Preparing for 2050

1664 vs 2019

When in 1664, Sir Isaac Newton started making contributions to the field of math, there were only a handful of people who understood what he was saying. A few years later he invented Calculus and it has since become a way of life. What was once discussed among some of the most brilliant people on the planet is now taught in every corner of the world. You and I both have had the pleasure of dealing with Newton's discoveries to some extent - Binomial Theorem, Calculus, Law of Gravity and Laws of Motion are some of the most commonly taught ideas in today's high-schools.

I took some of his teachings to heart and decided I wanted to pursue Experimental Physics after high-school. To my surprise, I was accepted into all my physics programs... but at the last second, I decided it wasn't for me despite how much I liked physics. The key word being "liked" not "loved". Instead I decided to take on the path of technology and business.
