No matter how hard I try, I can't spend more than 4 hours a week given all the other commitments.
If it was more than a day's work it wouldn't be a hobby it would be a part-time job.
Too much.. but then sleep is highly overrated.
The real trick is to find a job which is your hobby :-)
I spend about 5 to 6 hours a week on mine. But, I am trying and hoping to make my hobby project my full time job.
About 3-4 hours per day on weekdays, a good 6+ hours a day on weekends.
I don't have a hobby project. If I start something up I mean business.
I tend to do it in bursts, but it will average out at a couple of hours a week. Sometimes I wish I had more time to devote to it, but other times I simply can't face more work-away-from-work.
I have a nasty habit of looking in on a project last thing at night; just a peek, thinking about what to do next. Next thing you know it's the early hours of the morning and you are already halfway through stage 3. I think I do my best work at this time ironically!
im curious, what do you spend 3-4 hours a day on? i need a new hobby that takes up a lot of time, money is no object
cheers
I have a wife and 2 young kids. Hobby projects are on hold indefinately.
