Hobbies
One likes girls, the other likes muffins. This slogan could be set in stone for hobby, hobbies, or even one foreign word, hobbies.
Whatever we do in our leisure time, we do it with passion, purely amateurishly, and proportionately expensive. We invest considerable resources in our hobby. Amateur radio operators invest in radios, recording equipment, and antennas. Sculptors equip their workshops with newer and better machines and tools. The same can be said of welders and manufacturers. We are only paying big money for small results.
I knew an auto mechanic who built an ATV (all-terrain vehicle) for his son and enjoyed continuously improving it. The car already had everything. Safe frame, speed limiter, rev limiter. Remote engine cutoff. Just in case my son lost control and went where he shouldn\’t have.
To help the boy become the biggest man he could be, he equipped the seat for his buddies. It had a radio, and the dashboard had all sorts of features. It even had a moving display. There was too much of everything.
I once met a friend in a pub. When I asked him about it, he had given his son a buggy for his birthday. His grandfather had given him an ordinary cell phone. It was very ordinary and cost a couple of kronas. Guess what the boy did? He was so happy that he almost cried and ran into his room with the phone. He took one look at the buggy.
Is this the result of your hobby? I think the product is definitely more successful.
To devote oneself to something, to create something, to invent something, to build something is a very noble activity. It awakens primitive desires for knowledge, for understanding, and for competition. After all, competition is the main engine, the reason we sit up late at night in the workshop, on the radio, or behind the controls of various machines
