The question of living relevant lives in the era of runaway tractors is a challenging question to answer. (Read this before continuing further) https://santhoshsramblings.blogspot.com/2024/01/the-runaway-tractor.html Most days, I find myself behaving like an ostrich. “T he ostrich effect, also known as the ostrich problem, is a cognitive bias that describes how people often avoid negative information, including feedback that could help them monitor their goal progress. Instead of dealing with the situation, we bury our heads in the sand, like ostriches. This avoidance can often make things worse, incurring costs that we might not have had to pay if we had faced things head-on.” https://thedecisionlab.com/biases/ostrich-effect# On other days, I feel like a meerkat. The meerkat effect is defined as sticking its head up to look around whenever something might happen, in hyper vigilance, but then digging a tunnel and hiding. Their theme song is “Dig a tunnel before the hyenas come.”
