ON TODAY'S SHOW
Welcome to Episode #063. Tonight we are going to talk about favorite projects and accountability. We are joined tonight by our guest host Russ Claridy of Simply Wooden Creations.
WHAT'S GOING ON IN OUR SHOP?
Drew - Gym Floor destruction
Jeremy - I am working on a video with my son on how to build a Christmas tree stand.
Russ - Finished up a Marine Corps pen for a retiring Marine.
QUESTIONS
Thomas Green - I was looking back through old projects the other day and I found it hard to pick which one was my favorite to build. What is your favorite project that you have built, if you can even pick?
Mark Matthesion - Drew and Jeremy, excellent show. It is one of my favorite podcasts. I really miss Sam as well. My question is... I have had a hard time keeping my self accountable and on track with my goals. I have heard about Mastermind Groups or an accountability partner before. Are you guys part of a Mastermind group and if so do you find it helpful to stay on track with your goals?
KICKBACK
Lemongrovewoodgnome: I sent an email about the whole leaving your current job to pursue woodworking as a full time gig a few months ago and have to give props to Todd for keeping it real. I've been wondering about that myself, but those on YouTube who quit their full time job to do woodworking don't really talk about their struggles and how their lives compared before and after the transition. Thanks Todd for shedding some light on this subject. I am sure there is more to the transition that we know.
Todd Clippinger: WOW! You stayed on track with keep the "short episode" short on episode 062!
