The video “The Amazing Intelligence of Crows” aside from being highly entertaining to watch made an excellent point. Well, it actually made more than one point but I’m just going to focus on one here.

The thing that really struck me after watching the video is that I need to remember to think outside the box so that I can change liabilities into assets. I’m not going into more detail here because I don’t want to spoil the video for you. You’ll know what I mean, after you’ve watched it. Enjoy.

I’m going to show the video to my students and have that discussion about turning negatives into positives. I wonder what their reaction to the video will be?
