#614 tame

It is easy for people to say that "it can't be done" or that certain things are the way they are. Kevin Richardson didn't listen to those excuses.

Richardson is a South African zoologist who has spent his life working with animals on the African Savanna.  Through his decades of experience, he has become accepted by wild animals to the extent that certain lions now treat him as a member of their pride.

I encourage you to watch the first two minutes of the amazing video where a wild lion runs out of the plains and gives Richardson a hug.  Literally a hug like it was a puppy greeting its owner.  It is remarkable footage:

The next time you think a task is impossible, pull up this video and watch it.  If Richardson can befriend these lions, surely you can learn to tame the beast working in the next office.
