20 Signs of Extreme Intelligence

Geniuses are born, not made… right? Maybe not. To find out the signs of high or even extreme intelligence, you have to look deep into the mind and experiences of a genius - whatever that may mean. If you see signs that you’re a genius, don’t ignore them.

The thing wich frustrates me most in life is when I'm just saying something in general and people become very defensive. I'm like oh no I wasnt criticizing you Im just analyzing the situation and looking for a solution.

Number 20 also isn't always the case. Very intelligent people might struggle with doing "easy" things. Either because they just dislike doing them or because it's just not their thing. The things we see as "normal" might seem very strange for intelligent people and they might not be able to do the "normal" things in life.

Strong identity, Lifelong goals, Keeping the peace,

Interesting content but I think you forgot to include people with good sense of humor. Extreme level of sarcasm 🤣🤣

Signs of high intelligence can vary, but some common traits might include strong problem-solving skills, quick learning abilities, adaptability, critical thinking, and creativity. High intelligence often involves being curious, open-minded, and able to see patterns and connections others might miss. However, intelligence is complex and can manifest differently in individuals, so these traits aren't definitive indicators of high intelligence in all cases.

I love this because I fall under most categories except being a left handed person. I never claim to being a genius except when it came to medicine because its my passion. I can at least claim not being below average ^^ I also was called weird because I'm an introvert and I enjoy my solo dates in restaurants because I really do enjoy it since I have so many things to do while being alone. Reading books on my phone or just watch a romcom on my phone. I feel anxious being surrounded by people because its just too much for me too handle. Quiet places are calm and soothing. I can think better. I also may not be a genius because I love clean places. Chaos and clatter is too distracting :D

[flowerpower]

This is excellent, great encouragement, for us all out here👍👍👍

*"you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again.”*

*If you are reading this, never ever give up, we have potential to accomplish our Goals and will succeed. I am cheering for you.*
Have a very good day!.

If you see signs that you’re a genius, don’t ignore them!

Great compilation, thank you. I have a mild objection to #3 because I often observed (in my 58 years of life) that high-IQ people had difficult time when surrounded by idiots, and reacted undiplomatically to them or failed to keep peace in such environmnent. Thus, would you make a list/compilation of what high-IQ people can't tolerate?

[kstealth]

Is it possible that I nailed all 20? 20/20 is clearly genius? Haha. Great video, Top Think has to one of the best channels ever! The narrator needs to do a face reveal, I feel like he's a long time friend. Blessings.

Just a couple of quick observations. The key to improving at chess is developing pattern recognition, like learning when the position is ripe for a sacrificial attack on the h7 square. And it's not superstition when there is objective evidence, like the thousands of videos of UFOs, or when you have personally experienced ghost phenomena.
