HOW FEAR CAN STOP YOU FROM ACTING WHEN IT MATTERS THE MOST...........
FIRE!!!! FIRE!!!!!! FIRE!!!!!! SHOUTED ONE LADY WHO WAS IN THE BUILDING, THE ENGINEER PULLED THE FIRE ALARM LEVER BUT TO HIS GREATEST SURPRISE THE OCCUPANT WERE EVEN SCARED OF LEAVING, NOT KNOWING THERE EXIT, HOW PATHETIC HE CRIED.
In fact, many people in the office ignored the fire alarm, and also what they saw happening 131 feet away in the north tower. Some of them went into a meeting. A friend of mine, turned back after walking down several flights of stairs. “she said, ‘I have to go back for my baby pictures,’ and then she never made it out.” The two women who stayed behind on the telephones, and the people who went into the meeting, also lost their lives.
Research has shown that, when a fire alarm rings, people do not act immediately. They talk to each other, and they try to work out what is going on. They stand around.
This should be obvious to anyone who has ever taken part in a fire drill. Instead of leaving a building, we wait. We wait for more clues – the smell of smoke, or advice from someone we trust. But there is also evidence that, even with more information, many of us still won’t make a move.
AFTER MANY YEARS OF RESEARCH I CANT REALLY SAY AM SURPRISE, We resist change. Committing ourselves to a small change, even one that is unmistakably in our best interest, is often more frightening than ignoring a dangerous situation.
