At this point, it’s hard to imagine things getting any worse. And I’ve seen kids stick their arms up into a giant gak-filled nose during the Slopstacle Course.

We Put A Falcon And A Rabbit In The Same Room. What Happened Next Will Not Surprise You.
As humans, we are so quick to default to preconceptions, but these mental shortcuts often harm our way of thinking. In many cases, preconceived notions blind us from approaching situations in new ways. To challenge that idea, we put a falcon and a rabbit in the same room. You’re probably thinking, “Oh, the falcon immediately killed the rabbit,” because that’s what you’ve been taught to think.

And in this particular case, yes, that is exactly what happened. Almost instantly. Your preconceptions were 100 percent spot-on.

It’s so beautiful when the animal kingdom surprises us, when predators don’t act like senseless killing machines. Unfortunately, this was not one of those times.

The Only 31 Things Standing Between You and Your Dreams
11. Crippling doubt: Maybe you don’t really have anything to offer the world. Maybe you’re already doing exactly what you should be doing and you should just learn to be happy with it. But even if that’s the case, so what? You’ve got this!
29. Thousands of people who are more talented than you: There are so many people who are more capable than you who are trying to do the exact thing you want to do. No biggie, though!
