During a study at Harvard in 1957, Dr. Curt Richter placed rats in a pool of water to test how long they could tread water.
On average they'd give up, sink and drown after 15 minutes.
But right before they gave up due to exhaustion,
the researchers would pluck them out,
dry them off,
let them rest for a few minutes and put them back in for a second round.
In this second try, how long do you think they lasted?
Remember, they had just swam until failure only a few short minutes ago...
How long do you think?
Another 15 minutes?
10 minutes?
5 minutes?
NO!
60 HOURS!
That's not an error.
That's right!
60 HOURS of swimming which is 2.5 DAYS!
The conclusion drawn was that since the rats BELIEVED that they would eventually be
rescued,
they could push their bodies way past what they previously thought impossible.
I will leave you with this thought:
If an Unstoppable Belief can cause exhausted rats to swim for that long,
what could a Belief in yourself and your Capabilities Do for You?
Remember What you’re capable of.
Remember Why you’re here.
Keep swimming and
Never Ever Quit!

Happy Birthday Albert Einstein. Born on Pi-day, 1879, Germany.
Shown teaching physics at Lincoln University, PA (an HBCU) in 1946.
"The separation of the races is not a disease of colored people. It is a disease of white people. I do not intend to be quiet about it."
Stop being a person who looks for the attention, the praise, and the applause.
You have to know that you put the work in, not just on your body, but most importantly, on your mind.
In their new work, the scientists aimed to link quantum mechanics with Einstein's special theory of relativity for a unified theory of quantum gravity. https://t.co/VfTdRwjzUF
BREAKING NEWS: This is an announcement that has been decades in the making.
On December 5, 2022 a team from DOE's @Livermore_Lab made history by achieving fusion ignition.
This breakthrough will change the future of clean power and America’s national defense forever.
This week in 1915: Albert Einstein completes the general theory of relativity, giving us one of the most beautiful equations ever conceived (LHS describes the curvature of spacetime, RHS describes the matter and energy in spacetime).
