The 3 Day Flea Experiment | Are You Strong or Weak Minded? | Social Conditioning

The 3 day Flea Experiment!

Scientists conducted this social and behavioral experiment using Fleas. Yeah, like from dogs lol that was the quickest relevant reference that came to me haha. Ok \

200 fleas were put into a clear mason jar or…”moonshine jar”

Initially, the fleas were jumping around, hopping out, very sporadic, and out of control.

Let's think about that for sec

New environment

New location

New thoughts

More fleas - more problems right haha. 

Think about that for a sec.

Let's change the analogy. 

 Put you in place of that flea..How would you react, respond, think, or do?

We’ll come back to that, Iet that marinate in your consciousness for a min. 

So, the scientist conducting the experiment. Realized in the “findings”

If they left the lid on for 3 days or more and then removed the lid after those 3 days.

The fleas jumped, but to the extent of the opening of the top of the mason jar.

There was no lid but they limited their jump-height to the height of the lid when it was on. 

Because for the first 3 days the fleas would jump but hit their heads on the lid. 

The fleas ended up being conditioned in only 3 days

They never tried escaping

They just accepted their new reality.

Even with the lid off after the 3 days, they just went with the flow

But if one panicked, they all panicked.

One calm, all calm.

Calm or blinded or not exposed or unaware of the lid? Or manipulated? Or socially conditioned?

Like the majority of us

Fixed or Growth mentality. 

Like the jar and the fleas.

Don’t let your surroundings be your only stage in life. 

So if one flea is chill, they’ll all be chill. Who is going to be that one person or flea?

Within your group of friends

Within your families and immediate families.

Who says, change starts today, and starts with us or myself!

Were done living like this

Were done with this grassroot mentality

Life isn’t about surviving, it's about evolving. 

And what life doesn’t explain to us, is that you have to take a dip in both of these.

Recognizing when to play offense or defense is vital in life. Situational Awareness.

Understand and learn.

The law of neutrality- we teach this at Mogressive Coaching. 

When to stay neutral

When to speak up.

When to listen

When to play offense or defense
