how to stop python program when time.sleep() is in progressing

Question

i made a bot that control my mouse and my keyboard to make the games im playing easier but somehow i can't stop that program easily... i made a loop with condition when i press enter the program will be stopped but the time.sleep() progressing dnt allow that happening, however i can't make an integer condition because i want my program unstoppable i mean it must stop when i press a key on my keyboard for example:

import keyboard
import time

while True:
    print('hello world')
    time.sleep(3)
    if keyboard.is_pressed('enter'):
        break

i know that i can hold 'enter' button for 3 secs but my real program has time.sleep() duration bigger than 1 min that i can't hold enter all that time, is there any other code like time.sleep() i can use to solve my problem ?

Instead of a 3-second sleep how about 30 short 0.1-second naps? Food for thought.

import keyboard
import time

enter_pressed = 0
while True:
    print('hello world')
    time.sleep(0.1)
    if keyboard.is_pressed('enter'):
        enter_pressed += 1
    else:
        enter_pressed = 0

    if enter_pressed >= 10:
        break # enter pressed for 1 sec
