Hey sci/

Basically, I'm destined to be the next Einstein. It stresses me everyday. Like everytime I try to sleep it's their.

I'm second year Maths student at Manchester university. Going to get a first easy. Try to get a PhD in say Oxford and Cambridge when I'm in the fourth year, I hope.

However, I need to study 20 hours a day. But, that means no friends or anything else.

I've decided to give up computer, so can't access it at uni. That means, no porn, no music and no talking social network sites. I can then go to the library and study until that shuts.

But, yeah it's like I need to work out how the universe is. But, I'm an idiot. My Maths skills are weak, my Physics skills are based on Maths skills.

The point is I basically have to become like Sheldon out of big bang theory. The episode where he had a girl obsessing over him and basically did everything for him and shielded him from distraction.

Like I've decided to socialist little with friends, shut out all distractions.

The first thing I have to do is get rid of laptop. But, yeah.

Life sucks. If I'm normal I'm stressed as hell. It's a feeling that killing me. Something that says you are stupid, why aren't you studying. Note, I have OCD.

It's getting to the point that someone starts a thread about them being 'the next einstein' or something to that effect every fucking day now.

It's great that you're enthusiastic and all, but no. Just no. Studying 20 hours a day will not make you clever. If anything the lack of sleep will make your mind less efficient, but that's not even the point, the point is pull your head out your ass and realise you are not a unique snowflake and you are not 'destined' to unlock the secrets of the universe.

Aiming to be like Sheldon out of the big bang theory? Really?

And yeah, herp derp, in some ways I am similar to Einstein, therefore I must be a genius.

I sort of dumb it down for sci/

Basically, I'm not trying to become a Einstein. My first year lecturer said to not try and copy someone. Nor do I have a romantic idea.

However, I suppose writing something like by studying 20 hours a day for 15 years I want to prove the Riemann Hypothesis would get little attention.

About sleep thing. I don't sleep a lot. Mostly because of stress.

To be fair, I don't like Einstein that much. His views on Quantum Mechanics are wrong i.e. EPR. Grothendieck is much better. However, no one on here probably knows who he is.

How to get rid of stress, without suppressing emotions because I'm not using my full potential. Should really have put that instead of next Einstein thing.

OP, you sort of remind me of myself...

First of all, dont be insanely hard on yourself, it will lead to procrastination.

you can also teach yourself (http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/chemistry/).).

Also download a shit load of audio books on physics, then go to the gym and work out while you listen, its good to keep your body in shape. (I got halfway through "the social contract" by taking a 3hour bike ride).

Try not to avoid other people, social interaction will help relive stress and thus help you concentrate better.

And drop all your working on, focus only on finding a cure to aging, then you will no longer need to spend lots of time working on learning as you now no longer have a "deadline".

Op, your expectations are too high and your skills are too low to actually accomplish this unreasonable goal. You're going to stress yourself to the point health issues, and you will die alone if you isolate yourself just to chase after a fruitless task.

OP, if you had instead chosen neuroscience or genetics (two currently rapidly advancing fields) and put in half the effort that you do in maths, who knows you could have actually achieved something tangible. Maybe your name would have lived on through history. Instead you're destined for a mental breakdown. Pity.

Also, a high capacity for original thinking and an ability to see both the fine details AND the big picture are far more important for success than intelligence.
