My name is Anthony Gilardi… and I train Hippos!
“In the wild, Hippos do not have any natural predators, nothing hunts them, they are not prey. Nature did not design them to move backwards or side to side. They have complete tunnel vision, never being distracted.
When a Hippo wants water or food or needs something primal…they will see it in the distance and begin to move. They walk straight ahead at a steady pace towards what they want…stomping on and crushing anything in their path. Not maliciously…they simply do not see anything else except what they need. They will not stop or slow their pace until they’ve arrived at their goal.
In our world, there are two types of people…the Hippo that moves straight ahead towards its goal and the little bird standing still pecking for crumbs that the Hippo passes along the way.
If a little bird dares to get in the path of a Hippo…it gets stomped!
My name is Anthony Gilardi…and I train Hippos!”
