"Jumping Through Hoops" in Life

Many people emphasize that exams, like many other responsibilities, are "hoops that we all must jump through."

However, consider the following: the dolphin who best jumps through hoops will only end up at Sea World. Conversely, the dolphin who refuses to play some one else's games and dares to swim out into the ocean has the world within its grasp.

Some dolphins may enjoy swimming in circles and spending their lives jumping through hoops at Sea World, but if I was a dolphin I certainly wouldn't choose this path.

As a human, why should things be any different?
