Avoid negative people at all costs as they are the most serious impediment to builders who wish to achieve something from their hours spent in the shop. Many people mistakenly believe that lack of technical skills or even a shortage of funds are the major threat to homebuilding success. In reality these are simple things to cope with. Skills can be learned, and budgets can be stretched. Motivation is the element that is always in short supply. Contrary to what many people think, this is not because some people are inherently lazy. I have come to understand that motivation is primarily sapped by negative people, people who spread disinformation, people who don't want others to succeed. If you learn anything from me, learn to avoid these people like the plague.
