How do you stay focused on a project.

I went from building complete sets by year to building team sets for Detroit teams. I sold my original Topps/Bowman/Donruss/Fleer etc. runs from 1955-1982 to buy my first house. I kept my Post Cereal and Jell-o cards from the 60's and all the newer ones. (With my children eating the cereal I was able to build sets) When Topps started Allen & Ginter, Gypsy Queen and Heritage I started working on those sets but, SHORT PRINTS for the sake of SHORT PRINTS turned me away. (I just sold all my Heritage cards because they were just gathering dust.) I did try to build a 2012 Gypsy Queen and I have come close but, the mini's (especially Green and Black) have left me soured on finishing. I now concentrate on Detroit sets and I look for oddball cards of those teams along with pre 1950 cards and memorabilia. It's still a joy to go shows and hunt cause you never know what you will find. (I can still say this being 70 years old and collecting since I was 5)
