Build the burger like it’s going on the menu photo. Pride in small work is a habit you carry everywhere.

CREATIVITY

WHAT THIS MEANS

Care is a general setting rather than a task-specific one. Whatever standard you apply to the thing nobody will photograph becomes the standard available to you when something matters, because you cannot switch it on for special occasions. The burger is not important. The habit of doing it properly is the thing being built.

Take the most routine task in your day and do one version of it with full attention. Notice that it takes barely longer. Then see whether the care leaks into the next thing you touch.
