Enjoy each step

Five years ago we bought an old, turn of the century, house. It was in a bit of a state and needed a complete refurbishment. We had a clear vision of how it would look when we finished it and for the first six months we lived in a rented house while we got all of the mess out of the way.

Unfortunately we were naive in renovating houses, the builders did a bad job and ripped us off financially. It has taken four and a half years to get back to where we should have been.

I have now adopted a different attitude towards the house. We still have a clear vision of the finished house however instead of beating ourselves up because we haven't achieved it we set ourselves next step objectives.

My next objective is to finish the hall and utility in the basement, I should have this completely finished in a couple of weeks. The house won't be finished but at least we can enjoy finishing that task.

I am always daunted by big tasks so I have decided to focus on the next step, after all each marathon is won one step at a time, each blog is written one word at a time.

Enjoy completing your next step

Until next time, enjoy yourself!
