Cooking....just what does one know or understand about it???????
Although i have not done any survey or questionnaire at all regarding this , I suppose the norm is that people always define it as a “self-surviving skill” or rather, “an art” ,at which one needs practice and talent to do it to perfection….
Well , I agree utterly with the above-mentioned definitions , but on the other hand , I reckon that the definition of ‘cooking’ goes far more beyond that …
To be precise , I think that cooking is not only a universal way of feeding oneself , it’s also a test of personality , a means of gauging one’s mental strength , and likewise , a way to weigh one’s power of determination……..
As the saying goes , Rome was not built in a day. The same theory applies to cooking….
Apparently , one is not born with the skill of cooking…. As far as I’m concerned , I did not have the slightest idea of how I could cook for myself when I first reached Germany…and now after hours of trials , minutes of experiments and seconds of failures, u know what ?? I’m still NOT good at cooking ….( I apologize for giving u the impression that I’m already very good at cooking  hahahah……….)…
Nevertheless , an incident happened today that prompted me to write something about cooking….For the first time in my life , the curry that I cook is edible!!!!!...wah gempar lah….Yeah , no joking…before this, I have cooked curry for 4 times and all the outcome were unbelievably terrible….Had I given up on cooking curry , I would not have achieved the success today , albeit a minor success…..With that , I could say that my renounced confidence has been reinforced and at the end of the day , I finally understand that perserverance is the only key to success !!!!
One more suggestion for those companies which are looking for CEO’s with distinctive capabilities , perhaps the time has come for them to use ‘cooking’ as a filter to pinpoint the suitable candidates …..
