  7. Creating work ethic and character Not being the cheapest of hobbies, Owning and maintaining machines gave me a reason to work and enjoy working. Along with this I learned how to financially set goals, save money, and live by a budget.

  8. Love what you do!

  9. Reach Your own personal potential Each and everyone of us have talents, skills and abilities. When we do not productively work at developing those skills we in a way become useless.
