Geniuses

There is something specific that I read in a preface to a book that reminded me of something so I decided to write a blog about it because I can. "Master pieces are not accidents. Geniuses know what they are trying to do." That reminded me of something Sherlock would always say. He would say that it isn't amazing or great or anything romanticized. He would say, "It is simply science." Sherlock is a fictional character, but he considered to be a genius and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is a genius for writing such a masterpiece. I thought through this because I am sometimes considered to be a genius, but I don't plan out everything I do. I also think, if I apply myself in that way, what could I accomplish? You could think, "Why would this fool go to a blog to write a continuous stream of his thoughts?" To that I say, "Why not?"

   Well that was short and random. I hope it was enjoyable. If you liked it, comment and say so. If you hate it and think I am in fact an idiot, say that in the comments too. I am going to read The Great Gatsby now. Have a good night, day or other.
