What makes Stephen Hawking from lazy students a great brain of humanity?

Stephen Hawking was born on January 8, 1942, coinciding with the 300th anniversary of the death of the physicist, astronomer, and mathematician Galile.

Stephen Hawking, the eminent mind of the century, who inspires modern astronomy and the energy to inspire millions of people worldwide, has died at the age of 76.

He was born on January 8, 1942, coinciding with the 300th anniversary of the death of the physicist, astronomer, and mathematician Galile. His father, Frank Hawking, served as head of the parasitology department at the National Institute of Medical Research.

Like many other fathers, Frank directed Stephen to follow the path of biomedical. However, as a child, Stephen Hawking showed an intense passion for science and the universe.

But in the early days of school, Stephen did not excel. He could not even read or write fluently.

"My sister, Philippa, can read at 4 years old and I can read it smoothly until I'm 8 years old. The text in my notebook is messy, my assignments are always frustrating for teachers. I have never ranked in the upper half of the class, but the classmates often call me "Einstein" , " Stephen said.

Stephen Hawking also admitted that he used to be a lazy student.

Stephen Hawking also acknowledged that he was a lazy student, his time at Oxford never spent an hour a day studying."I am not proud of that time. At that time I felt depressed and did not see anything worth trying," he said.

Stephen Hawking's life turned into a completely different direction at age 21 when he was diagnosed with muscular atrophic sclerosis (ALS) . This disease causes the patient's body to harden until it is completely paralyzed. They lose their ability to exercise, cannot chew food and have difficulty breathing. Doctors predict that Stephen Hawking will not survive more than two years.

The malignant disease caused Stephen Hawking to be paralyzed all over his body, only one finger could move, but he could not numb his brain. It was his relationship with Jane Wilde, his sister's girlfriend and later his wife, that helped Stephen Hawking gain the energy to live."When faced with the possibility of premature death, I realized that this life is worth living and there are many things I want to do , " Hawking said.

Hawking did not collapse due to illness but even found his purpose of life."You need to be mature enough to realize that life is not fair. Do what is best in your condition. Therefore, I have started working for the first time in my life. Surprisingly, I realize that I like to work ".

When he returned to the study of the disease suddenly progressed more slowly than expected by the doctor. Hawking's initial diagnosis of life was removed.

Hawking said that the research gave him more time to live, something that others could not do."I have a job and get special care. It plays a very important role. Working in theoretical physics is a blessing for me, because this is one of the few areas where the destruction disability is not an important weakness , " Stephen Hawking shared with the New York Times in 2011.

And now after many years of dedication to science while fighting the disease, genius Stephen Hawking died at the age of 76. Farewell to Stephen Hawking, the achievements he achieved will last forever with the universe, His life force will be an example for everyone in us to follow.
