Multiple lessons from redoing a kitchen in Leominster….

1 year ago today, the nightmare of updating the kitchen in Leominster began 😂. I learned many valuable lessons for the future from that experience including:

⏰ The immense value of your time and how it should be most efficiently spent in relation to your projects/business.

🤝 The dynamic of utilizing contractors to give you the result that you are envisioning and leveraging their skillset and abilities to make it happen. “Who Not How”!

💰 The dynamic of trying to save money by doing the work yourself for the first time, and the type of result that you can expect from it. (Final result was absolutely subpar!) It takes contractors YEARS of repetitions to be able to produce certain results, and just because the guy on the YouTube video can do it in 4 minutes and get a crazy awesome result, doesn’t mean you will. It might be better to hire a contractor instead.

These lessons have been very important to learn as more projects come down the pipeline and definitely sharpen as time goes on! 😁


Happy Saturday y’all!
