Deep Thoughts…

I was quite amused to find that this was in my e-mail this morning for the “inspiration” e-mail I get every day. Seems to be just what I needed. Funny when that happens, isn’t it?
Thinking for yourself in the face of doubt
“One man’s creativity is another’s brain damage.” – Roland Fischer
If you accept someone else’s idea of reality and personal limits, you’ll have no control over your own destiny. You can only go as far as that view will let you. Do you normally accept things as they are, or do you ask “why” and “what if”? Being an individual and thinking for yourself—even while others are calling you crazy—takes courage. For many, trying a new perspective is scary. But if we always stick to the familiar, the known, we never grow and learn. Don’t be afraid to go against the grain. Ask the tough questions that everyone else is afraid to ask. Try a new way to do the same thing just to see what happens. We guarantee you that the world won’t end. You’ll see solutions that nobody else would see if they’re all looking at a problem the same way. Practice new ways to combine unrelated objects. After all, somebody had to try peanut butter and jelly for the first time.
