All know in the world and the commotion, the World Physicist, Stepen Hawking died at the age of 76 tathun on Wednesday (03/14/2018).
And Exactly 76 years ago, the husband and wife Frank and Isobel Hawking had the first son. And Born January 8, 1942, exactly 300 years after Galileo's death, the son named Stephen Hawking later became the most influential physicist in the 20th century. And also Not only the concept of black holes, gravitational waves, and big bang that made Hawking influential, but also his life as a sufferer of Amyropic Lateral Schlerosis (ALS), an atheist, and his enthusiasm in science communication.
Hawking and his life provide valuable lessons for us.
And this is among others
Do not give up
We know that as a sufferer of ALS, Hawking is phenomenal. When diagnosed with ALS at the age of 21, Hawking was sentenced to only last two years. But it turns out that Hawking is not only able to live up to now but also produces many works that have a big impact.
Open and Stay Grounded
Hawking is indeed an atheist, and besides saying that the universe does not need a creator, Hawking also said, "I think conventional life after death is a fairy tale for people who fear darkness.
Share the Knowledge You Have
Hawking is not only a smart scientist who gives birth to big and good ideas, but also scientists who are good at sharing knowledge and motivating young people. Popular scientific books such as "A Brief History of Time" and "The Universe in a Nutshell" are a number of examples.
In "My Brief History", Hawking said, then he wanted to invite people to understand the development of understanding of the universe. He also said he did not want to just write a good book.
Hopefully this post will always be useful and be a motivation for a better life and always directed
"If I spend time and effort writing books, I want to reach as many people as possible," he said. The process of writing a book is not easy. And Hawking had to revise many times according to the editor's proposal, Peter Guzzardi.
