Industrialist Anand Mahindra usually keeps his followers entertained by posting viral images or videos. He has performed it after once again. The Chairman of the Mahindra Group tweeted a funny video but there is more to it than just humour. He has added more which means to the video by dropping a life lesson in his caption. The video, initially shared by a user named Clayton Cubitt, shows a dog standing at a wooden door frame. The glass from the door frame has been taken out, but the dog thinks that the glass obstruction is intact.
While its owner calls it to step out, the dog does not leap by way of the frame but waits for the door to be opened. To that finish, he also keeps pawing at the door, not realising that he’s absolutely free to move out. We hear the owners laughing at the dog’s behaviour.
For Mr Mahindra, the video explained the significance of not falling into a rut. He shared the video though adding a business enterprise tip: “No better way of illustrating our addiction to habit…The most valuable skill in business today is knowing how to break free,” he wrote.

Many Twitter customers agreed with Mr Mahindra’s stance. A user acknowledged that the video was funny but it reflected how human minds also work. “Though it is shown by a dog’s habits it shows our mindsets also,” wrote the user.
Old habits are pretty stubborn which do not go away in a day. Though it is shown by a dog’s habits but it shows our mindsets also.

One user wrote, “Habit conditions your mind. Focus on your activity to improve results. I would love to see someone showing me a similar habit of mine.”
Indeed it is. Habit circumstances your thoughts. Focus on your activity to increase outcome.
I would like to see a person displaying me equivalent habit of mine.

Another user noted that this was accurate not only in business enterprise but in numerous walks of life. “Change and adaptation to changes is the quality that has made humans evolve,” they wrote. They added, “The future belongs to those who won’t be caged by limitations.”
Not only in business enterprise in just about every stroll of life
Student, housewife, experts
Change & adaptation to modifications is the top quality that has made humans to evolve
The future belongs to these who wont be caged by limitations

A user discovered that the dog’s behaviour in the video represented Ivan Pavlov’s experiments and Pavlov’s theory of classical conditioning. Ivan Pavlov was a noted Russian physiologist who experimented on the conditioned behaviour of dogs amongst other experiments.

Mr Anand Mahindra’s tweet did not only spark up really serious discussions on the human thoughts and the function of conditioning in our adaptation. But the tweet also gave rise to witty comments. One user compared the dog’s behaviour with the tendency of humans to swipe up any lighted screen, even if it is not a touch phone. Her’s what they tweeted:
Very accurate …like how we hold swiping at any lighted screen in front of us… even although it is not a ‘Touch Screen’ ????

Indeed, the tweet shows how difficult the human thoughts can behave by way of habitual conditioning.
