Let me share with you a couple of stories. I don't know why both of them are about frogs:
------------------------------------------------
STORY 1:
Some psycology students put a frog in a pan of boiling water. It kicked and jumped and somehow rescued itself quickly.
They then put a frog in a pan with normal water. It was a pretty comfortable surrounding and the frog had no reason to jump out. The temperature was increased slowly after that. The frog tried to adjust with the surroundings but did not attempt to leave. After a while the water was boiling and the frog was dead.
-------------------------------------------------
STORY 2:
This is actually a Q&A.
Question: There are three small frogs sitting on three lotus leaves floating in a lake. They are all bored of just sitting there. One of them decides to leave the comfort, take a plunge into water and explore the new world. How many remain sitting on the leaves?
Answer: 3. Why? The frog just decided to take the plunge. It didn't actually do it.
-------------------------------------------------
These stories kept haunting me when I took the plunge. I set a goal for myself to do better than the frogs :-)
