Once upon a time, a cook named Ding was asked to butcher a cow for King Hui. As he worked, his movements were graceful, like dancing to music. The sound of the knife between the bones was like a whisper in the night. When the butcher finished, the king said: “Wow, your skill is amazing!”
The butcher replied: “It was nothing really. When I first took up the job, what I saw was the whole cow. But after I had been at it for a few years and butchered a good number of cows, what I saw was no longer the whole cow, but just its structure. Ever since then, I stopped using my eyes and used my mind instead,
knowing where every bone and joint is and where to cut exactly.” By years of practice, the cook finally achieved excellence in butchering. Even today, his story is still told to show that a good craftsman comes from continued practice.
