Reminds me of a tiny anecdote:

in junior high, a new guy straight from africa asked to play tic tac toe with us, he never played. So we hustled him a little bit, and quickly he went into open curiosity mode, wanting to know all the rules. He went away for an hour and after beat us all mercilessly :)

I'm very sad about how adult life chaos makes most people turn on stealth enemy mode, or stealth anxious mode.. it require us to become 'hungry' (not to say sharks) to ensure reaching our maximum efficiency.
