It’s hard to believe what a man with no proper and functioning
body an do. It’s rather like a fantasy
or straight out of a fiction if you'd ask me. But it is not fiction but real
life, Stephen Hawking is one of the famous personality who has done so many
unbelievable things. He conquered the obstacles in his life to do what he wants
to do....the study of black holes and astrophysics. If you need to be inspired
and amazed this is the book for you!
Everyone including Stephen has a special childhood or past
memory that helped you build your future...
Stephen did well in some subjects and focused on some of his
favorite subjects-Math' Physics and Chemistry. He loved and physics as a child
and why you ask well... that’s because
he loved physics because of the theories. And he was interested in how things
worked. His nickname was 'Einstein', despite his poor grades his teachers and
his peers seemed to understand that they had a future genius amongst them.
Soon after it was time for college and he faced a problem.
Stephen wanted to do physics but his dad was compelling him to do biology and
medicine. When everything was sorted out and Stephen was to do physics another
problem arose, his parents did not have enough money to send him to Oxford
without a scholarship, so Stephen ended up taking an exam and soon after acing
it he packed up and left for college.
1963 is turning point in Stephen’s life....he met his future
wife Jane Wilde.
They started tests which diagnosed Stephen with ALS(Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis )ALS- Most patients with ALS—also known as Lou Gehrig's disease, for the famous baseball player who succumbed to the
disease—are diagnosed after the age of 50 and die within five years of their
diagnosis. Hawking's condition was first diagnosed when he was 21, and he was
not expected to see his 25th birthday.
Stephen loved to dance but because of his problems he was forced
to stop.
Stephen’s
past did build his present…..
Stephen now lives in the UK with his family happily inspiring
people to become curious and intelligent and what is intelligence -
“Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change.”
Stephen also continues to succeed with his research on black
holes with the help of his most well developed technology wheelchair which
enables him to speak and perform many other things he could not have done but most importantly move as Stephen can move
only a few fingers on one hand!
Hawking is well known for his famous books- The Brief History of Time,
The
Universe in a Nutshell, George’s Cosmic Treasure Hunt and
The Theory Of Everything are just a few examples.
Stephen travels around giving motivational speeches to help
bring curiosity into the younger generation, he says in one of his speeches-
In one of his speeches he voices-“The wonderful thing about the
future is that it’s not written on stone. We create our lives instant by
instant, based on our thoughts, feelings and action. Our only chance of long
term survival is not remain lurking on planet Earth, but to spread out into
space.”
According to Hawking sending humans to space and other planets
will shape the future of the human race in many ways we don’t yet understand,
and it also may determine if we do or not have a future at all.”
Hawking also expects complexity to increase at a rapid rate,
both in biological and electronic spheres.
Now that you and I know all about the great and majestic Stephen
Hawking both of us can tell that he inspires people. And Hawking does not sit
around and complain and cry about his problems instead he goes forth to conquer
them and to do what he wishes to do-“People won’t have time for you if you are
always angry or complaining…..”
