How to be Smart, Intelligent, Brilliant and Genius

Let’s start with the basics, even if you pass the MENSA test, and the results showed that your IQ level is much higher than average.

You could still be, very impractical, lack common sense and be utter failure in your relationship, happiness and maybe professionally and financially as well.

There are numerous examples of highly intellectual and highly qualified people, who had very miserable lives. Therefore, having high IQ level is not same as being highly intelligent, smarter, brilliant and genius.

High IQ level is only indicative of being highly logical.

On the other hand, being highly intelligent, smarter, brilliant and genius is evolving, creating, discovering, or inventing. [in this article all these 4 terms intelligent, smart, brilliant and genius are used interchangeably with each other].

You can have brilliance in artistic, sports, business, problem-solving, observing and forecasting trends, in communicating, in charming others or many other areas.

The smartness or brilliance and intelligence is highly expertise oriented, meaning these are the art of making yourself a master of something by intense practice, learning and continuous refinement.

Being brilliant in one thing does not mean that you would be brilliant in other areas too. Some people think that in order to be a genius you have to be good at everything. That’s not true.

There’s no reason to believe that Einstein could have mastered anything he wanted to master simply because he was considered a genius.

People with a low level of competence will tend to overestimate their abilities, whereas highly competent people will tend to sell themselves short.

This is because, the more intelligent you are, the more you understand, the gap between the perfection and you and also that need to further improve your current knowledge or skill level.

Get rid of the assumption that you have to know it all in order to be a genius, it alright to be a genius is one area but not in another area.
