The need for motivation.

[TrailBeast]

I know some people would like to get some stuff done on their projects, but sometimes just can’t quite get it up.
What works for me is to see someone else make progress on theirs.
Maybe this video will give someone a little push.
It all started with a 80k mile 5.9 Magnum, and all of it was done mostly on weekends between work commitments which I drove it to.
No garage, just mostly done in my back yard in front of a 10x12 shed where my tools are.
Now get out there get it.

I've always thought for a ugly *** beaker, that was a cool car.

14 hrs to strip down the roof on my recent project an 86’ Dodge van.
3 different color on the roof. My motivation… just keep in visioning the end and driving it.

I would go out to work on my hardtop back in the day and turn around and go back in the house. I was so overwhelmed. Then I told myself to do 1 thing a day no matter how small. Most times once out there I would get a shitload done.

I would have to to make it roll.lol It was usually kept inside but I probably has some side work inside to get more $$$. Took 8 years to do because I didn't take money from my pay. My Ragtop took only 2 years because I sold my Harley . But I feel it was worth it.

That's the process I use now. Sometimes it really is just a small item, but sometimes it's hours. The benefit is building that routine of going out and doing "something" for the project no matter how small. Eventually, the 1000 mile walk gets shorter and shorter, one step at a time.

I couldn't agree more. Most days I don't feel like starting anything, but once I get going, I won't stop. That's how I renovated my bathroom.....Kept looking at it and thinking "tomorrow".....Then one morning I put a sledge hammer through the wall and it was "game on".

Exactly i run a building company we renovate homes often 120+ years old, when they all pulled apart it looks over whelming. I tell the boys just pick a task and get it done start checking items off. Otherwise you will just stare at it and basically spin around in circles lol
