Come On Baby Light My Fire

[Excerpt from Guru Kaur's blog on the Be the Woman... Private Online Community for women...]

This is a prime example of how to motivate men to do something: you need to let them know what's in it for them.  Then they'll say that they were totally inspired and found a solution which was nothing at all to do with you, nor that you made or found online the marshmallows.  Just praise the fire, praise him for fetching the sticks for the marshmallows and the firewood, don't let the fire go out, keep up the supply of marshmallows and keep quiet. 

There's another reason that I love this picture too: raw food just isn't that good for you and most food needs to be broken down by cooking before you eat it.  As an Ayurvedic doctor said to me in India "it's either fire outside your body, or fire inside your body which will cook your food."
