I found interesting about a few books.
MOVIES, that exactly was the first hobby I got. I loved watching Star Movies, when I was in school, and precisely Science Fiction moved me heavily, but now the interest have switched to critically acclaimed movies, and that goes for bollywood too. What is the best thing that I would be looking for in a movie first is it's script, then some good actors who can actually perform and give justice to the script.
Back to the square one and BOOKS, the first book, which lead me to this hobby is 'NANO TARLO' a Gujarati book meaning a small star, and the author is Father Wallace, a man from Spain, who settled in India and accepted Indian Citizenship. The best thing that sparked me was he knew better my culture, my traditions. I am really thankful to him for making me acquainted with such a good hobby.
