About this wheel
New hobbies can improve mood, build skills and expand your social circle. But long lists of options and fear of picking the "wrong" one stop many of us before we start.
A hobby wheel lowers the stakes. You are not committing for life, only for a week or a month of trying. If you like it, keep going. If not, spin again.
How to use it
- Add a few hobbies you are curious about and remove any you cannot do.
- Spin once.
- Spend one hour this week trying it, with a free or cheap first step.
- Decide whether to continue, adjust or try the next hobby.
- Remove hobbies you have tried to keep it fresh.
Ways to customise it
- Make a budget list: free, low cost, equipment needed
- Make an indoor-only list for winter
- Make a social list of hobbies you can do with others
- Add *2 to hobbies you already feel drawn to
Tips
Start small. Borrow equipment, watch a beginner video or join a free class. You do not need to buy anything until you know you enjoy it.
Give it a fair trial. Most skills feel awkward at the start, so try at least three sessions before deciding.
