Richard Feynman - Fixing Radios

Richard Feynman speaks about how, as 12 year old boy, he was asked by repairmen in a hotel to fix radios; prompting him to make a small business out of it. Using the same lab he had made as a 10 year old, he also was employing his sister Joan as an assistant at a salary of four cents a week. By 15, he'd taught himself trigonometry, advanced algebra, analytic geometry and calculus, and in his last year of high school won the New York University Math Championship, shocking the judges not only by his score, but by how much higher it was than those of his competitors. As with any person, childhood events and experience help shape people as they grow up and influences lifestyle choices. It is important to note that Richard Feynman was not given these opportunities to experiment, explore and grow by pure chance. In this case his aunt, who owned the hotel, had told people about her nephew's abilities and helped nurture them. Similarly his father and mother fueled his curiosity and helped him grow mentally. Richard's sister Joan also helped him develop, as she was equally curious herself thanks to an upbringing equally nurturing to her mind Richard's and allowed her to become an astrophysicist. Richard's first wife, second wife and children also had an impact on his unique outlook on the world and also helped him communicate his ideas, making him the legendary teacher and lecturer that millions of people, both scientists and laymen, appreciate today. The story of Richard Feynman is something we can all learn from, parents in particular, in that we should always nurture the positive aspects in our children, siblings, friends and life partners to help them grow.
