Geniuses are Remarkable
There is an aspect of
these geniuses which is rarely discussed. It is certain they all have marvelous
minds, capable of a depth of thought unknown to us all. They have remarkable
memories and a profound intuition and knowledge of what they do. There is more,
beyond knowing all the literature, all the techniques, and all the skills.
It is concentration.
In fact, Isaac Newton
said, "I keep the subject constantly before me and wait till the first
drawstrings open slowly, little and little, into a full and clear light."
What all these
geniuses could do is exactly that. They could focus their brains upon a problem
for weeks, months, even years until it was resolved. This requires phenomenal
energy which few have. But this concentration takes the mind into unknown
realms and depths, and it changes them forever. When they emerge, they are
different. And it can take time to catch up with themselves. Some never do.
Others, fewer in number, can plow through life
at this level, churning new and fantastical output for decades.
