Some one help!

Lately I have been struggling with the question, how do all these pretty chefs stay so pretty?  I see these guys/girls in their fancy chef whites,  name embroidered on the lapel, creases crisp, pants ironed and a beautifully placed hat with no wear shown at all on their head and I wonder how?  I work my ass off, what the hell am I doing wrong?  I can’t seem to let any one finish my creation, I know I am not as big, famous or even as remotely talented as many chefs out their, but, my art work in my head can only be finished by me.  I spend countless hours in the kitchen, when I am done a shift, I am dirty.  Flour from head to toe, grease on my pants and usually an assortment of burns.  Maybe this is because I am not as talented as the clean guys, not as skilled at the basics, but I don’t think so.  I see these guys with 5 or 6 restaurants, showing their nicely shaved face and well manicured hands in each location for a hour here and an hour there and wonder how.  Is their day longer than mine?  I can’t piece together a day to spend with my family and these guys dance from location to location with a weightlessness that is amazing to me.  This my friends is by no mean a blog to bash these guys and girls, it is merely a blog to praise them and beg them to let me in on their secret.  As I constantly search for future locations the question keeps reoccurring…….Can I do it?  In my head, I know I can, but at what cost, is it as easy as these chefs make it look or are they just straight up good.  By the way, I know it is not easy, please don’t write comments about how hard you work if you are one of these people, I know how hard you work, trust me, this is not to ridicule you but to praise you.  In a business with such low profit margins and a constant eye on labor costs how do you spread yourself so thin.  If you are one of those people with the ability to make this happen please, I beg of you, call me-email me-stop by, I would love to pick your brain.  I have a book of concepts saved to my computer, all of which seem to be good concepts, is there a few duds in there, maybe, but for the most part I can’t find to many flaws in them at all.  How can I put them all in motion, I have heard the adage don’t spread yourself too thin but how else can I make enough money to live.   I know the easy answer is to get a reality series but I am just not that interesting, I don’t fight with my employees, I have a loving wife and great kid and I work a lot so where is the drama in that? I am not a typical egotistical chef (actually quite the opposite), I treat people well and I go out of my way to be fair, hardly ready for primetime tv.  Next, get public, great idea, I don’t love the spotlight and don’t have the cliche celebrity chef attitude (no I don’t think I am in any way celebrity, just a point) of look at me I can turn a Mcdonald’s McNugget into a ball of fat free froth that steams, nope, I like the McNugget and respect what it is and what is supposed to be.  Oh well back to the point, someone out there give me a pointer or two, I am ready to move on but a little afraid, for the first time in my life.   I have always jumped and then figured out how to land, luckily I have always figured it out, but now, I am jumping with pockets full of other people’s money.  Funny thing about other people’s money, eventually they want it back!  Bottom line look for another Jeremy Hummer (plus others) location in the future!
