I do know that recently I have witnessed what it means to be specific in certain areas of my life. I don't know if it counts. I am talking about preparing food.

I usually shied away from making food for other people, I do know how to cook, but, I often feel weird, or not so sure of making food that is pleasant to the taste buds of other people

Then reality came, I ended up staying with people who love and appreciate good food, and I had to get my specifics up.

I started with my favorite food, beans with ripe plantain, I paid attention to the details of the cooking, and it came out well. No one said anything about that meal the first time.

The second day, I prepared beans and rice, merged together, these people couldn't wait to run the pot dry. The other guy kept saying, Ble(shorten for blessing) that Rice and beans make sense die.... No way, they enjoyed, I was overjoyed

The next day, we contributed, I went to the market, and got supplies for our Traditional soup, Afang soup. The money wasn't enough so I had to prepare this food with lesser ingredients.

They were supportive when I returned to break the bad news,they must have thought, the outcome will be lousy. They were in for a surprise. I got into my creative side, and came up with a wonderful soup. I am not bragging, one of them came to my room and told me, that soup isn't going to see the next day, it was too good. The other person said later in the evening, that we should plan to eat Afang soup, frequently... What the heck? Is that how much you love what you got? I asked in my head.

I was full of pride, I won't lie. Today, I woke up from the wrong side of the bed, I wanted to go back to my normal self who doesn't like cooking. Just then , one of the came around, and asked, "Ble, what are we eating today, ehh?". Nothing oooo, I replied. He wasn't having that at all.

He went to the market and bought supplies for food, and drag me to the kitchen to prepare it. These guys are getting used to this life.... Lol.

Now, when I was thinking about it throughout today, I discover if I told my old friends I literally cooked for four days in a roll and I didn't mess any of the meals up, they won't believe me. Especially my girlfriend, she will doubt every single word.

Now, reading this, I am moved to think, I must turned my specifics around when it comes to preparing meals. And I had reduce my resistance. Would I be right if I say that, @ryzeonline ?
