Be like Ooblek

Bruce Lee said, “Be like water”. I say, “Be like Ooblek”.

Ooblek is a simple cornstarch + water mixture you can make at home; and here’s the interesting thing: Ooblek is a non-Newtonian fluid. Run your fingers through it slowly, and it behaves like a liquid; but punch it hard and it feels like a solid! The harder you hit, the harder it gets.

When the going gets tough, the tough don’t just get going. They get tougher.

Be like Ooblek.
