This quote, often attributed to Albert Einstein, highlights the futility of engaging in the same behavior while anticipating a change in outcome. It suggests that without adapting strategies or approaches, one is unlikely to achieve new results. In essence, it serves as a reminder to reflect on past actions and be open to innovation and change for progress.

What does it mean to do the same thing repeately but expecting a different outcome?

Some say, the definition of insanity is doing the same thing but expecting a different result. When you use the same thought process, same approach, maybe same system over and over again and still getting the same result, it's time to change the above mentioned. Kind of like if you were to get in your car....and make car noises but the car doesn't start. You really want the car to start, and day after day you go and sit in your car and make car noises. Stop and think, how else will this car start. Hmmmm. Maybe use the key, then the car will start. Another saying, there isn't one way to skin a cat....ouch...I know sounds terrible but basically the same idea. There are several methods you just have to keeping trying until you get your result you want. IF? You have tried everything including what everyone else even suggests then maybe it's time to find a new goal or different outcome. Be flexible because life isn't!

I feel that John McCain is in a good position to run for President in 2012. By that time he will have plenty of rest since he lost the 2008 election. Can I ask him too?

John McCain will be almost 80 years old by then. Besides, he already lost against Obama. To do the same thing over and over again expecting a different result is the definition of insanity. McCain is the reason we have Obama right now. In 2012 you will be able to vote for a true small government Republican who can beat Obama. http://www.garyjohnson2012.com
