Fast forward to 2:45 – where Ramsay says to the chef – “They more work and effort you put in, the more it hurts when it goes wrong.” – I’m paraphrasing out some of the pieces about food but the sentiment is exactly the same in anything you are doing – coding, writing, sports, whatever it is.

The more you put in, the more it hurts when it goes wrong.

I love this line because it perfectly captures on line that we must cross between investing wholly in what we are doing and giving up and when the going gets tough.

It will hurt when things go wrong the more you care, but it will also feel that much better when it goes well.
