Nor after taking some super-spicy wasabi.
All I want is to share with you a true story.
It's about a Japanese chef in Hong Kong resuscitating his business through transformation. And he made it, by now selling HK$15 Curry Rice to students at a very local mall.
Success story like this sounds cliche?
What stops me was not the story itself, but a note. To be exact, it's the dogma found on his kitchen's door.
For your information, this Japanese speaks Mandarin, so the dogma was written in Chinese, to remind his staff, and his own self.
I'll try my best to get you its closest counterpart, in English.
[The Dogma at Ginza Nichome Curry]
1. Our state of mind should be constantly kept like the Sun, which enables us to serve clients with Love & Peace;
2. It takes a clean restaurant to nurture a clear spiritual mind;
3. Treat every plate of curry rice seriously, because every single plate is able to make the whole company dead-or-alive;
4. Have the guts to apologize;
5. Chaotic taste means chaotic mind; Chaotic mind means chaotic family; Chaotic family means chaotic society; Chaotic society means chaotic country; Chaotic country means chaotic universe.
6. "Want some Japanese pickles?"
This "little" dogma not only explains the success of this Japanese entrepreneurial chef, but also thousands of successful cases in Japanese history.
For virtually nothing is "little" enough to be taken lightly.
I'm sure the majority of Japanese population would find "Butterfly Effect" a concept so natural because, to me, they are all born fans of "Oneness".
