I recently read an interview with an author I have read often. He said
something to the effect- I like being an author, I like coming up with
ideas for a book and I like it when I finish a book. But I don't
always enjoy the process of writing.

Such is also my feelings for woodworking. It is a psychological hurdle
that almost every hobbyist experieces. Push through it, one step at a
time. Soon the momentum of seeing the light at the end of the tunnel
will take over.
