Today’s Principle to Follow:
Principle #40: Spread Knowledge, the Importance of it, and a Love for it.
   When you learn something that changes your life for the better, or that blows you away with how much it expands your understanding, share it. Many people in today’s society don’t read, and aren’t curious about very much outside the things that immediately impact them. If you can get something else interested in learning or knowledge, you’ve made a big difference in this world.
   
   Anytime you find someone who wants to learn something you know, offer to teach them. It helps them, of course, but we also learn a great deal by teaching others. We make better connections and we stretch ourselves by answering the tough questions that curious minds ask. You should tell people, especially young people, how important it is to always be learning. Tell them how knowledge and learning impacted your life. One way to share your love of knowledge is to share or give away a book that had a big impact on you.

Today’s Principle to Follow:
Principle #39: When You Give Up On A Problem And Quit Looking For Solutions Is Often When You Will Find The Answer.
   Sometimes geniuses become so focused on a problem that they will not rest until they find the solutions. They may stay up nights, seclude themselves, and fixate on an issue, cycling it in their minds over and over. Some geniuses are so persistent that they do not know when to give it a rest. They will continue above and beyond what any normal person will tolerate. Many times, they take their field personally. They believe solving a specific problem is important beyond just for their own reasons, and this motivates them to continue despite a lack of progress. What tends to surprise many great minds is that at the moment they completely give up on a problem and their minds relaxes, they often see he answers in a flash.
   
   Chess players often talk about how right after they make their move, they immediately see a better move that they should have made. This is because they stopped looking for solutions, and all of a sudden the right way popped into the mind when they relaxes their thoughts. As strange as it sounds, sometimes relaxing your mind and your thoughts is the best thing you can do to find your solution.

Today’s Principle to Follow:
Principle #38: Persist Through the Desire to Give Up On Your Ambitions.
   Geniuses make the choice to persist through obstacles, taking themselves further and further into the unknown. They take themselves gleefully into places where they are not even sure how they will ever get out safely. They may work on a problem that they feel is completely beyond them, and dedicate years or decades of their lives to it. Einstein spent a great deal of time contemplating issues of the universe, for example. He took the Risk of investing so much of his time with the possibility that in the end he would have nothing to show for it. He pushed through any pain or dear, and continued.
   
   Many great geniuses reach a point where they feel alone and that it would be better just to give up. The realist is that the greatest problems are not easy to solve. They take great persistence. The great geniuses ultimately realize this, and so they don’t give up. They push themselves completely, and they take their minds beyond where most of ours will ever go. To take your mind to the greatest enlightenment and reach the greatest revelations, it take real mental effort over time.
   
   You can practice this skill by starting small. When you find a stubborn homework problem, or you have a problem fixing a broken system of any kind, don’t stop at the first obstacle. Persist until you figure it out. Learn to persist through pain, boredom, fear, and strain, to keep going and going. Press on until you reach a solution. Then take that mental training and touch skin with you to whatever great problem you set your mind to.

Today’s Principle to Follow:
Principle #37: Pay Attention to Overall Patterns, and the Anomalies That Do Not Fit.
   Life largely consists of patterns and anomalies. The patterns are the general structures, the things you expect to see because you’ve seen them happen so many times before. In fact, our brains often naturally pick up general patterns and tendencies. Once you know what to expect quite well, you will be prepared to notice anomalies. The things or events that don’t fit with the context. Often, by realizing that there is an anomaly present, we can further investigate it. Darwin realized on his voyage studying other life forms that there were many minor variations among different species of birds. This was inconsistent with his prior worldview that we were all fixed species that never changed form. He took that anomaly and investigated it further, founding the theory of evolution.
   
   Geniuses learn the patterns, the tendencies of a system, and if they come across an anomaly they do not discard it. They focus on it until they understand why it happened. Often times it is the unexpected anomaly that leads to a great breakthrough of a discovery.
