ironing

when you burn yourself - ironing, cooking, grilling, etc - you are always cautious from that point forward so you don't burn yourself again.  you guard your hands, arms, fingers and move them slowly by the hot object, making sure to keep a safe distance.

you can sometimes become too cautious and not complete the task you set out to do.

however, you can become complacent in your motions and get burned again.

so, be careful and be aware of your surroundings, but don't become blinded or stuck in a rut.

just keep ironing.
