Hey, so as the title says: How do you guys balance gaming and other hobbies in your freetime? :) Aside from Gaming i also like many other things like Reading, drawing, coding, ... But usually when i get home from work I just turn on my PC and game until going to sleep. I really wanna read more books and so on but usually i cant motivate myself and then just game all the time.

Any tips how you guys keep the balance between hobbies? :)

Outside of building my PC, gaming is the cheapest of my hobbies so it's easy to pick over the others!

My other hobbies include automotive (I have a spare motor I'm rebuilding, and a motorcycle I'm fixing), firearms (sport shooting and modifying/accesorizing), and self-hosting (4 separate physical servers with multiple VMs or Podman/Docker totaling over 200TB storage)

Gaming can also take slices of time here and there, the others require more money and larger windows of time.
