Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Antenna building

long time since I sat down patiently putting something together.

came to notice that while building this wi-fi antenna for our network, I'm
actually taking my time building it. I've never really taken my time before,
it was always a rush to put an antenna together and get the thing in the air,
hoping it will work the first time. I'm finding that I actually like taking my
time building something, and enjoying the process, and it is quite relaxing,
believe it or not. Where-as before I was in a hurry for no reason and getting
all mad at the thing didn't work or when something didn't fit right.

finally realized what it was to take time to build something, put some quality
effort it, and enjoy the fruits of my labor. Sure it may take a little longer,
or does it because now it'll most likely work the first time?
