THE GREATER BIG RACE IN BECOMING A COOK

there a few things in becoming a cook that most cooks these days don't actually understand. well......really, it isn't just the lack of comprehension for the profession but a lack of will, and also a lack of passion. i feel as though most cooks just have a job,and no carrier plans; there is no pursuit to be better cook there is no challenge for them or among them, only the job, there is no lifestyle, no finest, only negligence. in their worlds everything goes unnoticed. they focus too much on other people's carriers instead of their owns. IT is good to be in the know, however when you loose yourself, all is lost.
        the problem is too many is in the big race to become a CHEF that couldn't give two shits cooking and don't take enough time in being a COOK.
 I was never the best, didn't want to be in it just for the "FRENCH TERM", truthfully i wanted to know that there would always be room for improvement, never was the fastest, or the most promising cook, in fact i wanted to be just as i was. not the best, that was my rush; waking up knowing that i will give the day all hell with my two bare, sore hands and a knife my all might and then some, everything i got didn't just do it, i didn't stop there, i couldn't give it up. i had become mad,obsessed,i became an addict, I WAS A COOK.
