One of Albert Einstein's well-known quotes, “We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them,” serves as a reminder of how our thought patterns can lead to stagnation. Master Coach Marilou Butcher Roth reflects on this idea, suggesting that familiar ways of thinking can hinder problem-solving.
Problems arise at different stages in life, and often people revert to past solutions. This habitual approach may make it difficult to find new resolutions. Roth encourages individuals to challenge recurring thoughts by asking questions such as: "Is this thought absolutely true?" or "What can I learn from this experience?"
Roth also proposes using distraction as a technique to break negative thought cycles. Whether through watching a movie or engaging in household chores, redirecting focus can be beneficial.
Marilou Butcher Roth owns The MBR Group, a coaching company focused on helping REALTORS achieve more inspired living and working conditions. She is also the Broker/Owner of Group REALTORS in Cincinnati and serves on the Ohio REALTORS Board of Directors.
