Albert Einstein ~A Portrait of Intellectual Brilliance
One of the World’s Greatest Thinkers ~
Without a doubt, one of the finest and most well-known figures of the last 100 years is Albert Einstein. His achievements and discoveries have fundamentally changed our understanding of reality while also challenging the way we think. The majority of us are familiar with Einstein thanks to books and TV documentaries. Sometimes it seems like he's a crazy professor, but that couldn't be further from the truth. In addition to being a brilliant scientist, Einstein was a successful, inspirational man who gave us important life lessons about what it takes to leave your mark on the world. According to the theory itself, energy and mass are the same thing yet exist in different forms. The fact that Einstein was able to draw such a relationship indicates how thoroughly he understood many points of view. The fact that he was a very skilled violinist and acknowledged that "I live my daydreams in music" may surprise most people. By concentrating on the part music played in Einstein's life, we can gain some insight into his thinking. His amazing visualization of abstract scientific concepts can be attributed to his musical talent. He frequently described how intuition and mental imagery would give rise to his scientific ideas, which he would then translate into a logical language that made sense to other people.
A particularly unusual kind of brain is needed to discover a notion such as the theory of relativity ~

His Other Quirky Habits ~
Although it was not a diagnosis at the time, Albert Einstein was believed to be on the autism spectrum. Certain behaviors of his - like disliking touch, having difficulty in social situations, and having trouble in school - were in line with what was later defined as autism.
Just because he was a genius in physics and math doesn't mean he was good at everything. Einstein played the violin but had a very hard time counting rhythms.
Einstein always planned to be cremated, but after he died, a pathologist named Thomas Harvey stole his brain. Harvey thought Einstein's brain could hold the key to his genius, but he didn't make any significant discoveries before Einstein's family found out about the theft.
There were, in fact, unique features to Einstein's brain that may be the answer to how he was so smart. Some parts of the brain were thicker than average, which could mean he had a stronger connection between the two hemispheres.
In 1947, he co-authored a top-secret paper on what to do if humans contact aliens with J. Robert Oppenheimer, the father of the atomic bomb. Some people think this was Einstein's way of telling the world he knew something about aliens we didn't. Others whisper an off-the-wall theory that Einstein was smart because of aliens.
Einstein wasn't the first one to discover the principles of his Theory of Relativity, but he was the first to treat it as a physical law. Ten years before Einstein published his theory, a Dutch physicist named Hendrik Lorentz tested the ideas but didn't think they applied to real life.
People did not take Einstein's Theory of Relativity seriously when he first published it.
He was exhausted when that iconic tongue picture was taken. It was taken on Einstein's 72nd birthday, and after fake-smiling for paparazzi all night, he playfully stuck out his tongue at a photographer instead.
Einstein was nothing if not ahead of the curve. Before age 30, he had already published his famous theories of special and general relativity.
Einstein had innate mental gifts, but he didn't think that's what made him so successful. Instead, he claimed that his persistence was what set him apart from everyone else in his field.
What Can You Learn From His Qurky Habits ~
DAILY WALKS ~
Einstein treasured his daily stroll. He would walk the mile and a half to and from Princeton University, New Jersey, where he worked. He continued the tradition of previous conscientious walkers, such as Darwin, who took three daily walks of forty-five minutes each. These walks were not simply for physical health; a plethora of research suggests that walking improves cognition, creativity, and problem-solving skills. It's even better to stroll outside, at least for imagination. However, why? Walking forces the brain to concentrate on putting one foot in front of the other and staying upright, diverting it from more cerebral tasks. Here we have "transient hypofrontality," which, to put it simply in plain English, is a mouthful that essentially implies momentarily reducing the activity in specific brain regions. especially the frontal lobes, which are engaged in higher-order cognitive functions including language, memory, and judgment. Reducing the intensity can cause the brain to think in a whole different way, which could result in ideas that you wouldn't get at your desk. Although this theory of health advantages of walking isn't supported by any evidence yet, it's an intriguing one.
EATING SPAGHETTI ( Brain Enjoys Certain Food Craving~ but be careful on the limit! )
What then do brainiacs eat? Unfortunately, it's unclear what fueled Einstein's remarkable intellect—though some questionable reports on the internet suggest it was spaghetti. We'll go with his joke from earlier that his favorite things about Italy were "spaghetti and [mathematician] Levi-Civita." Although the brain only makes up 2% of the body's weight, it is generally known to be a voracious organ that consumes 20% of its energy.
10 HOURS OF SLEEP AND ONE SECOND NAPS ~
It’s common knowledge that sleep is good for your brain – and Einstein took this advice more seriously than most. He reportedly slept for at least 10 hours per day – nearly one and a half times as much as the average American today (6.8 hours). But can you slumber your way to a sharper mind? The author John Steinbeck once said: “It is a common experience that a problem difficult at night is resolved in the morning after the committee of sleep has worked on it.” Many of the most radical breakthroughs in human history, including the periodic table, the structure of DNA, and Einstein’s theory of special relativity, have supposedly occurred while their discoverer was unconscious. .
"The one who follows the crowd will usually go no further than the crowd. The one who walks alone is likely to find themselves in places no one has ever been before." ~ Albert Einstein
