6 lessons from Albert Einstein's success
Motivation / / December 19, 2019
Learning is never too late. Especially in men of genius, which, in practice, convinced of the correctness of their assumptions, or at least confirmed their equations.
Do not stop learning
The only thing that interferes with my further education - this is my education.
Sometimes, in order to continue to absorb new knowledge and move forward, you need to finally discard old baggage. Some information is still valuable, but some have long been out of date, but we are still clinging for her. Namely it prevents us to acquire new skills.
The world is not standing still. If people do not know how to get rid of this baggage, we'd still believed that the earth is flat and rests on three pillars and the tortoise.
Stay curious
I have no special talents. I just passionately curious.
Some came out of the age howcast consider that impolite to ask a lot of issues. Some manage to preserve this valuable mixture of curiosity and childlike throughout life. Yes, wise people are fond of saying that curiosity killed the cat. But many cats it saved lives.
Curiosity can be compared with bright handkerchiefs that you start pulling out of the magician's hat. At first it seems that he was there alone. But for the first showing of the second, and for the second - the third and so on! You are wondering what will happen next when they finally run out?! Sometimes it seems that this bunch has no end.
Similarly, with the question by asking one, you will find an answer to it, which in turn pulls the more questions. And you can not be sure how long will this chain and what it eventually would lead.
rejoice errors
He who never made a mistake never tried anything new.
The truth is as old as the world: the mistakes learn. More often on their own, rarely - on others. For all its troubles mistakes help us to avoid similar situations in the future and provide the necessary expertise for the continuation of the path initiated.
Admit their mistakes and their processing is given to many people is quite difficult and painful. But that is what makes it possible to determine how good a selected direction. In the end, thanks to the errors have been many ingenious and delicious things, starting with the buns with raisins and ending with new chemical compounds.
Change your attitude and you will change your life
We can not solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when they were created.
to find way out, You need to look at it from the other side. Sometimes we get the right answer from the people, from whom it was least expected. And all because their course of thinking is different from ours and they can observe what we do not see.
The same goes for the relationship to a situation that can not be corrected. Or to any past events. Physically, we can no longer change anything, but we can change our attitude to it.
When we change our attitude towards the world, the world responds and revises its attitude towards us. ;)
Play it safe
Common sense - is a collection of prejudices acquired by age 18.
This does not mean you have to throw in all the adventures at breakneck speed. Common sense - is a drug that is useful in moderate doses. And sometimes it is a jailer for the brilliant ideas that can cool change our lives for the better. Because sometimes the most insane ideas and actions are most correct.
Always give the full
You must learn the rules of the game. And then you have to play better than anyone else.
that achieve success, You need to make every effort. But the fulfillment of a wish does not mean that you can fold the handle and rest on our laurels. If we do that, sooner or later someone else will face us from the summit.
To always be ahead of the curve, we need to hone their skills until they are perfect. And even that does not give us the right to stop. Because this crazy world never stands still, there may even change the laws of physics, which seemed unshakable.
