Why is it that we do the same things and expect a different result?
How many times have you used the same marketing in the hope that it will get a better response this time?
Or perhaps approached a work colleague to talk to them about their shortcomings in a confrontational way and ended up having the same argument?
It just doesn’t work like that, there has to be a change in mindset, and a different approach is often needed.
As Entrepreneurs, we are all about resilience, and keep going when things get tough. Yes, you certainly do need resilience, but it has to be combined with “thinking”. What is the outcome you desire? You have to define the goal, and take the emotion out of the equation (Einstein knew all about that).
Once you have the clarity you are better able to see the solution.
To quote the master himself:
“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.”
Albert Einstein
I find that if I take myself out of the game for a while, and go for a run, things start to clear. Sometimes space is all I need to start solving a problem.
This week have a think about your problems/challenges and how you could change the approach to finding a solution.
Have a problem-solving week guys.
