I have taken up the philosophy that I will no longer take roles in any area that I enjoy... Because it makes it suck. Did that with reenacting groups, non profit, church... Just sucks the life out of it. I'm firmly in the role of "participant".
I agree. I loved painting my 56 Ford F-100 in my dad's garage as a kid. Then was a body man 20 years. Finally had enough and changed careers at 42. Didn't touch my tools for 4 years. I then restored my 2 rides and found it very enjoyable.
