"The first principle is that you must not fool yourself—and you are the easiest person to fool."Feynman stresses the importance of being honest with ourselves. It's easy to be blinded by our own biases, so we must constantly challenge our beliefs and actions to avoid self-deception.

"You have to have absolute confidence. Keep right on going, and nothing will happen."Feynman believed that confidence is key. Even when facing challenges, believing in yourself helps you push through difficulties.

5. Be confident in yourself

“I learned very early the difference between knowing the name of something and knowing something.”Feynman believed that we shouldn’t settle for surface-level understanding. Instead, we should dig deeper and truly understand how things work.

7. Question everything

"I have no responsibility to live up to what others expect of me. That’s their mistake, not my failing."Feynman reminds us that we are not obligated to meet other people’s standards. We should live life according to our own desires, not other people's opinions.

2. It’s not your responsibility to live up to others expectation

Imagination is more important than knowledge.

"I was born not knowing and have had only a little time to change that here and there."Feynman’s endless curiosity is what made him special. He believed that curiosity leads to learning, and learning leads to a more fun, interesting, and successful life.

1. Get curious about the world

I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.

The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing.

“You only live one life, and you make all your mistakes, and learn what not to do, and that’s the end of you.”Life is short and full of ups and downs, but every mistake is a chance to learn. Feynman encourages us to keep exploring and learning until the very end.

3. Life is a cycle of learning and mistakes

“There is pleasure in finding things out.”For Feynman, learning was a source of joy. He believed that the process of discovering new things should be fun, not something we dread.

6. Learning is fun, not a chore

Think, Question, Learn: Feynman’s Secrets to Success!

One of the most famous science books of our time, the phenomenal national bestseller that "buzzes with energy, anecdote and life. It almost makes you want to become a physicist" (Science Digest). Richard P. Feynman, winner of the Nobel Prize in physics, thrived on outrageous adventures. In this lively work that “can shatter the stereotype of the stuffy scientist” (Detroit Free Press), Feynman recounts his experiences trading ideas on atomic physics with Einstein and cracking the uncrackable safes guarding the most deeply held nuclear secrets—and much more of an eyebrow-raising nature. In his stories, Feynman’s life shines through in all its eccentric glory—a combustible mixture of high intelligence, unlimited curiosity, and raging chutzpah. Included for this edition is a new introduction by Bill Gates.
