Opposing Viewpoints
Some people thought that Tesla's OCD might have hurt his personality, and some people don't think that it helped him. Others think that his OCD did in fact help him see out some predictions in ways that could help people. Even when Tesla introduced the alternating current, many people still favored the direct current made by Thoma Edison. People had different views on both of these forms of currents. Some people thought that Edison's DC was now out and Tesla's was much better and more efficient, while others thought there was no problem with Edison's. Tesla, as a child, concentrated attention on him for purposes unknown. People can see this as good or bad. It was bad because it caused Tesla to be bullied and have no friends. It was good because it made him appreciate life and become a model for others.
