The Weakest Link - on Friday!

The weakest link...

Just finished watching Survivor - Cook Islands
and saw Sekou got voted out!
He apparently was the weakest link...
Why? Probably because he stood out to lead?
Is that the real reason?
Do we always boot out those whom stand out?

Yes and no...!
When it's at the group forming stage,
if you're not too careful and become too outstanding,
That's the outcome you'll get - the boot!
Perhaps everyone didn't have time to get to know
everyone else as yet...

Whatever it is, Sekou paid the price!

It's all about group dynamics...
Complicated by various individuals' self concerns to survive...
If we feel threatened by another, we activate the fight or flight
syndrome... we wish the "outcast" out of the game...
So how do we manage so that we remain???

hmmm...

Guess there must be a strategy developed, and strong links established
But in the end, its a game of wit and just anybody can and will betray the next.
Its a tough dog eat dog world, but one's gotta do what one needs to survive.
Afterall, that's in the name of the game!

Blue skies, always!
