INSTINCT

Instinct is sometimes natural as in the case of a new born turtle which moves towards the sea.  Instinct is something which is done without any previous experience.    Whether right or wrong and whether we like or not we have a tendency to follow the instinct.

The new born goslings follow the mother wherever she moves.  This is the natural instinct of goslings.
The instinctive behaviour sometimes is also weird and hard to explain.  For instance see this extraordinary video of how the group of bulls are running behind a remote control car:


We are all born with certain inner instinct.  Have you ever tried to bring out those instincts?

In sports, we often hear this phrase "killer instinct", which is used when the aggression required to take control of the game is not found in the player.

We need to create space for ourselves and find the time and concentration to bring out the innate capabilities and innovative thinking which is deep inside our mind.  In the modern world where we are controlled and consumed by digital devices and gadgets, the human mind is diverted and distracted very often.  It is upto us to find the time and move away from the gadgets to think.

I remember a caption that was on the T shirt of a dear friend of mine "When I knew all the answers they went and changed the questions".  You can still find the answers for the changed questions if you have the ability to think and use your natural instincts.
