Okay, sure, there are ways to cook them that are harder, but the vast majority of the ways people eat eggs are pretty simple. Basted is a way to cook them that comes out a lot like poached, but it’s more foolproof - it’s my wife’s favorite.
Someone else gave elaborate instructions for scrambling that would work well. I usually just melt some butter over medium heat, crack the egg into it, wait like 30 to 60 seconds, stir it up with a spatula, wait another minute or two, then turn/stir the hunks so that any runny parts are against the pan and give it maybe another minute.
Well I had a heated pan on high and I cracked an egg into it… and then I kept having a raw egg floating around in the pan. After poking at it for some time it started cooking and after more poking it did scramble, so I did succeed in the end but I also managed to fail the cooking part of it.
Eggs are one of the easier things to cook - what way are you trying to cook them?
Rolled Japanese style, aka tamagoyaki. That is really difficult.
Over easy is as easy as the name though.

Scrambled. I have managed to fail that one, it did not scrambled or cook.

You don’t want the pan too hot, and you need a fat. Otherwise you were probably about right.
Thank you
