  1. So today I noticed something I hadn’t consciously observed before. My motivation to do a certain task drops significantly if I know there are tools to do it much faster/better than the stuff I have available at that moment 🤔

      I wanted to build a box out of wood. Which requires a few pieces with somewhat square cuts. I had a jigsaw and a plunge saw. It would’ve worked with both, but would’ve been a pain 🤯

        Ideally I’d have used a table saw, a miter saw or even a band saw. I’ve gotten to that point a few times lately, looking back at it now. And it makes projects go straight to the “maybe eventually” shelf 😐

          Do you feel the same thing sometimes? How do you deal with it? #hivemind 🧐
