Settling into the new year. Yet again considering what project to work on in my spare time. This is one option, attempting to write on a consistent basis to see if I can improve the content and quality of whatever I manage to put into print.

I’m reviewing all the half-finished projects that currently sit in the house: learning to play the cello, becoming proficient with 3-D printing, building electronics to use with said 3-D printing, learning model building and painting, repairing the motorcycle, cleaning up the house, getting out of the house more often, and the list goes on.

I think what I’m chasing is the ability to self-motivate. I try something out, but focus all my attention for a few days and burn out. Then I don’t want anything to do with whatever project. I satisfy the initial curiosity but don’t have the follow-through to complete what I started.
