▼5 Metaphors for Survival▼
READ, CLICK & ENJOY. SIMPLE.
Well after our latest Safari trip, I was surprised to be back on the Serengeti.
But creativity has a way of leading you to places. So, as usual, I dutifully
succumbed and like a slow starter in Boxing, African Cats had my
complete attention the moment I decided it's on. No. This is not
a review. Actually, I avoid movie reviews because I don't need
another's (negative) opinion of art—great, misunderstood,
or unappreciated. But before long, I learned 5 great me-
taphors of survival. One: "Buffalo are very grumpy." If
you're a Merrill Lynch client or employee, that may
strike a certain cord. Two: "Never get fresh with
an Ostrich". Three: "Even little dogs bite back".
Remember this blog? Four: "Hyenas". Most
important of all: "Never mess with Lions".
Unable to connect the dots? No problem.
Susan Jacoby already warned: "Without
a strong body of knowledge the more
time we spend looking at things on
[computer] screens, the less smar-
ter we become". The hyperlinked
content above includes Chinese
subtitle, and subtly addresses
diversity with funny lines like
"The savanna is the greatest
schoolyard, but some of the
other kids are a bit diffe-
up curious leads to an
inability to connect
dots which in turn
leads to confusing
the message and
the medium &
that's how
you miss
the good
stuff
