Your Kitchen Is an Ecosystem
The fire needs a place to live.
People talk about motivation as if it were a personality trait. In the kitchen, it is often an environment problem.
- Keep the knives, pans, and cutting board where cooking actually starts.
- Stock a short list of default dinners you can cook half-asleep.
- Leave the counter clear enough that starting does not feel like a project.
When the ecosystem supports you, the fire has somewhere to go.
