If a frog is put in water which is already boiling, it will immediately jump out. But if a frog is put in room temperature water, and the temperature is slowly increased, the frog will continue adapting to it until it’s too late.

The pace and focus of today’s society have conditioned us to be much like the second frog. We adapt and adapt and adapt, and then find ourselves so out-of-balance that it’s difficult to get out of the pot before it boils.
