Not only is a dull knife annoying, it’s incredibly inefficient and let’s face it, when you’re hungry, you’re hungry! We’ve all tried to complete a job with the wrong tool (Ever use a wrench to pound in a nail?). It might get the task done but usually not with the level of excellence we are looking for. From time to time a knife needs to be sharpened.

The same can be said for us. When we get stuck in a routine of doing things over and over the same way day after day, we can become dull. We need to sharpen ourselves.
