One eminent person a day.

Learning about eminent people who have walked the earth provides me with a unique sense of insight. What I learn from them is so invaluable that nothing else on earth can replace.

I believe the mind is a machine to think and the body is a machine to hold the mind while it lives. The mind:You put thoughts in it and it processes to give ideas. This is why learning something that you dont understand is completely useless=because you cant use it. The question is.. what do you put into it?

If you learn mathematics, science, engineering, language etc etc, if you think like me, you will soon realise that we are all wasting our time if those things we learn we cant use it.

Mathematics, like engineering are just tools. The art of using them only comes from inspiration and imagination. By learning how those great people thought, we can learn amazing ways that inspire us to think instead of just knowing.

When I was 15 years I read .. I have forgotten who said that..but when he felt empty, he simply went into his library and took a book about eminent people. He quickly found great inspiration to work. I always yearned for such a book when I was younger but found none. Even if I found any I highly doubt if I would have had the means to buy it.

I have also put the life time of the people to show that everyone will die... that anything we can ever achieve is just within this time span after this we die. When we know this we quickly understand why we cannot waste time...
