"Here in the Mojave desert animals have had millions of years to adapt to the harsh environment, but the lizardu00a0-- he is going to die," proclaims a 'wise' owl when the protagonist of the latest animated film, Rango, sets foot on arid land. The owl's words might also ring true for the novice entering the cutthroat working world, devoid of any survival skills. But Rango does survive, eventually going on to save the day, and the town of Dirt. The survival lessons we can all learn from the titular hero, voiced by Johnny Depp.

It's okay to be different
Rango is the chameleon, who can't "blend in". But it is eventually that perceived weakness, which eventually becomes a source of strength for the "lonely lizard". Rango's difference, backed up by bravado (and some luck!) that play a role in him becoming the sheriff of Dirt. It's not always about putting your head down and working hard that brings you recognition, but working smart and letting seniors know what you're doing.
