Right? Isn’t food awesome?

Tools

What do I need to finish this job?

Toaster, bread & butter, a plate & knife with something to wash it all down, yes? Fruit Punch will do.

Think Process & Flow

Everything has layers and goes in a certain order. Understanding how something works gives me control & confidence.

Plug in toaster > grab bread, butter & utensils > plop bread in toaster and pull slider down to begin toasting.

When the toast is done, it pops up to let you know. But never dismounting out of the toaster, I wish.

Spread butter > Eat.
…take awesome nap.

Talk to Myself

Seriously. This won’t require yelling–or even talking for that matter. Walking myself through the process will better clarify and expedite the current task at hand, by holding my hand.

“Okay, I need to grab the bread out outta the fridge (stays fresh longer YUP), take out 2 slices and pop these in the toaster.

Set the time. Grabbed the butter, plate and utensils on the way back through the kitchen. Now I’m set back at the micro, let’s do this toaster.

Trial & Error

Greatest idea ever.

My toast is burnt, WTF!
I came back just a second ago and now the shits burnt.

Try again, turn the timer down a bit so the bread isn’t heating for so long.

Communicate & google things

…better

Structure my question fully & clear with the proper details. How would I like to be talked to? What really helps when someone asks me a question?

Burnt toast using toaster.

My toast is burnt, I am using the Toaster 5000 model with the dial set to “4.”

Enough with the toast

It’s easy to get intimidated when I’m learning something new. New is foreign, and that’s scary because it takes time and I could probably fail. But what is my other option, bail out of an idea? We made the technology, therefore we better control it.
