90%

[The Renaissance Man]

I have a long history of taking projects almost to completion, and then diverting my attention to something else.

90% refers to projects that actually get traction and go forward. There are countless others that never get started.

I have two half finished bikes in my shop, but I find myself scheming on other ideas for builds that I haven't even got the parts for yet! And then there's my Karmann Ghia and an oval window Beetle and the list goes on and on and on...

Is there anyone else here with this affliction?

Same here I get them running, but I hardly ever get them jist the way I initially planned.

Same here! 90% is as done as it gets for me. Mine are never done, just when I think it's done, another idea pops into this sick mind!

Uhm, dose anyone else pull parts from the 90% not done's to work on other not done's within the 90% of the not dones?

I had a boss that referred to pep as 90%ers with disdain in his voice, so I got a little voice in my head that says gotta finish, gotta finish, gotta finish. To avoid jumping projects, I won't work on another one, unless I'm waiting for parts. End result?
It takes me months to finish anything and I have a long line of projects waiting to start. I'm not sure this is any better.

Lately I feel like I am more of a 10%er.

Ha. I think all of my bikes are 90%. It drives my girlfriend nuts. "How do you not have TWO bikes that we can actually ride?!"
