10 Invaluable Lessons From Albert Einstein

"Education is not the learning of facts, but the training of the mind to think"

Albert Einstein's sayings have always made some of the finest quotes. The man was a genius, and he didn't just know science, he also knew a lot about life. Among the following quotes of Einstein, I particularly love the third one, it shows that the man had a romantic side too!

1. Follow Your Curiosity

“I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.”

2. Perseverance is Priceless 

“It’s not that I’m so smart; it’s just that I stay with problems longer.”

3. Focus on the Present 

“Any man who can drive safely while kissing a pretty girl is simply not giving the kiss the attention it deserves.”

4. The Imagination is Powerful

“Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life’s coming attractions. Imagination is more important than knowledge.”

5. Make Mistakes 

“A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new.”

6. Live in the Moment

“I never think of the future – it comes soon enough.”

7. Create Value

“Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value.”

8. Don’t be repetitive

“Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.”

9. Knowledge Comes From Experience

“Information is not knowledge. The only source of knowledge is experience.”

10. Learn the Rules and Then Play Better

“You have to learn the rules of the game. And then you have to play better than anyone else.”

And on a final note, 

“Never give up on what you really want to do. The person with big dreams is more powerful than one with all the facts.” -Albert Einstein
