Last Thursday in class we talked  about the first half of "How we decide". I enjoyed the  discussion with the visual games we played and how in my mind I set limits. I didn't think outside the box. After that day in class I started to apply it to all things I did afterwards. It has given me more confidence, and now I approach all my classes in the same way. Just approach things with multiple perspectives before you decide on just one solution or you have believed it  imposable. There is always an answer we just have to weed it out.

How can we as people in a situation like the forest fire keep from panicking like the smoke jumpers did? Just as it describes in the book in a dangerous situation we as humans almost always panic. If you going to panic, then panic and get it out of the way. Once it is out of the way, you logic kicks in and your brain starts to subconsciously figure ways out. Realistically the ideas we have will challenge and defy physics. but your gut or feelings tell you is going to work. I think a lot of Wag Dodges' decision came from his many years experience. I kind of view Wag Dodge as an original outside the box thinker. We as humans at our darkest hour seem to focus and find a way to evolve beyond what we know is possible to something we know is imposable and just might work.

Would the plane have been able to land if the engines were not on the bottom of the wings?In the case of the pilots landing a plane with no hydraulics a lot of factors went into the survival of the crew and passengers. It was in ingenious of the pilots to use each engines to steer. I think they would have still landed it. The pilots would have had to think outside the box, just like we did in class on Thursday. These first four chapters have show me that even when we think there is no other way out we have more oppositions, we just haven't seen them yet. I use my own life experience to answer  the questions I posed. i have to children, and they are always hurting themselves. i have made numerous trips to the E.R. The one thing i always remember when facing a E.R. moment is not to panic. I know they are in pain but if you lose control, it only compounds the situation.
