Being an entrepreneur can be pretty intense and all-consuming, so I'm curious—what do you all do in your free time? How do you unwind and recharge when you're not working on your business? Would love to hear about hobbies, activities, or routines that help you relax!

    How do you unwind as an entrepreneur?

    1. Wine making.  Incredibly simple and easy to get into, but difficult to master.   Very passive but punctuated every few weeks with something you need to do.

    2. Exercise. A short morning or evening hike.

      It allows for reflection, mental organization, and physical movement.

      I sit in front of a computer all day though, so YMMV.

      Bought a lake house. Just go on the boat, water skiing. I have a couple nice cars that I drive on weekends also.

      Daily driver is a shit box, don’t want to look rich.

    4. Spend time with family, go the gym, Fortnite, reading. To the folks that laugh at the idea of rest, you need time for yourself or you’ll burn out. If it’s impossible to make time for yourself you need to manage your tasks better.

    5. No_Yogurtcloset_8029 on

      Spend time with family and friends. If I really can’t get the mind to settle I go for a spirited drive down some back roads.

    6. I usually swim, or do something intense, like flying a practice plane or the shooting range. But something less intense could be like boxing man, after training I feel so peacefully tired and relaxed it’s so good

    7. Advanced programming consulting for a living. So i build Adult lego models, sometimes I will take an early Friday and just go play with Lego. I actually don’t know where to put them all now.

      Very relaxing and gets the other parts if the brain working.

      It also gives you a sense of accomplishment after 16 hours or 2/3 weekends to complete.
