I've heard it said that Einstein was always most interested in discovering the theory of everything, one theory that tied all the different sciences together. This is intriguing in theology because I've always thought that something that is a belief should be backed by another belief. Just keep following the belief trail about different assumptions and it may lead you to a rather shaking foundation etc.
Business tends to run this way as well, you see giant companies acting foolish and receiving a fools reward vs. other companies that seemed to have figured out their business theory of everything, basing all of their products off of it. Southwest - no frills, cheap air travel. Starbucks - high end, coffee related daily rewards. Nike - be you but better.
It's all around, one day is the world spinning once on its axis, one year is the world spinning around the sun as an axis. An eight pound baby is born and yet contains all of the essential organs and body functions that a two hundred pound forty year old adult does.
This is why truly smart people are interested by everything, because everything is one thing and one thing represents everything. Einstein new this about music, Richard Branson knows this about each and every person, he has filled up seven hundred pocket notebooks with other peoples thoughts from everyday conversations he has had throughout his life. Robert Gelinas knows this about jazz and Christianity.
When you figure something out, relate it immediately to everything else in your life and see if you are not enlightened by yourself. And if you are having trouble with something, retreat to an area of expertise and search for the answers there.
