Kennysplash Posted July 28, 2024 Posted July 28, 2024 These days it can be hard to have the extra time to play. I hold two jobs and I work on weekends too. By the time I get home I am extremely tired. The little time I have I use it to clean up the house and do my laundry, before I rush to work again. If you are the busy type, how do you find time to play?
Button Posted July 29, 2024 Posted July 29, 2024 I'm a very busy individual. So, I try to make time to play games by making sure to schedule gaming sessions in my calendar.
Lens Posted July 29, 2024 Posted July 29, 2024 I so much believe in self-care, and gaming is definitely a part of that for me. Sometimes I wake up a bit earlier each day to play some games.
Knight Barida Posted July 29, 2024 Posted July 29, 2024 I am always focused and motivated to win whenever I play games. What always made me happier was also being able to play with my friends. Playing with them help me build great memories.
killamch89 Posted July 29, 2024 Posted July 29, 2024 It depends on your schedule. I work for myself mostly so I dedicate time to game although there are times my schedule can become extremely hectic.

You must be a game enthusiast because prioritising gaming when your schedule allows it is great 👍. That's a flexible schedule.

It can really be a challenge when you have 9 to 5 job, with almost an hour commute.
Scorpion Posted September 30, 2024 Posted September 30, 2024 I totally understand that struggle! I try to carve out short gaming sessions during breaks or on days off when possible.
Bizdustry Posted September 30, 2024 Posted September 30, 2024 I think everyone will find this problem as soon as they reach adulthood. Working long shifts, then having other commitments leaves very little or no time for hobbies. And the hobby includes video gaming. However it’s important to find time for yourself even if it’s 30 minutes as it allows you to enjoy life
Button Posted October 2, 2024 Posted October 2, 2024 Juggling work, commitments, and personal time with gaming can be so challenging. What i do is schedule gaming sessions for myself and it work just fine.

That's a flexible schedule. I have to prioritize what's important. I love gaming but self employment requires discipline in order for it to be sustainable.

You need to execute the important tasks first and then unwind with games, probably after completing the important work. Games are there for the enjoyment and not to override what's more important.

I prioritize self-care by setting aside just 30 minutes for gaming. I don't want games to take over other important areas of my life.

I allocate time for gaming and other hobbies and that's how I was able to achieve work-life balance.
