Life lessons from Einstein

10 very good life lessons from Albert Einstein:
1. Follow your curiosity.
2. Perseverance is priceless.
3. Focus on the present.
4. The imagination is powerful. According to Einstein it's more important than knowledge.
5. Make mistakes, i.e. try new things, and take on challenges.
6. Live in the moment. This seems a little contradictory to the imagination one.
7. Create value. Don't try to be successful instead be valuable - success will find you. I agree.
8. Don't expect different results if you keep doing the same thing over and over again. This is so obvious but how many of us just keep repeating the same behaviours or ways of thinking and expect magically our lives to change?
9. Knowledge comes from experience; knowledge without experience is just information. For example, someone can explain to you how to ride a bike but until you do it yourself you'll never actually know how to do it. Life is a lot like that I guess.
10. Learn the rules of the game and then commit to playing better than anyone else. Even if you never become the best by aiming high you will go further.

I discovered this link from a discussion on Free-Talk Live ( I am telling you its a brilliant source of info not just political but about life in general.) . The website is a blog about life skills and self improvement and I have been reading avidly for a few days now.

The url is quite comical too http://www.dumblittleman.com/
