ended up getting a little bit of help

00:40

from one of my buddies I'm going to go

00:42

ahead and make this intro nice and short

00:44

so we could get right into the action I

00:46

was supposed to do this yard a little

00:48

while back but you know guys life

00:50

happens sometimes so I had to postpone

00:52

doing this yard and the yard ended up

00:54

becoming pretty much a jungle I think it

00:57

was the same code enforcement guy that

00:59

led me to a few yards that I've done on

01:01

this channel and he said that he knew

01:04

this family that needed a little bit of

01:06

help and directed me to this yard right

01:08

here I already spent a full day working

01:10

on this yard all I got to was the

01:12

backyard and if I'm being honest guys I

01:14

feel like I haven't even made a dent

01:16

into this yard sometimes it might not

01:18

come through on camera but I definitely

01:20

get overwhelmed in these yards I just

01:22

pick a spot to clear out one spot at a

01:25

time and hours just go by by the time

01:28

it's the end of the day I end up

01:29

knocking out a good portion so I don't

01:32

even think of the end result when I

01:33

start these yards I just set little

01:36

goals to achieve within the yards and

01:39

that's pretty much what is life itself

01:40

some goals that we have seem a little

01:43

overwhelming but if you break them down

01:45

into just little steps and if you knock

01:47

out just pieces here and there you'll be

01:49
