Had to choose between fishing a new line or cutting open the drywall on a kitchen rewire in Tacoma.

Went with the fish tape, took me 3 hours but saved the client a drywall repair bill. Anyone got a better trick for a 90 degree turn through a double top plate?

Nice! That's some serious patience right there.

Patience really is the key, Richard. I read an article last week about how modern tech makes us expect instant results, which hurts long-term projects. The writer argued that real skill comes from sticking with something boring or hard for a long time. That kind of focus seems rare now. Your comment about serious patience hits on exactly that idea. It's a good reminder that some things just can't be rushed.

Set a timer for 10 minutes and commit to not touching your phone during that time.
