535 || work clean (book) Aug 04, 2022

Show notes

Dan Charnas of 'work clean' says - Mise en place is not about making things tidy, it’s not about things looking clean. It’s about being able to work clean, which implies motion. The system has to be returned to order. So it’s not just about creating order, like, “Oh, look how I arranged my desk,” it really is about, “I’m going to move through all these projects, but I’ve also made the commitment to myself that when I’m done with this project I’m going to wrap it up.” I’m either going to deliver it or I’m going to put myself in a position where when I resume it, everything is in a place for me to pick it up. Because that’s going to save me 20 minutes, I can use that 20 minutes to do other kinds of work or I can use that 20 minutes to be with my kid and read him a story. I think being a parent, that also affected my venture into this because that time really means something to me.

Show notes

yeah, the concept of the mise en place is great but what about the opposite? can't we deter ourselves with anti-prep work too?

529 || a romantic relationship with prep work Jul 28, 2022

Show notes

prep work is a major part of time spent "in the kitchen"

Cleaning, slicing, dicing is 90% of the process while sautéing, plating, and enjoying is very minimal in the scheme of things -

but if you’re a happy and fulfilled chef its not because you dread the other mise en place - you find the meditative repetitive aspect of it; you build a relationship with the process, and you often do need to ebb into that obsessive place to stay excited about what you’re producing. Like life - if you’re not enjoying the tedious nature of being a human, you really should try to work to change your relationship with that part, since it is so important and such a valuable piece in actually producing the magic.

527 || alone || embracing creativity to thrive Jul 26, 2022

Show notes

“Winning is defined differently for each of us but victory for me would be leaving here at peace with myself. I dunno what that is yet. You sometimes don’t like what you see + you become aware that you may need to change some things.”

“Success is stumbling from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm”
