Definition of Genius - As You Never Heard It Before (2) - Einstein

in #science6 years ago (edited)

Las time I talk about Jesus which was somehow a bit over the top so now I am stepping down to a human level...

Let's take a classic...

Einstein

Working alone for long afternoons in an archive room of some library with a beautiful window view...
that summon up what Einstein was for me

He used to finish archiving early in that big room and spent the rest of his time in his corner desk and physics notes looking outside the window where it was always quite and peaceful...
For me that is where Einstein mastered to think for a prolonged period of time...

It is in those long hours that Einstein had the time of his life as he wrote one of his most important paper that opened the door for him into the physics arena

That experience made him the great thinker that we all know today

Einstein was able to solve complicated mathematical problems using only his "imagination" and the real struggle was to actually materialize them on paper

Einstein as we all know was never the classic "good" student and preferred doing other stuffs than sitting in class for hours...
He refused to be influenced by boring routines and seemed to follow his own timing when it came to learning as he used to pick up books at awkward hours of the day but once he started reading he wouldn't stop unless he realized it was morning and he has been up all night

...in a way he was a continuous thinker

That was Einstein a self governed person that responded to his needs and passion whenever and wherever he felt that call


When he got older he used to retreat for hours just like when he was a student, away from undesired distractions...
Whoever had to deal with him in the house knew that about him and did the utmost to keep the house quite just like a monastery

He loved his solitude and protected it at all times and just like a monk all he had was his devotion to his work and that continuous desire to understand the cosmos

...continuous understanding...

...those were the words that continuously drove Einstein's life in a pursue to always try to understand more...

That all he cared about...understanding more

He knew before anyone else that light does not travel in a straight line which was an extraordinarily thing to "think"...

What Einstein was capable of is "connecting" mathematics with imagination

By translating the numbers on papers into practical examples in real life he actually connected the

"known" with the "unknown",

the "theory" with "reality",

..."man" with the "cosmos"

When asked how he did it he simply replied: "just think!

In the end I say that if the cosmos is continuous... then should your thinking

And that is how far we can get closer to a genius because there can only be 1 ultimate genius in our stay on this earth and that is Jesus C. as I explained previously in part 1...

...but that doesn't mean we can aspire for some sort of geniality in fact it is always good to aspire to the All Mighty

God continues blessing you
and thanks for reading...
