410 Words1 Page

Introduction:
"We build too many walls and not enough bridges." (Isaac Newton). This quote describes that we face too many challenges but we do not overcome them enough. Isaac Newton did the opposite of that. Isaac Newton created a telescope, used persisting to innovate ways to overcome Robert Hooke, and illuminated the world by changing the way people understand the laws of and motion

Create:
Sir Isaac Newton was a physicist, mathematician, and a writer. He created many things. One thing he created as a telescope that he constructed for his first scientific achievement (Isaac newton biography, 2015). He discovered the laws of gravity and motion. He wrote a book called The Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica. It took him two years to write it (Isaac Newton: The man who discovered gravity, 2015).To conclude, Sir Isaac Newton wrote books about what he discovered and made things to help change our understandings.
Innovate:
Isaac Newton faced some challenges. He over came them by using a habit of mind. One challenge was Robert Hooke, his rival, challenged him about his theories on orbit of the planets (Isaac Newton: The man who discovered gravity, 2015). Robert Hooke would critique him and he would get really mad. His reaction to the criticism was to continue life …show more content…

He gave the understanding of gravity, motion, and how we understand the universe. He helped share our rational world view (Isaac Newton: The man who discovered gravity, 2015). He was asked for an assessment of his achievements and he said "I do not know what I may appear to the world; but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the seashore, and diverting myself now and then finding a smoother pebble or prettier shell than ordinary, while the great ocean of truth lay all understood before me" (Isaac newton biography, 2015). To conclude, he changed the way we used to see the world and helped us with further
