I agree with you on consistency, it really is important! I don't think we can always get thesame result when we apply thesame principle though, that's because with life, we are not always in control of the situation around us and things might go wrong and out of control sometimes whereas with baking, one is always in control (of the temperature, ingredients etc.). I think it is also important that when "life happens" we don't get weighed down but try to get back on track. So, I think success isn't always predictable.
