Other than the fact that you get to be an executive chef at a fancy restaurant if you win, I am not really sure why anyone would want to voluntarily be on that show.  Why you want some crazy chef tossing profanities at you and telling you you are worthless, is totally and utterly beyond me.

And yet, most of those people go in there feeling pretty good about themselves.  It’s almost ridiculous how overly confident they are in their talents and abilities.  Then they get in there and they do terribly.

Lesson?

Confidence isn’t necessarily required for success.  I think those that are teachable and coachable are those that will do well.
