Frequently Asked Questions
Can learning about history stop us from repeating past mistakes?
History repeats itself because we keep making similar mistakes over and again. We do not learn from our failures. We don't change. We become complacent. We settle for mediocrity.
Because we continue to believe the same old stories, history repeats itself. We live in a world where we've been conditioned to believe that there are fixed truths and immutable laws. They cannot be changed.
This keeps us from being able to think critically. From challenging authority. By challenging assumptions. We don't grow if we don’t question. And when we don't grow, we stagnate. Stamina is when we continue to make the same mistakes.
However, history does not repeat itself because we keep making the same mistakes. History repeats itself because we don't learn from our errors and keep making the same mistakes.
By changing your outlook on the world and understanding that there is no set way, you can break the cycle. Nothing is permanent. Everything is constantly changing.
The key to breaking the cycle is to embrace uncertainty. Accept that things can go wrong. Accept that failure is possible. Accepting that failure is possible.
Accept that your goals may not be achieved. Acceptance of this fact is okay. But, don't let it stop you from striving to improve.
You will always remain stuck in the past if you hold on to certainty. If you believe there are only certain truths, it will be impossible to move forward.
Freedom is only possible if you are willing to let go. You must let go of control if you want to move forward.
What can we learn from the past?
Three lessons can be learned from history. First, you must do it yourself when you change the world. The second is to ensure that people are ready to accept change in their lives. Third, when you change the future, you have to make it better.
The first lesson is that there are two ways to change the world. One is to fight for it; the other is to create it. Fighting for it is about winning, not remembering why you started fighting.
You can't control how people react to your ideas, but you can control how you present them. If you try and convince someone to do something, it will be a failure. However, if you are determined to motivate someone to take action, you will succeed.
Every great movement began with someone who had an idea and decided that they would act on it. No matter whether you are creating change, or reacting to it. Here are three ways you can make your mark: Be clear about the things you want, be honest with where you came from, be courageous enough to go where no other person has gone before, and be clear about who you are.
The second lesson is that we all have a choice. We can either allow our lives to unfold, or choose to create them. This means that we have to decide what kind life we want. Do we expect someone else to let us live? Or do we want to take charge of our destiny?
I'd argue that we're living in a golden age right now. There are more possibilities than ever before, which has created a lot of excitement. People feel empowered to create their futures, and that's exciting.
It also presents a problem. It is essential to determine what you want, and how you can get it.
For example, let's say you want to buy a house. You could wait and see if someone gives you Home Depot gift certificates. Or, you can ask yourself, "What do I love to be doing?" You can then search for a job where you can do it. Apply for financing.
Now, suppose you were to travel the world. Now, you might wonder "Where would I like to go?" Then, you'd start saving money, researching countries online, talking to friends, etc. You'd then book a ticket.
Let's suppose you don't know what you want. If that were the case, you would probably do one of those things anyway. By asking yourself such questions, you increase the likelihood of getting what your heart desires. This may seem absurd, but it works.
The third lesson is that you can always improve your future no matter what happens. It is easy to see why. Our choices shape who we are and who we become.
You can learn from the mistakes and successes of others and continue to improve until you achieve your goals.
If you don't believe you have something to offer the world, you're already behind. You must believe you are better than you think you are.
Start with what you already know. Start small and build from there. Consider what you have learned over the course of your life. What have you failed to do? What has been your greatest success? How did you overcome obstacles?
Last but not least, remember that no one can stop you from reaching your full potential. You can accomplish anything, no matter what anyone tells you.
In the words of Benjamin Franklin, "Nothing will work unless you do."
Who originally said those who don't learn from history?
We all wish to live in a world where everyone learns from the past, but there are more valuable things than learning from our mistakes.
Experience it wrong is the best way to learn.
It is a mistake to not do it correctly the first time.
As long as you keep making changes, you'll eventually find out why you made the change in the first place.
You might find out that it was easier than you thought.
This doesn't necessarily mean that you should stop trying. It means you've learned a lot.
Although you might not be able make every mistake, it is possible to minimize them. That's what makes the difference between success or failure.
Recognizing your mistakes starts at the beginning. Take a step back and look at your mistakes objectively. Then ask yourself, "What did you learn?"
Being honest with yourself will help you see that your mistakes are only lessons. They can be used as opportunities to grow.
Thomas Edison went through exactly the same thing. He failed many more times before he invented the lightbulb.
He didn't let his failures discourage him. He used every failure as an opportunity to improve the design.
He also invented the most widely used form of lighting, which is still in use today.
So, if you fail, don't get discouraged. Learn from your failures. Please take advantage of them.
Then, try again.
What Can We Learn From Abraham Lincoln?
Abraham Lincoln said that he was slow to learn, but quick to forget.
He was aware of the importance to continue learning, knowing that there would be a time when he would have to relearn his old habits and adopt new ones.
The same is true of our businesses. No matter how well we plan for success, there will be times when we hit roadblocks and find ourselves stuck in an unproductive rut.
This is why it is so important to constantly learn new ways to grow. If we are to achieve the pinnacle, we must keep learning.
Lincoln was the right person. He recognized that while he could become more effective in his business, he couldn't stop learning.
There are two types entrepreneur. Two types of entrepreneurs exist: those who stay busy and those with smart ideas.
Those who keep busy are focused on their business' growth. They are involved in marketing strategies, product development, customer support, and other tasks every day.
They may feel like they've accomplished something meaningful, but often they're missing the mark. These entrepreneurs will not achieve sustainable growth unless they are focused on becoming smarter.
What makes successful entrepreneurs different from average entrepreneurs? Ability to quickly adapt to changing situations.
Successionable entrepreneurs look for ways that they can improve their products or services when faced with difficult situations.
The average businessperson, however, will continue to use outdated methods that don't work. They won't change until their business is destroyed.
You must be able to master both self-reflection and adaptation in order to succeed.

How To
Accidental discoveries lead to the discovery of penicillin
How did penicillin ever become available?
Penicillin was discovered accidentally when Alexander Fleming noticed mold growing on some bacteria cultures he had left out. He believed that mold might kill the bacteria and therefore he attempted to find a solution.
Penicillin was able to kill the mold. Then he discovered that it could also be used to fight bacteria-related infections. The discovery of penicillin was one of the most significant medical breakthroughs ever. It saved millions lives and changed forever the course of medicine.
At first, Alexander Fleming didn't know that his finding would be so important. The other person didn't know the same. Nobody knew penicillin would be such a powerful anti-biotic.
Scientists discovered penicillin could be used to treat bacterial infections, but this was not until after World War II. In 1945, the U.S. Army asked Dr. Fleming if he could use penicillin to treat soldiers suffering from wounds infected with deadly germs. Dr. Fleming was willing to give it a try.
It turned out that penicillin was effective against many different kinds of infection. Penicillin was an invaluable lifesaver for wounded soldiers in World War II. It saved many lives, and it was used by doctors to save more.
Dr. Fleming did not expect that his discovery would have such a profound impact. He just wanted to ensure mold didn't grow on the bacteria cultures he used to study. But he couldn’t see how such an easy experiment would lead to such a simple medical breakthrough.
Many discoveries made every day aren't really remarkable. These discoveries are nothing more than experiments, done for no particular purpose.
If you look back at history, you will see that even seemingly insignificant experiments can make a huge difference.
The most important discoveries are those that seem to have absolutely nothing in common. Penicillin was discovered. Or photography. Or electricity. Or even computers.
Invention does not happen simply because someone thinks up a brilliant idea. Because someone has a problem. And then, they solve that problem through experimentation.
