Drawing changed the way I see the world, making everything beautiful based on the lines/play of light and shadow/transitions of color etc.
What else is like that? (more examples of what I mean inside)
Graphic design: never see an ad/banner without noticing font/color choices again
Parkour: View buildings/fences/benches etc as possible props, start noticing the connections between objects/distances between them
Writing: Sudden acquisition of inner narrator in head, describing how the events happening to you could be processed into a story
(more of a stretch, but:
Running: Discovered lots of areas I'd never have otherwise visited
Dance: My first time learning my body could be taught new abilities it didn't have before
on the other hand:
Reading is too obvious to list, expanding your worldview isn't really a "side effect" as much as an expected result. I feel like meditation has the same problem, explicitly oriented towards changing your thoughts as part of the hobby itself.
But maybe something like learning a language, where even though the language itself is a non-side-effect expansion, the exposure to a different culture's way of constructing syntax/idioms/etc make you learn more than just the language on the way.) |
