Digging through the pictures on my phone I ran across these two. Looking at them side by side it's easy to see the difference. Working in my shop when it's full is difficult sometimes, it's easier to work on projects when the shop is clean and organized. But a full shop means I'm busy, which is great for my small business. What can't be seen in these pictures is how they share so much. The same worry and stress is in both pictures. Am I making the right choices to grow my business? Will I get this done in time? What do I need to do to get more business? I assume most business owners have the same worries. Also in these pictures is a dream that I've had since I was a kid! I get to build and create things with my hands! I get to teach my kids skills that have taken me a lifetime to learn! I get to keep chasing my dream that I took a chance on! I have a space that brings me so much peace and joy! If you've stuck through this long post, I have a challenge for you. Post a picture in the comments, add some context if you'd like. It can be a dream you have, a dream you've chased, or just a place that brings positive energy to your life! I will pick one or two people that share to get a little something free from the shop!
