Think Anew

“The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew and act anew.” ~Abraham Lincoln

Albert Einstein said that "you can't solve a problem at the same level of thinking that it was created at." You need to "think anew and act anew." Take a look at Lincolns quote...it's almost as if he was talking about today!!

"The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the occasion." Sound or feel familiar? Are you having difficulty in these times? Are you rising to meet the occasion? Or are you just "doing the best you can?" Unfortunately, most people are only doing the "best they can," not really rising to meet the occasion. Or setting the occasion to only be "they best they can."

"Think anew." When was the last time that you thought anew? Most people haven't had a new or original thought in years. Break out of your familiar zone(comfort zone) and THINK NEW THOUGHTS!!! Growth only happens when you leave your familiar zone (comfort zone).

Know. Be Known. Make A Difference!
