Read one interesting article about this
Here are some excerpts
What would happen if you were to throw a frog into hot water? The frog would instantly jump out to save dear life. But what would happen if the frog was placed in water at room temperature and then heated up at a very slow rate? The frog would most likely fail to jump out in time and hence, get boiled.
Of course, you must have guessed by now that this syndrome is more telling about errors in human cognition than about the anatomy of a frog. Like the frog, people, businesses and governments too fail to notice gradual but definite deteriorations in the external environment. It is only when things reach the 'boiling point' that they tend to realise the quantum of the crisis. But by then it's already too late. |
