Dear diary,
Today I want introduce you one of the famous scientist Stephen William Hawking was an english theoretical physicist, cosmologist and author, who was director of the research at the centre for theoretical cosmology at the university at the Cambridge at the time of his death . He was the Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at the University of Cambridge between 1979 and 2009.
His scientific work included collaboration with Roger Penrose on gravitational singularity theorems in the framework of general relativity and the theoretical prediction that black hole emits radiation.
Hawking achieved commercial success with several works of popular science in who h he discusses his own theories and cosmology in general.
I learnt several things from Hawking those are:
1.Stay curious:
“I am just a child who has never grown up. I still keep asking these ‘how’ and ‘why’ questions. Occasionally, I find an answer.”
Professor Hawking never stopped looking for problems to solve. No matter how much was going on in his life, and he overcame tremendous health challenges, he never ever quit being curious.
2.Communication is a powerful tool:
“For millions of years, mankind lived just like the animals. Then something happened which unleashed the power of our imagination. We learned to talk and we learned to listen. Speech has allowed the communication of ideas, enabling human beings to work together to build the impossible. Mankind’s greatest achievements have come about by talking, and its greatest failures by not talking. It doesn’t have to be like this. Our greatest hopes could become reality in the future. With the technology at our disposal, the possibilities are unbounded. All we need to do is make sure we keep talking.”
3.Communication skills are an enabler of bringing ideas to life. But Hawkings reminds us that as much as it is important to talk, it is equally important to listen to other people and their ideas.
4. Laughter is the best medicine:
“Life would be tragic if it weren’t funny.”
Professor Hawking was a bit of a philosopher on life. This quote reminds me of Friedrich Nietzsche’s famous book ‘The Birth of Tragedy’ where early on he states that “most humor has its basis in trauma”.
Hawking reminds us to never take ourselves too seriously and that we shouldn’t lose our sense of humor while pursuing success.
5.Be courageous:
“If I had to choose a superhero to be, I would pick Superman. He’s everything that I’m not.”
Call it what you want: guts, grit, gumption — Professor Hawking had it all in spades. It’s hard enough to earn a PhD at any university, but to do it while coping with debilitating motor neuron disease AND tackling a controversial doctorial topic took courage. Something he never let go of in his professional and personal life. He is the textbook example for students (in the classroom and life!) in never giving up.
