It’s so true! I’m reading Imaginable by Jane McGonigal and she talks about “normalcy bias” and says, “If you don’t want to be shocked or blindsided by possible future crises or disasters, you have to overcome your normalcy bias and convince your brain that these strange events can happen—no matter how “unthinkable” they seem to you today.”

What’s bizarre to me is how at this point though is how “strange events” are actually the norm and still so many people have their head in the sand. It applies to so many scenarios in the world, the workplace, and schools.

Wow, this is a brilliant analogy. I'm going to be thinking about this all day.
