Albert Einstein was right again!

Albert Einstein once said, "You cannot solve a problem with the same thinking that caused the problem."

We all run into problems (or challenges as I like to call them). In our journey in life we get to these challenges mainly because of the way we think. The way we think (our paradigms) brought us to where we are today and if today has a challenge it could be attributed, amongst other reasons, to the way we thought yesterday and the day before that.

Expand your thinking, think differently, shift your paradigm, but don't use the same thinking to solve the problem. It is that "same thinking" that caused the problem in the first place and what makes you think the "same" thinking is (now) suddenly going to solve the problem? "You cannot solve a problem with the same thinking that caused the problem."

Change is no small money

We live in a world of change. It is everywhere and here to stay. The older our planet gets, the more we understand our lives are soaked with change.

Change like God, is a constant. A constant never changes; it is established and stays the same forever.

God will always be true to who he is. He is God and that is who he will be, forever. His character and identity is not influenced by anything in the universe. He will never become someone else and no one can stop him from being God.

This same principle applies to change. As said, change is also a constant. What will not change is that everything will change. Although we are unsure of many things, we can be sure that everything will change. We might not know exactly what the future holds, but we know it holds change. It is pregnant with change and every now and then gives birth to the life in its womb. We cannot escape the truth that everything in and around us is changing – constantly!
