Re: off topic a little, maybe but how do you have the energy

47, medically retired from primary career due to 3 back surgeries and working now in my second career back on weekends. There are days my body says nope, but I know that if I don’t get out and do something, anything, on it I’ll just be mad. I feel like even though my back is killing me and I am tired, if I just get out and start I won’t want to quit. For me it works. Once I just get out there and get something done or started or figure out a solution to a problem I don’t want to stop. The days I get nothing done, I feel bad about my lack of effort and that doesn’t sit well with me. They can get overwhelming, but I took a truck down to a bare cab and bed with nothing from the firewall forward and thought what the hell did I do? (Pretty sure wife was about to have me committed). Now I have a project that was able to fire up on a new engine and break it in before the end of the year. The motivation? I don’t like getting beat, by anything or anywhere!
