The Psychology of your 20s · 423. You need more hobbies...here's how you do it · 30 May 2026 podcast

There is a lot that you can do.

You might just need to invest a little bit of time to get things off the ground and to feel excited by it.

And that kind of brings me to my next barrier, which is a lack of motivation.

This is probably the hardest one to overcome.

If a lack of inspiration is the most common, a lack of motivation is the hardest.

I think if you're in this position, you need to treat the next month as like an exploration phase for you.

So like set a personal challenge, set a goal to just try heaps of new things, even if you don't have high expectations.

make it like a way to socialize like instead of drinks go and like get a jewelry making set or like go and get a puzzle do a board games night at a pub go for a hike you don't have to commit to anything

All you're required to do is to have a taste, is to just have a little palate cleanse, is to just fill your days with activities rather than just lounging passive consumption.

On another note, returning to your old hobbies often does start with just remembering why they brought you so much joy in the first place.

We can forget that.

It's very easy to lose touch with the things you love when life gets busy or when other priorities take over.

but hobbies are a form of self-care.

Think about how great you always feel afterwards.

Even if you have to kind of like mentally drag yourself to the starting line, be like, OK, I'm going to let myself watch TV in 20 minutes.

But before I do that, the same way that I make time to exercise, I make time to clean my house.

I make time to talk to my friends.

I'm going to make time to do my hobbies as a part of my hygiene routine, as a part of my wellness routine, etc.

This would look at this perfect segue into talking about a lack of time because that is another big conundrum, another big problem that we hear a lot.

I hate to say it and I'm going to be very gentle when I say it, but we can always make time for what we care about.
