One ecologist has shared a story of how bottlenose dolphins saved....
Maddalena Bearzi, president and co-founder of the Ocean Conservation Society, said she was following a group of bottlenose dolphins when one of them broke away, which in turn caused the others to follow.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are we able to learn from past mistakes and avoid making the same mistakes again?
History repeats itself, because we continue to make the same mistakes repeatedly. We make mistakes and fail to learn. We don't change. We become complacent. We settle for mediocrity.
History also repeats itself because we keep believing the same old stories. We live in a world where we've been conditioned to believe that there are fixed truths and immutable laws. That we cannot do anything to affect them.
This is a way to stop us from thinking critically. The ability to question authority. To challenge assumptions. When we do not question, we stagnate. If we don't grow we stagnate. And when we stagnate, we repeat the same mistakes.
However, history does not repeat itself because we keep making the same mistakes. History repeats itself because we refuse to learn from our mistakes and instead continue to make the same ones over and over.
Change your perception of the world and yourself to stop the cycle. Nothing is permanent. All things are subject to constant change.
Uncertainty is key to breaking the cycle. Accept that things can go wrong. Accepting that failure may be possible. Accepting that failure is possible.
Accept that you may not reach your goals. Acceptance of this fact is okay. But, don't let it stop you from striving to improve.
Holding on to the past will keep you stuck. If you believe there are only certain truths, it will be impossible to move forward.
To achieve freedom, you must be open to change. If you want progress, you need to let go of control.
Who said that history doesn't teach the ignorant?
While we all would love to live in an ideal world that everyone learns from past mistakes, it is not possible to learn from our own mistakes.
Experience it wrong is the best way to learn.
The only real mistake is not trying to ensure you do it right the first time.
As long as you keep making changes, you'll eventually find out why you made the change in the first place.
You might even discover that you could have done it better the first time.
But that doesn't mean you shouldn't try again. This means that you have learned a lot.
While you may not be able avoid making mistakes, there are ways to minimize them. This is the difference that makes the difference of success and failure.
It all starts with acknowledging your mistakes. Next, look at your mistakes objectively and ask yourself "What have I learned?"
When you're open with yourself, you will see that your failures are not failures. They are learning opportunities.
Thomas Edison was the victim of this fate. He failed many other times before he inventing the lightbulb.
He didn't let his failures discourage him. Instead, he used each one as an opportunity to improve his design.
And over time, he invented the most popular form of lighting today.
So, if you fail, don't get discouraged. Learn from your mistakes. Use them.
And then try again.
What Can We Learn From Abraham Lincoln?
Abraham Lincoln once said, "I am slow learning; very quick forgetting."
He was conscious of how important it was for him to keep learning. He also understood that he would eventually have to learn new habits.
The same holds true for our businesses. No matter how well we plan for success, there will be times when we hit roadblocks and find ourselves stuck in an unproductive rut.
It is crucial to continue to learn and grow. If we are to achieve the pinnacle, we must keep learning.
Lincoln had the right mindset. He realized that he could not stop learning, even though he was able to be more productive in his business.
There are two types. Two types of entrepreneurs exist: those who stay busy and those with smart ideas.
Those who are busy concentrate on growing their businesses. They focus on customer service and marketing strategies.
Although they may feel they have achieved something significant, they often miss the mark. They won't be able to sustain their growth if they don't also work smarter.
What sets successful entrepreneurs apart? You are able to adapt quickly to changing conditions.
Successful entrepreneurs are always looking for ways to improve the products and services they offer when faced with difficulties.
However, most entrepreneurs stick to old-fashioned methods that no longer work. They won't change until their business is destroyed.
It is essential to learn both the art of adapting and self-reflection in order for success.
What are three lessons you can learn about history?
History is full of examples of how we can learn from our mistakes. We can apply them to today's business challenges and turn them into opportunities for growth.
We have learned from the past that there are always other ways to do things. There are always people out there who think outside the box and take risks that make them stand out.
History shows us that often, it's the underdogs and not the winners who win. If you ever feel lost, overwhelmed or stuck, remember the times when the underdog prevailed.
You can learn from the past, and bring those lessons into the future. Learn from others' successes and failures.
These lessons can help you improve the success rate.

How To
Discovery of Penicillin: Successful Inventions Made by Accident
How did penicillin get created?
Penicillin was discovered accidentally when Alexander Fleming noticed mold growing on some bacteria cultures he had left out. He believed that mold might kill the bacteria and therefore he attempted to find a solution.
Penicillin was able to kill the mold. Then he discovered that it could also be used to fight bacteria-related infections. Penicillin's discovery was one of most important medical breakthroughs. It saved millions of lives, and it changed the course forever of medicine.
At first, Alexander Fleming didn't know that his finding would be so important. No one else knew the same. Penicillin would soon be a powerful antibiotic.
Scientists discovered penicillin could be used to treat bacterial infections, but this was not until after World War II. The U.S. Army asked Dr. Fleming in 1945 if penicillin could be used to treat soldiers with wounds infected by deadly germs. Dr. Fleming consented to try.
It turned out that penicillin was effective against many different kinds of infection. Penicillin was an invaluable lifesaver for wounded soldiers in World War II. It was also used to save the lives of many doctors in post-war Germany.
Dr. Fleming did not expect that his discovery would have such a profound impact. He wanted to make sure mold wouldn't grow on bacteria cultures that he had previously studied. But he couldn't imagine how this simple experiment would lead to an incredible medical breakthrough.
Truth is that most discoveries every day don’t appear to add up to anything significant. These discoveries are nothing more than experiments, done for no particular purpose.
You can see how even seemingly small experiments can have a profound impact on the course of history.
It is often the most important discovery that seems to have no commonality. Like penicillin. Photography. Or electricity. Or even computers.
Invention does not happen simply because someone thinks up a brilliant idea. It happens because someone is faced with a problem. And then, they solve that problem through experimentation.
