[00:00.29]Advise Proposed by Albert Einstein

[00:05.70]Every day I remind myself that my inner and outer life

[00:10.41]are based on the labors 1 of other men, living and dead,

[00:13.78]and that I must exert myself in order to give

[00:16.39]in the same measure as I have received

[00:18.72]and am still receiving.—Albert Einstein

[00:21.60]Albert Einstein was an amazing physicist 2.

[00:25.10]He figured out so many universal principles and equations

[00:29.27]that he was way ahead of his fellow scientists

[00:31.52]at any point of time.

[00:33.01]But he is also remembered for another thing,

[00:35.97]a quality which made people call him a genius:

[00:39.45]his words. Prof. Einstein was a philosopher

[00:42.73]who clearly understood the laws of success

[00:45.29]and explained them like the way he did with his equations.

[00:48.55]Here is a list of 10 things out of

[00:51.26]the numerously wonderful things he had said;

[00:53.54]10 golden lessons that you can put to use in your everyday life.

[00:57.75]1. A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new.

[01:02.87]Most people don't try new things because of their fear of failure.

[01:07.37]Failing is not something to be afraid of.

[01:09.98]It is often the losers

[01:11.65]who learn more about winning than the winners.

[01:14.16]Our mistakes always give us opportunities to learn and grow.

[01:18.45]2. Education is what remains 3 after one has forgotten

[01:22.93]what one has learned in school.

[01:24.36]30 years from now, you won't possibly remember

[01:27.48]what chapters you had in your science book;

[01:29.72]you'd only remember what you learn on your way.

[01:32.34]Life lessons stay with you forever.

[01:34.33]Real education starts from within.

[01:36.87]3. I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination.

[01:41.83]Imagination is more important than knowledge.

[01:44.88] Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.

[01:49.23]When you reflect on how far we humans have come from

[01:52.45]the prehistoric 4 caves to mind-blowing technological 5 advancements 6,

[01:56.26]you would feel the power of imagination.

[01:59.03]What we have now was built from the imagination of our forefathers 7.

[02:03.70]What we will have in future will be built from our imagination.

[02:07.97]4. The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources.

[02:14.08]Creativity and uniqueness often depends on

[02:16.97]how well you hide your sources.

[02:19.42] You can get inspired and influenced by other great people;

[02:22.80] but when you are on stage with the whole world watching,

[02:25.91] you must become a unique,

[02:27.75]individual force that learnt different values from different people.

[02:31.21]5. The value of a man should be seen in what he gives

[02:35.57]and not in what he is able to receive.

[02:38.70]Try not to become a man of success,

[02:41.21]but rather try to become a man of value.

[02:44.97]If you think of all the top people in the world,

[02:48.42]they would have added something of value to the world.

[02:51.12]You must give in order to take.

[02:53.22]When your purpose is contributing or adding value to the world,

[02:56.64]you will be elevated to a higher level of living.

[02:59.60]6. There are two ways to live:

[03:02.84]you can live as if nothing is a miracle;

[03:05.76]you can live as if everything is a miracle.

[03:08.81]When nothing is a miracle,

[03:11.12]you gain the power of doing anything you want

[03:13.92]and you have no limits. And when everything is a miracle,

[03:17.56]you stop by to appreciate even the smallest of

[03:20.61]beautiful things in the world.

[03:22.66]Thinking both ways will give you a productive and happy life.

[03:27.06]7. When I examine myself and my methods of thought,

[03:31.89]I come to the conclusion that the gift of fantasy

[03:34.96]has meant more to me than any talent for abstract, positive thinking.

[03:39.69]Dreaming about all the great things

[03:42.62]that you can achieve is the key to a life filled with positivity.

[03:46.24]Let your imagination run amuck 8 and create the world

[03:49.53]that you would wish to be in.

[03:51.08]8. In order to be an immaculate member of a flock of sheep,

[03:55.36]one must above all be a sheep oneself.

[03:57.94]If you want to become a very successful entrepreneur,

[04:01.40]you must start a business right away.

[04:03.59]Wishing to become one, but fearing the consequences will not help.

[04:08.17] The same applies to everything—in order to win a game,

[04:11.56] one must above all play the game.

[04:13.29]9. You have to learn the rules of the game.

[04:16.75]And then you have to play better than anyone else.

[04:19.71]Learn the rules of your game and start playing it best.

[04:22.90]Keep competing like your life depended on it.

[04:25.64]And after a while you will have no one else

[04:28.47]but you to compete against. At that point, better your best.

[04:32.34]10. The important thing is not to stop questioning.

[04:36.30] Curiosity has its own reason for existing.

[04:39.12]Intelligent people ask. Keep questioning yourself

[04:43.13]and others to find solutions.

[04:44.83]This will help gain knowledge and analyze 9 your growth

[04:48.02]in all walks of life.
