Do it properly the first time around

So here we are again. I'm back at my workshop. I was at a workshop over the
00:00 --> 00:09

weekend fixing my fuel issue. There was a bit of a leak on the gas tank, petrol
00:09 --> 00:18

tank, I'm going to call it petrol, on my petrol tank. So we had to take the petrol
00:18 --> 00:23

tank out, empty the tank, obviously take the tank down, and while he was fixing it
00:23 --> 00:31

I was fixing a few other things like cabling and so on quickly to make sure I
00:31 --> 00:37

can get back on the road again quickly. Put it back, everything was fine. The
00:37 --> 00:42

following day I noticed I lost half a tank of petrol and I couldn't figure out
00:42 --> 00:48

I got underneath everything seemed fine. Couldn't figure out what it was.
00:48 --> 00:52

The following day I lost another quarter. I'm like okay I gotta do something about
00:52 --> 00:58

this because this can't go on obviously. I don't want to leak petrol everywhere.
00:58 --> 01:02

It's insane. So I came to my store today, my workshop, and I made sure I checked
01:02 --> 01:13

absolutely everything and I noticed that the fuel pump was loose from the not the
01:13 --> 01:19

feed end, the sending end as it were. Now the problem was that I noticed this and
01:19 --> 01:26

I thought it was a swivel nut, so there's a special nut that you can get and it
01:26 --> 01:31

swivels and but it's connected and it wasn't that. It was actually loose and
01:31 --> 01:37

this brings me to believe doing it right the first time around because if I had
01:37 --> 01:42

checked it properly I wouldn't have had this issue and I wouldn't have been
01:42 --> 01:47

leaking petrol all over the place, losing money, losing time etc. And obviously this
01:47 --> 01:53

leads me to the point of doing things properly the first time around. Now I
01:53 --> 01:59

come across a lot of small businesses and freelancers, professionals who get a
01:59 --> 02:06

piece of software and just use it and it you know they're like it's okay someone
02:06 --> 02:10

told me to use it and they just carry on using it and then they get to a stage
02:10 --> 02:13

where they either have to expand, scale and it doesn't scale with them because
02:13 --> 02:20

they didn't do the initial thought process of actually what they actually
02:20 --> 02:25

need rather than oh this is what's been told I should get. So doing things
02:25 --> 02:31

properly the first time around you do save time and money and this is truly a
02:31 --> 02:36

testament to that. Now while it was here I did make sure that I did a few other
02:36 --> 02:42

things as well. There was a few cables that I need to reroute, I did a few
02:42 --> 02:48

things with the battery, the diesel heater, there was a few things that
02:48 --> 02:52

would come loose. What else was there? I rerouted a new cable as well. I did
02:52 --> 03:01

lots of things. Again I could have done all this, I should have done all of this
03:01 --> 03:05

at the beginning but I personally I didn't have the time and this is the
03:05 --> 03:09

excuse that I hear all the time from businesses and so on. I didn't have the
03:09 --> 03:14

time so I just did it but then at the end yeah you lose time and money and we
03:14 --> 03:20

are a testament to that. Me and Woof!, he's down there chilling. So I'm gonna take
03:20 --> 03:25

him for a walk, enjoy your day. It's nice and sunny now so I'm gonna go to the park.
03:25 --> 03:30

See you next time. Ciao.
03:30 --> 03:33
