quote wannabe outboard guy:

Look at it this way Johnny. Some of the BEST lessons I have learned over the years from restoring many, many classic cars, Harleys, and of late boat motors have come from MY OWN MISTAKES. Screwing up is a very valuable teacher. I learn more from my own two hands taking things apart and putting them back together (sometimes more then once) then reading most “how to books”, manuals, or internet postings. I just think better with my eyes and hands and my brain is just along for the ride most times. I never consider it a screw up IF I learned from it.
Best to you in the new year.

Wannabe- your learning experience you stated above echo my feelings exactly. In addition , if I’ve been struggling getting something mounted ,can’t reach a bolt, tough position and just getting more and more frustrated.. I just stop. Come back later after eating , rest,clear your mind ,relax..later or the next day I’ve had it go right together perfectly.
