When we think of Einstein we always get a picture of a true genius in our mind. At the same time, we use the name of Albert Einstein as synonymous with genius i.e., genius means Albert Einstein and Albert Einstein means genius.

Well, he is my favourite physicist. So I would love to talk about him. In this article, I’m going to tell you 3 keys to his genius, that made him one of the greatest scientists in human history.

1. Having Fun: Only having fun, period.

The one thing we can learn from Einstein is that he had fun thinking about space and time. Fun is fundamental to any great work. You have to enjoy your work and your craft. You have to get the pleasure of knowing and unfolding the secrets of the cosmos.

Breakthrough discoveries and inventions only happen when there is fun in doing it.

Now what if I ask you what is the one thing that makes you happy and that you always love to do or think about, even when you are not working?

Well, to Einstein it was science, mathematics, space and time. Einstein once said, "I have no special talents. I am only passionately curious." In short, curiosity is what drives discovery or inventions.
