"Starting is easy...finishing is hard." This is the framed quote

over my work area. I love starting new things. I'm an innovative idea person with a fast start mentality full of enthusiasm, but I bore easily at keeping on with a project to completion. In my hobbies of knitting and crafting I have overcome this by starting several projects and moving from one to the next when the boredom creeps in. I've actually completed more projects than most people I know.
But...
ummm.... in 2009 this a huge
conjunction for me; But God has opened significant doors of opportunity for me to join Him in work that could be significant eternally in His Kingdom here on earth. I am so awed that I am humbly crying out to Him to move me beyond my "bent," my likes and preferences and prove me excellent in staying on task as Holy Spirit leads. I want to finish in ways that please Him.

You great finishers: got any tips or ideas?

Being "type A" I must finish projects or feel bad. But my husband is the master of 3/4 of every job! LOL!
I think this has to do with personality. It's just who you are. So just keep plugging along knowing that you probably do have more projects going than I do, but I will finish my 1 before you. At the end of the year, if I did 10 projects 1 at a time, and you did 10 projects spread out over the same time...does it matter?
Neither way may be better...just all parts equal in the body of Christ.
