Many people love to quote Albert Einstein and his definition of “insanity,” which is: “doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.” But he never said that. What Einstein actually said was, “We cannot solve our problems, with the same thinking we used when we created them.” What this means is that, as humans, we have a natural tendency to develop routines and patterns of behavior, but when we find ourselves in trouble, we must not slide back into the same patterns of behavior and routines that got us there in the first place.
