‘The definition of insanity is continuing to do the same thing over and over, and then expecting different results,’ Einstein famously stated.
This follows on from Presupposition #3. Consider the feedback, then if you want a different result, do something different. And yet so often we will go about our lives, doing the same thing but expecting a different result. As if there’s some magical intervention that will happen and make everything all different. Tips for using this presupposition:Stop. Consider: are you getting the results you want? If not, then try something different. ANYTHING different. Often the freedom of just stepping away from a problem will give us a different viewpoint, and allow us to get a resolution. So don’t think too hard – just do something different instead. |
