Would you consider swimming to be a self-involved hobby?

ande
Would you consider swimming to be a self-involved hobby? I read an article that said. "He may be a workaholic, a womanizer, hooked on TV, caught in addictions or self-involved hobbies." THE BOOMERANG RELATIONSHIP Passivity, Irresponsibility and Resulting Partner Anger

  • Definition of hobby (not the horse)from Dictionary.com: "an activity or interest pursued for pleasure or relaxation and not as a main occupation..." Well, I sure don't make money at it so it's not my occupation.... Definition of self-interest from same source: "regard for one's own interest or advantage, esp. with disregard for others." Well, I coach kids, and you have to regard others if you hope to be an effective coach, so.... I guess I don't see swimming as a "self-interested hobby"
