This isn't really about sushi

Jiro Ono is a 85 year old three Michelin star chef.

I must clarify - he is 85 years old - and still working. 
Still upholding his three Michelin stars.

When I feel like I am getting old, when I feel like complacent, 
when I feel like something is just pretty good or good enough, 
I watch this as a reminder of sorts.


 This movie reinvigorates you in a way that is in real time.

 This is not about overnight stardom, this is not a quick fix, or a Malcolm Gladwell-esque, "Oh, just put it on the middle shelf and paint in lavender and it will sell like hotcakes" message.

If anything, this is sort of like the Karate Kid for sushi makers.
