I know that I need to get to the shop this weekend. Unfinished work is piling up, and frankly, there aren't any deadlines, so why care?
Ah, yes, the dangers of doing nothing...
In life, we have deadlines to meet. Work. Things that HAVE to get done. In my shop, I am the poster boy of procrastination. I finish things on my own timelines, when I want to, and sometimes if I want to.
Yep, it's a double edged sword...
When you have nothing pushing you to finish, things don't get done. I can sweep tomorrow. I can rearrange the next day. I can ... but I don't. What happens over time is you surround yourself with your own failure. You underline every last single thing you've ever done wrong in big red flashing letters. "LOOK AT ME - I'm not done yet!"
With a foot of snow covering my woodpile, I think I'll get a few projects off the shelves this weekend. I hear a bench top I was fabricating calling me now...
