One side of me that I am very passionate about is working with my hands. There is something very zenlike about diving hands-first into a project that gets me dirty – and using different parts of my brain (and body) than I use in my work as a coach.
Home remodeling/organizing projects are what I love most. You may have heard me talk about gardening and painting (both artistically and the rooms in my home) but the past couple of weeks I finally learned how to use power tools!
My husband and I reorganized our garage and in doing so, I learned to use a miter saw, table saw and drill press. All tools I have watched him use for years, but never tried. I’ve always helped him with projects, but this time I took greater ownership of doing some of the pieces of the project myself – very empowering and fun! I know have greater confidence in my abilities and can now tackle more projects on my own.
What have you always wanted to try? Are you ready to dive in?
nice post about finding what more you can do in life
