ALBERT EINSTEIN

     I believe when the definition of hard work is looked up in a dictionary the only thing that will be there is the picture of Einstein. The reason I say this is because he portrays hard work to the fullest. He developed, in 1905, the Special Theory of Relativity (which proved that the motion of an object is relative to the observer's position); what he did to the scientific community in the 20th century was superfluous. He invented a whole new way to look at the world.  And again, in 1915, through soul-slaying hard work and perseverance, he developed the General Theory of Relativity (which proved that space and time are one, referred to as space-time) - he shocked the world once again. His groundbreaking equations also helped paved the way for nuclear technology in WWII.

  What he developed not only changed how we view our world but also how we view our entire universe. What he invented in his life time was only the result of hard work. He didn’t just happen to fall onto his discoveries, he developed them with time and with extremely hard work. Our society now is reaping the benefits of his back-bending work; with calculation instruments in space and the projections of how objects move relative to the observer. His work is sowed into today’s society that even cell phone service has to be handed to his hard work. That is why I believe he is the definition of hard work. A person doesn’t have to make such a drastic change to our world to be classified as hard working, but people need to emulate this definition so they too can reap the benefits of what they sow.
