the old mind set was flight or fight.Also fight is the preferred mode.
The changed mind set is stay and play.
This is not a passive mode. First we treat the environment not as a threat for our existence but as a resource for our well being. To play effectively and creatively we have to be observant or mindful or aware. The environment keeps changing all the time. Being mindful allows us to bring in new ways of playing with it.
It is a friendly competition. Winning and losing is taken out of the equation.
