Balancing work and hobbies. It’s wonderful to have a guesser! The guessing life, ed.
Hello!
Are you doing “guess activity”? I had my first “guesser” at the end of last year! Since then, I have been incorporating “guess activity” into my life in addition to “hobby time”. The problem is “time”. Since I am working, I cannot spend unlimited time. On the other hand, if I chose not to work, I would not be able to do the guessing activities (and I would not be able to make a living in the first place)…
I have always enjoyed playing games and watching videos. When it comes to subs, I have about 4 different services depending on the time of year. I don’t have enough eyes…I’m not very good in this area. Even if I organize them regularly, something happens and I end up joining again. happens again, and I end up joining again.
However, if you are not good at making time for these hobbies and thrust activities, you will not get the time you should want to spend. In other words, I realized after I ran out of time that I needed to make time well by myself.

A sudden “guess”. Time is short!
This is what you call a “guess!” One day, I suddenly had a “guess” in my life. It was a dance and vocal group, and I was surprised that one day I would fall in love with an artist of this genre. Being a geek by nature, I wanted to start with the past. For a while after I got hooked, I would spend a lot of time every day watching past videos and repeating the latest music videos over and over again.
However, it is somewhat hazy.
To begin with, I spend most of my free time on my hobbies. Even if I try to prioritize my hobbies well, I find myself playing games so much that I don’t have time to follow the information of my guesses…or watching videos so much that I can’t play games…and then I feel halfway there. I realized that I was feeling a bit bored and incomplete. It was necessary to take each of them in a well-balanced way, like eating a triangle. (Some people, on the other hand, may prefer to eat a large portion of each.)
Let’s systematically spend time on hobbies and guessing activities! That’s what I thought and did.
Not only work, but also hobbies are put on the calendar.
The first step in planning is visualization! That is why we created a calendar for our hobbies. I display it together with my work calendar.
My guess is that the supply (that the information will be available) is usually on weekday nights and holiday afternoon to evening. This is good because it doesn’t cover my work, but sometimes I don’t know what is happening on which days. In such cases, it is helpful to write down the schedule so that it is easy to understand. It also changes the way I feel, like, “I have an insta-live tonight, so I’m going to work hard… let’s get some things done quickly after (work) is over! I feel a little more motivated, and I can move quickly. This quick action is rather important and helps to create time.
With that in mind, we recommend that you put your schedule in your calendar in advance!

Light on weekdays and heavy on weekends
Some compromise is necessary. If I am busy guessing until late at night, I will have less time to sleep, which will affect my performance during the day… In order to prevent this, I change the way I spend my weekdays and weekends. I keep my weekdays “light” and my weekends “heavy”.
You may think this is an obvious thing to do, but it is quite important to be aware of this as well. For example, I enjoy 30 minutes of my daily supply on weekdays, and if it is more than 2 hours, such as watching a live video, I put it on my days off. I really want to enjoy as much as I want every day, and it would be nice if I could catch up on everything in real time, but I am an adult and I have to be patient and make adjustments. I try to keep myself in check and make sure that my life is sustainable because if my body is damaged due to an irregular lifestyle, I will not be able to enjoy what I enjoy.
Well, I don’t have enough time. Including my hobbies, I have about 3 weeks worth of holidays planned (happiness~).
I’ll share what I’m into with everyone for a bit.
I don’t think this is anything to overstep, but I do enjoy sharing this with others. I mysteriously report to mgn members from time to time that I have a new guess, that I am confused by feelings for the first time, that a new song has been released, or that I have been listening to/watching nothing but this for a long time now.
I feel a bit self-conscious about talking about it a lot, so I only bring it up once in a while in chit-chat (maybe you think it’s not once in a while), but I’m happy to share it and have people listen to me.
I have an ulterior motive of thinking that maybe if I ever go to an event, people will think, “Oh, that guess…”… It’s kind of fun to share it with people who can say it.

Enjoy a fun and easy-going guessing game.
Many mgn members like music, and some enjoy talking about movies. Not only about the activities that they are interested in, but also about the movies they liked, the songs they are listening to, the games they are into, the anime they are enjoying, and so on… There are various kinds of people.
Therefore, in terms of balancing work and hobbies, I place importance on these three points: “making time,” “deciding on time,” and “sharing time with others. I wish I had unlimited time (how many times have I told you that?), but in a situation where that is not possible, I think the key is how to make time and how to use it.
