There is something so rewarding about a perfect strike of an ax. As it connects with the flesh of the log, splintering cleanly through till the head plants itself snuggly into the chopping block.
As satisfying as the perfect strike is, the opposite is equally as infuriating.
What is the difference between a successful swing on an ax and a dud?
It all starts with how you approach the log.
Do you approach the log with the intent to give everything you’ve got or are you holding back to save energy for the nex log?
Focusing on saving energy and effort for the logs to come is ridiculous because those logs don’t matter, heck they don’t even exist until you get past the one right in front of you.
Approaching a task with your best effort will always save you time and energy in the long run. Cutting corners will lead to you eventually failing or going back and doing it the right way.
Put your best effort forward; no one has ever regretted doing their best work.
