Simple answer: cook dinner. See, when you cook, you sometimes burn yourself. If you don't burn yourself the first time, then keep cooking dinner until you do. Eventually after enough dinners and burns, you realize that a bit of heat on the fingers and hands isn't an issue. At that point, you understand that you aren't a little bitch. It's incredibly liberating. My mother cooked dinner everyday for 80+ years. When she was in her 40's, I saw her burn her arm with boiling water. Immediate blistering, 2+ inches long. Really nasty. Even 40 years later, she still had the scar on her arm. Point being - the dear lady didn't stop to tend the giant blister on her arm until dinner was finished. She had a family to feed and nothing was going to get in the way. I've followed in her steps and I cook often. I don't shy away from the heat. Deep fryers, boiling oil, etc. Blisters and burns don't bother me. Try it ... I promise - it's liberating. :)
