We don't want to leave it until it's too late though.
The biggest antidote to role enmeshment is hobbies.
If you don't have something that you can genuinely say like you're passionate about and enjoy doing beyond your job or beyond what needs to be done to survive,
Your likelihood of burnout is dramatically higher.
We've all heard the statistic that you need five hobbies, one to stay fit, one to build knowledge, one to spark creativity, one to keep you sane, and one to make you money.
Just choose two of those categories to begin with.
And if you're struggling with what you'd actually enjoy, or if you find that typical hobbies are a bit boring to you, I think the essential route to finding what you would personally find interesting is going back to what you loved as a child.
When you just had the most purest kind of curiosity, desire, and interest.
Also, don't be afraid to abandon a hobby and be in a hobby dating stage.
I love running.
I love spending like three hours on a Sunday jogging around London or wherever I am.
But I know for a lot of people, like that sounds awful.
That sounds like there's nothing worse.
The point is to enjoy it.
And if you're not, make a list of like 25 different things you want to try and go at it.
Make it a priority.
Once a week, you're going to try, you're going to date each of these hobbies until you find a match.
Basically, what this is doing is outsourcing your identity a little bit more, outsourcing your passion to something beyond work.
In a similar vein, have specific things that you do each night of the week or at least some nights of the week.
In particular, I would say like two to three days per week, you should have something on where you're not just going home and you're going and doing things.
