March of the Lemmings

“It is human nature to think wisely and act foolishly.”
– Anatole France

Whether true or not, it is legendary that lemmings all follow each other. Only after it is too late do they realize they will soon experience the same fate as the hapless travelers in front of them.

Why is it necessary to make the same mistakes as our predecessors?

Running with the herd often seems to be a sensible thing to do. We get comfort knowing that we have other people whose beliefs and actions re-enforce our own. Whether with our choices of lifestyle, investments, TV shows, or religious beliefs, we feel better knowing that we are not alone.

Unsuspecting lemmings went over the cliff in droves during the March 2000 collapse of the stock market. Wouldn’t that have been a parade you would have liked to miss?

Learning to think for ourselves and deciding when it is safer to leave the pack than to continue running with it requires independent thinking and the courage to act on our beliefs.
