You can't give what you don't have.

People see me doing a big project and ask me how I can stay so cheerful and happy when I am working on a job like that. I just smile, because they don't know that I don't really do any big jobs. To me, a ten room job is no different than a three room job. The first thing that I do is look at the whole job to get a "feel" for the house and what it needs. I like to become friends with the house.
Then I pick a starting point.
I am no longer painting a house. Just a wall. When I am done with that wall, I have finished a job. I feel good. I have a sense of completion. I have finished something that I started.
Now I get to pat myself on the back. I can take a break, have a cup of coffee, take a quick walk or start a new wall. My choice. It is the same way with each wall or ceiling. I only do one at a time. I get to feel a lot of completions. I get to feel good about myself a lot.
Next thing I know, the room is done. At some point, I will finish painting one wall and notice that the whole house is done. Sometimes I am surprised to see that it is all done. Now I will go back and look at it all and see what little touch up need to be done. All done. I've got to be careful not to strain my arm patting myself on the back.
Now I get to really celebrate. How do I do my website?
I see the whole site I want and become friends with it. Now I get to celebrate. I get to see it on the web. How do I do my newsletter?
I have my template set up for my news letter. Now I get to celebrate. I get to share it with people. How do I do my life?
I talk with one person at a time. Now I really get to celebrate. I get to live a full life.
How do you do your website? How often do you get to celebrate?
Do you deal with the whole house? It is your choice. Go ahead and choose. Russ
