Does anyone else suffer from lack of motivation?
This is one of the reasons I would never try to take up furniture making as a career. The other is that I'm not particularly good at it, but let's assume that would improve with practice.
I know that everyone has been following my WIP thread on that cupboard and you are probably eagerly awaiting the next instalment. Oh, you're not? Oh well, never mind.
The thing is, since I last posted, I haven't done a thing to it. I'm nearly finished the damned thing and now I'm finding a million excuses to do something else. The weather is improving and I'm starting to look around for some jobs to do outside. I've got some concreting to do, a bit of landscaping. Have to build a woodshed and a garden shed. A bit of decking. Driveway to do. I'm itching to get out there and get stuck into some of those and I'll probably spend this weekend on them rather than the cupboard. Another weekend would probably knock it over, but I've completely lost enthusiasm for it. Probably the only thing that will motivate me to finish it is to get the damned thing out of my shed.
So what about you? Do you have problems motivating yourself to finish things you started? How do you deal with it? This is serious!!
