Making a Hard-boiled Egg -- A Challenge
"This isn't a hard-boiled egg!" my wife complained.
"Not too loud, Sweety. Your mama might hear us," I answered back
quietly.
Like every man of the house, I do the cooking once in a while.
This is now my second attempt so I'm puzzled (mind you I'm a
Certified House Chef) and disappointed why I can't even cook a
dumb egg. My eggs are cracked with some of the white out into
the water. After removing the shells, I ended up having
scrambled eggs with no dignity!
Resigned! Don't laugh at me, I bet you can't do a better job
either.
Consistent dedication over a considerable period of time is a
must if you are to succeed in any project worth pursuing.
Consistent attendance on a course over four years earns you a
degree. Consistent sowing of corn earns you sackfuls of corn
after four months. Consistent display of affection towards an
unmarried lady for a period of one
hour to five years (depending
on your target) earns you a wife. Consistent nutrition of an
embryo on a woman's womb earns you a baby after nine months of
waiting.
How foolish am I to think that I can have my hard-boiled egg
immediately!
For aspiring chefs, maintain a consistent 100 degrees C on the
egg for 23.10 minutes to make a hard-boiled egg. And don't
forget to put some water! (I wish my thermometer and watch are
not broken.)
Do you want to be a success?
Be consistent in your work and patient enough to wait. Your
effort will be richly rewarded in due time.
