Hobbies
Everyday I spend an hour working out in the gym. It's the best part of my day as I get to improve my physical and mental strength and discipline. This by extension makes me a better worker in my job. In my off-hours I enjoy reading and learning languages to train my brain in other ways than just the gym!
