Reignite La Passion

In the past couple of months, I have found it difficult to get out into the shop and build something. One would think not having enough time would be the factor, as I see that is what most people struggle with. When I don’t have a commission I find it difficult to start building. Am I the only the only one who struggles with this? I seen a lot of things that I want to build, but I just can’t seem to ever get myself there. Am I lazy, do I procrastinate, is it fear of material going to waste? And it’s not because I don’t enjoy the hobby. The times when I do get out there I’m at my happiest most blissful self. As happy as I am in the shop, a cloud looms over my head when it comes to attempting a build.

With all this being said have decided to change it up a bit and take a different approach. Like mention before, whenever I seem to have a commission, it takes over and it’s all I look forward to. It’s all I can think of in my spare time. I don’t believe it’s the money, thou it is nice that I’m getting paid to create things. I think it’s the fact that what I’m building is going to be useful to someone or to serve a purpose. Whatever it is, there’s a reason for it, something that gives meaning to the build.

With that in mind, I wanted to explore the world of content creation. With the intention of my builds turning into a blog post or possible future videos. I have a few ideas for a series and skill building oriented videos. Thus giving meaning and in my mind, a justification for the build. As to what I will do with the projects I build, well that’s still to be determined. Hopefully sell them haha.

These are my aspirations for the remaining of the year. Now all that remains is sort my ideas, plan them out and execute. Looking forward to my future endeavors.
