Rethinking.
They say that you’re an over thinker- that you pick and choose every word you say, that you never know how to make decisions, that you’re continuously wrought with anxiety. As cruel as their words may seem, it’s so easy to believe them. And now, only their words matter. No amount of comfort from friends and family can change what they have said.
Why? Why are we so willing to accept such averse comments but entirely reluctant to believe the brighter truths? Just, rethink. Considering multiple outcomes of a situation isn’t a flaw. In fact, it should be encouraged, praised even. And it all comes down to being mindful.
They don’t realize that you are the embodiment of the future, the expression of new thinking. You envision the solutions to the problems we face today and redefine what’s already known. It’s about time to make them rethink.
Rethink the future.
1. The Classroom:
There’s a universal agreement on the importance of education: it’s vital. But now, more than ever, we’re realizing that the traditional classroom environment needs improvement, and fast. Our biggest change in classrooms since the beginning of the schooling system is the addition of all sorts of tech. But the general teaching style hasn’t seen a single change. As much as lectures are an effective method of teaching, there’s great demand to make school more engaging. That way, at younger ages we can eliminate the bland association to the classroom helping more kids stay in school. What’s pushing us back is our limited capacity in renovating current school environments into more open, modern spaces. It’s time, to rethink and react on schooling matters.
2. The Home:
Fairly recently, the concept of home automation has seen a drastic spike in development. Everything from your sprinklers to your counters and doors to your walls have been automated and transformed your basic home into a digitalized setting. Concerns about home security and a likely rise in couch potato lifestyles should be carefully evaluated. Nevertheless, there’s incredible potential in rethinking the home and the entire prospect is elevating to an unimaginable level.
3. Our Lives:
It’s pretty common to hear: “It’s time to rethink everything you know,” and honestly, that’s a very valid statement. We’ve barely smudged the surface on all there is to know. Much of what we know still has blanks that we have yet to fill or could even be untrue. Taking your studies further whichever field you choose will make you rethink just how much out there we are on the path to find answers for. On an introspective level, I take genuine surprise towards how insignificant human progress seems relative to the universe. Don’t get me wrong here, what we’ve accomplished as of today is insanely mind-blowing after how we first started off. But, humans have only been alive for less that one millionth of a fraction of time that the Earth has been around for. That’s not even considering the time the entire universe has been in existence. There’ll come a time in your career that will make you rethink about how far we have come and how far we will go.
Rethink all that you know.
In perspective, there’s a lot that we’re currently rethinking. And that’s the beauty of the entirety of human life. All in all, it’ll be all of you over thinkers out there who’ll create the definition for rethinking our world.
