I received an email from a friend today asking if I might give some advice to a young man who is considering becoming a Chef. Naturally I said that I would be thrilled to do so. I have a lot going on in my head right now so I just wanted to use a two quotes to frame how I feel about this tremendous and touching opportunity.
Albert Einstein once said; “It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge.”
Benjamin Disraeli said; “How very seldom do you encounter in the world a man of great abilities, acquirements, experience, who will unmask his mind, unbutton his brains, and pour forth in careless and picturesque phrase all the results of his studies and observation; his knowledge of men, books, and nature. On the contrary, if a man has by any chance an original idea, he hoards it as if it were old gold; and rather avoids the subject with which he is most conversant, from fear that you may appropriate his best thoughts.”
I will unmask and hoard no idea as I know what I am here to do and it involves anyone interested, truly interested, in being the best they can be.
Are you dreaming big and inspired?
A la prochaine
