Ask Lemmy

"I basically have an infinite list of projects I'd like to pursue."

this is about where I'm at.

All the homesteading stuff, I want to try breeding meat rabbits, I want to try geothermal air conditioning, buy used cars and flip them (I started working on cars a few years ago and ended up enjoying it much more than I thought I would).

a whole separate area for home brewing and jerkying stuff too, canning, all that.

I like the idea of building different types of housing and read books and watch videos all the time, like straw bale or clay or underground, whatever the heck experimental cabins I could build, and I've further toyed with the beginning of an idea of how to turn that into low income housing after I land on the simplest, sturdiest and least resource intensive houses to build.

carpentry. I've built small tables and desks and chairs for classrooms, but I'd like to experiment with larger furniture.

I did a lot of solar power experimentation when I was living in a motorhome that turned out Great, and I expect many of my projects outside would be solar and wind powered.

fish farming, vermicomposting, yeah, just a thousand billion things haha.

I like making things, building things, and new experiences.

I've done smaller projects within most of the fields I've mentioned as the opportunity arose, but even when I'm renting a house somewhere for a couple months I can't easily conduct long-term larger living experiments, so I'll have to get a house and land at some point so I can fiddle at scale.

..."always in a bad mood due to stress."

circumstance and opportunity.

some people don't have the opportunities, many do have the opportunities but don't recognize them or choose not to take them because anything outside of what they already know makes them uncomfortable where is seen as difficult, and they haven't been taught or learned themselves through experience to push past that discomfort or initial effort.
