Had a dear friend that I called when I was stumped. He had a vast range of knowledge on almost everything from clothes dryer timers, a calculus question, astronomy, it didn't matter. He was a chain smoker, loved his beer and from a poor family, not caring about money or the trappings of this wolrd. He was working on building a replica of the Leeuwenhoek microscope when he died. Brilliant man with no ego.

My uncle had a registered IQ of 144. He became an alcoholic, because he could not cope with everyday people. But he overcame the Alcoholism and went on to live a near normal life. He devoted himself to learn how to speak Ancient Greek. He also read incessantly. He was also my favorite uncle

That nutrition aspect hit home with me. People seriously underestimate how important a good and healthy diet is.

Do not worry too much about your IQ, just be the best you can be and challenge yourself by doing things that scare you or are difficult. These things will give you some positive result. Be brave. You are stronger than you think.

When you’re intelligent enough to see through society, you realise it’s not for you.

[SuperAngelic]

I once worked with a career counselor who often repeated the phrase, "the world is full of unemployed geniuses."

[compumundohipermegared]

My father had an IQ of146. He went from poverty (no shoes, no electricity, one meal a day, if lucky) to middle class (always buying books, having nice holidays, good clothing, and other luxuries). Had a PhD. But also was always angry, I kind of get it. I think his high IQ level helped him to break poverty and become a succesful person.

[daninthemoon]

I have a 142 IQ, measured a couple decades ago, and am a big procrastinator, in proportion with the task difficulty. I always delivered on time, but figure waiting until the last minute to commit to a plan/design produced the best outcomes, although it created anxiety at times. I was iterating in my head instead of on paper if that makes sense.

[tylerbaer]

My father was a very intelligent man. Not because he had some PHD or something or he could do a lot of math (he did and he could) but because he was just one of those people we all know who just thought differently. He always said that he thinks that people overestimate the intelligence of the average person and the reason we have a lot of issues in society is because the intelligent people often assume that they are average and think all of the less intelligent people probably think a lot more like them when they really think fundamentally differently.

[boomerang]

I have IQ of 140. I find it quite stressful to deal with other people and I prefer to be alone.

[EyeofSekhmet]

My IQ is 147 and I can't imagine what I would do without it lol as a child, I would often envy the less intelligent peers, because they seemed to find happiness easily, but now I am so grateful. I always wanted to be a wife and stay at home mom, and my teachers were always trying to push me to do more...doctor, writer, psychology professor, animator, actor, I could have been anything, and I chose motherhood. In my mind, it makes complete sense to do so. There is nothing more valuable that I can bring to this planet, than children who are well adjusted and can think for themselves.

[nhtmhhj]

I was born somewhat poor and didn't get the chance to go to college. As I came of age things seemed easy. I found what turned out to be a great spouse. Built my own home and became a millionaire by my mid thirties. I had always thought I was average IQ. I breezed through high school even though I never studied. In my late thirties I happened across an internet IQ test. I took it and was surprised I was in the 140 range. I thought it was just pandering to people interested in their intelligence so I paid the fee to take a Mesa test. I was shocked to score 142. Suddenly it all became clear. That is why everything was so easy. Then I realized something. The value of spotting others like myself. I worked on that problem and so surrounded myself with very intelligent people. That's when my income skyrocketed. There is one problem. Finding friends is very difficult.

You are less affected by disgust when you realize that most things don't matter as much as you thought and some things matter more than you thought

[jessedevilbiss]

I was class clown in 5th grade. One day, my teacher asked me to just teach the class. She took my seat in the back, and I took her desk. To the surprise of the entire classroom, I knew the subject and helped students at their desks, standing over them going over the book. My teacher sat and watched for half the day. A few weeks later, I was asked if I'd like to go to 6th grade instead of 5th. My teacher knew I was bored and most likely wasn't surprised that I was able to teach the class.
Good teachers matter.

[Serf_dom]

I personally believe it's discipline. Every person I know that I consider successful are all very disciplined in most areas.

[JohanDee]

I did 2 very different IQ test during two different periods in my life. I came out between 125 and 135, so an average of 130. The strange things is, I always thought of myself as not very intelligent comparing myself with others. I always needed more time to think things through also. But I read a lot as a child, so knew a lot.

[Micloren]

Was born into a high IQ family. Common characteristics I’ve noticed:
- Constantly shifting focus of interest
- Often messy/cluttered
- Strong interest in learning across a huge variety of fields
- Overly critical
- On/off depression
- Love games
- Lacking certain entrepreneurial traits (orderliness, industriousness, risk taking)

[BarbaraMolin]

Regarding industriousness, I can give my own example. I was so smart in school, that I never learned how to study and be industrious. Everything came very easily to me all the way to highschool. So when suddenly in university, work became necessary, I didn’t have the skills and rather than learn them, I just quit. My friends, on the other hand, learned how to work from an early age and these skills helped them suceed.

[donbrabo]

As a person with a very AVERAGE IQ of 115 (officially tested 2 years ago) I still outperform some of my smarter peers and this was all because of my grandfather's advice.

First you should know he was incredibly smart - officially tested at 144 according to my grandmother and he always told me;

"If you aren't as smart as you'd like to be, be different by actually following through with project and plans because no matter how intelligent or dumb people are the biggest problem is that most folks don't follow through."

I kept this in mind and started outworking all my colleagues, finish all my projects and all that I could not remember neatly written down on a to do list and now I earn more than my parents, most family members and all my childhood friends.

And I will continue to grow because of this tip. I hope it is as useful to you as it was to me.

Bless❤

I believe the high IQ person is capable of understanding many thing at a deep enough level to gain interest in it. They see many avenues of advancement at the same time. As a result, they are more distracted and struggle to confine themselves to a single plan and want to move on to something else if it takes too long to complete the plan.
