"Chop your own wood, and it will warm you twice"
Henry Ford (1863-1947) American industrialist.
I'm pretty sure Mr. Ford is talking about the effort required to chop wood creating warmth, but I see another possibility.
The good feeling that comes from having done something you could just as easily have left to someone else.
You realize the benefit of whatever you've done as well as the satisfaction of having done it yourself.
