Xyba ... My brain is getting tired and wants a change (MEGA) ... it could be disastrous for the foreseeable future ...

How do you stay so cool, calm, collected, content ... stable, reliable .. etc

Or is there something I don't know?

It's simple. Unfortunately there are too many negatives in life and people grab onto these negs and try their whole lives battling the negatives instead of embracing the positives. I've come to realise, I've gotta exploit the positives. Life is great when you can accept that :D
BTW, this is a great site that can bring inspiration http://zenhabits.net/

how can you forget the salt ? Souvla with no salt is not good . Much Salt and Bay leaves gives a very good taste! lamb of course is the best!

I like to get the charcoal just right, salt the meat a few times during cooking and serve. Keep a close eye on the height of the skewers above the charcoal and the speed of the motor so it cooks perfectly.

Also, if you alternate lamb and pork on the skewer the pork takes up the taste of the lamb.

Exactly cooking it slowly with patience is also a good technique that adds to the taste. if you dont have patientce then you will most likely fail to cook it properly!
