No matter how many times you bang your head
against the wall, it is still going to hurt the next time you do it. #QuoteADay #Day263 #edchat
It’s frustrating when people keep doing things over and over
again, despite the fact that they aren’t getting different results. What’s even worse is when we know deep down
that what we’re doing isn’t effective, yet we keep doing so anyway.
Change is never easy.
In fact, sometimes, it is incredibly challenging. But, if all the data points to what we’re
doing as not working, then we have to change.
Doing the same thing over and over again in hopes that the
next time it will work is an exercise in futility, a losing battle with
learning, and a lack of leadership.
And yet, we’ve all done this before.
The best way to avoid falling into this trap is to set clear
and simple goals to dig ourselves out of the rut we’re currently in. Oftentimes, we keep doing the same “broken”
think over and over again because the leap to what might work is too
great. By setting small goals and taking
tiny steps, we can begin a longer trek towards making things work, and just as
importantly, changing our mindset to showcase the importance of change and the
damage of the status quo.
