Omelet vs Scrambled eggs
This morning I was making breakfast and had a stupidly obvious thought that felt… weirdly business-y.
Scrambled eggs and an omelet are basically the same ingredients, right? Eggs. Butter. Salt. Maybe cheese. Maybe a handful of whatever’s in the fridge.
Same base. Totally different outcome.
Scrambled eggs are chaos you gently manage. You keep things moving, you don’t overthink it, you let it be a little imperfect. It’s forgiving. Even if you mess up, it’s still edible. Still breakfast.
An omelet is… intentional. It needs timing. Heat control. Structure. You commit. You fold. You don’t poke it too much or it falls apart. And if you try to treat it like scrambled eggs, you end up with a broken, sad egg pile and a tiny identity crisis.
And I just sat there like: huh. Business does that too.
Same “ingredients” on paper - offer, content, pricing, audience, systems - but the way you put them together changes everything. The order matters. The heat matters. The amount of stirring matters. Sometimes the difference between “this works” and “why is this a mess” isn’t more effort… it’s a small shift in method.
Anyway. No big lesson. Just an observation brought to you by breakfast and the fact that eggs are humble little teachers.
