Look for a Boy Scout manual, used at Salvation Army thrift shop or Goodwill, and they teach you how. It takes practice.
As a practical matter, I used to break off a small piece of an artificial fire log, and if it was rainy, and the Boy Scouts were cold, I whipped out that small piece, which is sort of wax and sawdust, and used if for a fast start.
If it was like 20 below zero, I would take small cans sold at sporting goods stores, and light it, it was a fast start. I just build a fire over it after I lit it, sacrificing it to the cause, and let the can and all burn up.
But, Boy Scouts for advancement have to light fires with matches, not gas; not paraffin; not Coleman fuel; not fire logs. it is part of the Scout training plan to develop leadership and confidence in the woods.
