What is your temporal persistence? Like if you have some project you are putting off while trying to mull over a solution, how long do you generally keep that in mind until you find a solution or it fades from memory, replaced by something more productive. I’m not really talking about consciously shifting focus. I’m talking about the point when a project gets shelved unintentionally; you still hope to get back to it but usually do not. What is your temporal persistence like? Perhaps you complete every project, meaning you are less abstracted and that is fine too.
If it’s a custom DIY project, potentially years.
Some of my best projects basically came from parts and materials out of my junk bins. And sometimes it’ll take years before I randomly stumble into the exact right parts and materials I was looking for.
That’s exactly ME! Sometimes I’ll find some trash in the woods and think, “That’s what I needed for that project!”
We hauled in driftwood from the river last week, working on a terrarium tonight.
