His Story
Back in the 1990's, I (Steve Nielson) turned a hobby into a full time global business, building custom vehicles and developing products I sold for the DIY Car builders around the world. At one time in 2001, I had 17 employees. I had the largest players in the industry demanding my products. I was writing DIY articles several times a year, that were published in multiple car and truck enthusiasts magazines. It was fun yet cost me all of my time and energy. I did that over 18 years.. average of 80-100+ hrs a week!
Now fast forward sold the shop January 2013. Since then I have worked from home. I never really feel like I'm working though.
They say "if you find something you believe and love doing, you'll never work another day of your life".
What I believe in is being happy and healthy. I'm 43 and want to LIVE. I'm doing things now that I've missed out on for nearly 20 years working 7 days a week. I don't regret the experiences as I'm a Entrepreneur at heart. I could never settle for working for someone else dream. I will always work towards achieving my own.
I highly recommend if you are not happy/satisfied with where you are in life. You decide what wakes you up in the morning. What motivates you to go to work. Then use that to fuel a fire inside you to accomplish your goals/dreams you once had, or have yet to accomplish.
Here are some of the projects I completed over the years. I invite you to take a look and feel free to share. If you have a favorite, I'd love to know which one you like best.
I am looking forward to several more years of creating, painting, and learning.
