Today’s quote from Albert Einstein highlights the concept that to address and resolve problems effectively, we often need to change our approach or mindset. The quote implies that there are problems or challenges that need solving. It suggests that these problems were, in some way, created or contributed to by a certain way of thinking or a particular mindset. Einstein then advocated for a shift in thinking. To solve the problem, we must adopt a different, innovative, or more adaptive mindset. By emphasising the inadequacy of using the same kind of thinking, he warns against repeating the same mistakes or patterns that led to the problem in the first place. It encourages a break from the status quo and a willingness to explore new ideas and strategies. This quote underscores the importance of creativity, open-mindedness, and adaptability in problem-solving. It reminds us that to overcome challenges effectively, we should be willing to question our existing perspectives and be open to new ways of thinking and approaching problems.

We’re in the last quarter of 2023 and 2024 is beckoning us. There is a sense of anticipation and reflection and it’s time to take stock of what we did this year and if we managed to accomplish our 2023 goals. The arrival of a new year symbolises a fresh start, a chance to set new objectives, and a renewed commitment to personal growth and development. It’s a moment to harness the lessons learned and use them as stepping stones towards a more fulfilling and successful future.

BB will enlist later this month and I don’t know how we will react. It’s not as if we didn’t know this day would come, but when reality hits, it’s a completely different ball game altogether. Well, I have a few weeks to adjust to this new reality. And I will share my feelings here.

That’s all from me this week. Stay safe, stay positive and keep smiling!
