"Ability is what you're capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it." -Lou Holtz
In a hot kitchen full of fire, stress, and sharp things, how do tempers not get heated? To expect human beings to never to get upset is an unachievable goal. To expect human beings to learn from their experiences and to be able to communicate effectively and professionally with a passion for their desired result is a reasonable goal.
The word temper means "habit of mind". You choose your attitude; it is a habit. You have the choice to be a player or a spectator in your life, in your relationships, in your work. To show up is a choice. To excel is a choice. The way you eat is a choice: no one forces you to eat unhealthy food. The way you react to the actions of others is also a choice. Unfavorable situations are inevitable and uncontrollable. Your reactions are controllable. To every action, there will be a subsequent reaction. What will be yours when the heat is on high?
