-Balking Pattern is used to prevent an object from executing certain code if it is an
-incomplete or inappropriate state
+
+Balking Pattern is used to prevent an object from executing a certain code if it is in an incomplete 
+or inappropriate state.
+
+## Explanation
+
+Real world example
+
+> There's a start-button in a washing machine to initiate the laundry washing. When the washing 
+> machine is inactive the button works as expected, but if it's already washing the button does
+> nothing.
+
+In plain words
+
+> Using the balking pattern, a certain code executes only if the object is in particular state.
+
+Wikipedia says
+
+> The balking pattern is a software design pattern that only executes an action on an object when 
+> the object is in a particular state. For example, if an object reads ZIP files and a calling 
+> method invokes a get method on the object when the ZIP file is not open, the object would "balk" 
+> at the request.
+
+**Programmatic Example**
+
+In this example implementation, `WashingMachine` is an object that has two states in which it can 
+be: ENABLED and WASHING. If the machine is ENABLED, the state changes to WASHING using a thread-safe
+method. On the other hand, if it already has been washing and any other thread executes `wash()` 
+it won't do that and returns without doing anything.
+
+Here are the relevant parts of the `WashingMachine` class.
+
+```java
+@Slf4j
+public class WashingMachine {
+
+  private final DelayProvider delayProvider;
+  private WashingMachineState washingMachineState;
+
+  public WashingMachine(DelayProvider delayProvider) {
+    this.delayProvider = delayProvider;
+    this.washingMachineState = WashingMachineState.ENABLED;
+  }
+
+  public WashingMachineState getWashingMachineState() {
+    return washingMachineState;
+  }
+
+  public void wash() {
+    synchronized (this) {
+      var machineState = getWashingMachineState();
+      LOGGER.info("{}: Actual machine state: {}", Thread.currentThread().getName(), machineState);
+      if (this.washingMachineState == WashingMachineState.WASHING) {
+        LOGGER.error("Cannot wash if the machine has been already washing!");
+        return;
+      }
+      this.washingMachineState = WashingMachineState.WASHING;
+    }
+    LOGGER.info("{}: Doing the washing", Thread.currentThread().getName());
+    this.delayProvider.executeAfterDelay(50, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS, this::endOfWashing);
+  }
+
+  public synchronized void endOfWashing() {
+    washingMachineState = WashingMachineState.ENABLED;
+    LOGGER.info("{}: Washing completed.", Thread.currentThread().getId());
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Here's the simple `DelayProvider` interface used by the `WashingMachine`.
+
+```java
+public interface DelayProvider {
+  void executeAfterDelay(long interval, TimeUnit timeUnit, Runnable task);
+}
+```
+
+Now we introduce the application using the `WashingMachine`.
+
+```java
+  public static void main(String... args) {
+    final var washingMachine = new WashingMachine();
+    var executorService = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(3);
+    for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
+      executorService.execute(washingMachine::wash);
+    }
+    executorService.shutdown();
+    try {
+      executorService.awaitTermination(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
+    } catch (InterruptedException ie) {
+      LOGGER.error("ERROR: Waiting on executor service shutdown!");
+      Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
+    }
+  }
+```
+
+Here is the console output of the program.
+
+```

 ## Applicability
+
 Use the Balking pattern when
 
-* you want to invoke an action on an object only when it is in a particular state
-* objects are generally only in a state that is prone to balking temporarily
-but for an unknown amount of time
+* You want to invoke an action on an object only when it is in a particular state
+* Objects are generally only in a state that is prone to balking temporarily but for an unknown 
+  amount of time
