Dinner With Albert



Have you ever been asked:

If you were to have dinner with anyone - dead or alive - who would it be?

I've given this question some thought on several occasions and it ultimately always comes down to Albert Einstein. I know what you're thinking. I chose him because of his dashing good looks. This is not the case. This man has contributed so much to the society we live in today. Aside from his contributions to Science and Mathematics, he was a brilliant philosopher. 




"Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid."

It's really easy to be influenced by those around you as to what you should be. At the end of the day it comes down to what you want to do and what you are good at.

Everyone has something to contribute to this world. It's your prerogative to find what that may be for you. Maybe you've found it already. Maybe you found it and you don't even realize it yet. Keep trying different things and make mistakes until it feels right. For every mistake you make you'll look back and realize why it happened. It's never too late to figure it out. Begin by making steps towards something you enjoy doing. It might not be handed to you, but challenging is not necessarily a bad thing because overcoming a challenge comes with gratitude and appreciation for the obtained goal. We all have a set of skills that are unique to us.
We can all be really great at something if we apply ourselves the right way. 

Einstein genuinely believed in the timeless concept of individuality & he was named TIME magazine's person of the century in 1999. Imagine the success you can reach by believing in the same thing.

Who would you have dinner with?
