Summarize the following:
Look online for classes offered by community centers or a nearby college if you want to take up a hobby that you love. Hobbies allow you to take a break from your professional life and make for a great outlet for stress. You are never too old to attend a class that interests you. Hobbies can include singing, dance, learning an instrument, or taking an art class. Refrain from making excuses and practice regularly. Life can become busy, and it's easy to put the hobby you love on the backburner for more important things. Try scheduling your day out and lessen the time you spend on other tasks so you can fit in room for your hobby. Eliminate other time-consuming tasks like watching TV or surfing the web and dedicate that time to your hobby instead. Friends and family may be critical of your new hobby if it's different than what you normally do, or they don't agree with it. Don't let this persuade you not to pursue the hobby you love. Don't listen to people that say you can't do it, and take the time to learn about your hobby and get better at it. Don't quit a hobby just because other people think it's silly. If it makes you happy and you genuinely enjoy doing it, stick with it. If you are new to your hobby, or you haven't been practicing it for a long time, there's a good chance you'll need to get better at it. Most people won't be proficient at a task without being given the time to practice. Age may also play a factor in your new hobby and could prevent you from doing it well if it's physical and you're out of shape or have health conditions. Evaluate yourself honestly, and set goals that are realistic to your abilities. If you are older, you may have a decrease in functional ability. Instead of setting unattainable goals, consider your body and aim for something that you can accomplish.

Summary:
Search online and sign up for classes in your area. Make time in your schedule to dedicate to your hobby. Don't let criticism take away from your happiness. Be realistic with your goals.
