Situations where you’re in over your head

In Over Your Head

• The enemy is smarter, more powerful, stronger, more intelligent, more dextrous, more efficient than you
• You simply don’t have the resources to play this game (money, social currency, bandwidth)
• Your skill level isn’t there
• You don’t have the qualifications, membership levels, or status to play this game
• You haven’t proven your value, and the game is rigged to prevent that
• There are hidden costs you weren’t expecting
• There are side effects you didn’t know would happen
• There are consequences that you didn’t anticipate
