Highly intelligent people didn't come here for confirmation; They Came here to see how accurate these videos are.

The worst thing about being considered "intelligent" isn't bullying or stress, it's not having anyone on the same wavelength.

I'm in my fifties and I still find it bewildering that so many people don't seem interested in furthering their knowledge and understanding of the world. I'm still convinced that, for evolutionary purposes, self-development is driven by instinct, but perhaps the faults in our education systems actually suppress it.

I'm a pioneer in ADHD. I stood behind the piano 6 times my 1st day in 1st grade. I was told I wasn't cut out for engineering following 2 Ds in math and then graduated near the top of my class with Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering. ADHD hid my potential until a couple of great professors stimulated my love of learning.

Talking to yourself is a guarantee that you'll be conversing with someone at your level.

Don’t forget: high intelligence does not equal success. Don’t slack on your path, stay vigilant.

It hurts most when people don't listen to you because they don't understand. But it feels so good when they do understand you ten years later.

I scored a 128 on the Mensa test a few years ago so I am not "gifted." However, I find it refreshing to interact with highly intelligent people. Most of us are considered "overthinkers" or constantly "anxious."

Being highly intelligent is hard when you are surrounded by people that can't think for themselves.

[Ann-sdmw]

I've been around some highly intelligent people. One thing I've noticed about all of them is that they're excellent listeners, always ready to learn something new from anyone around them. They're usually more down-to-earth and humble than I would have expected. Another thing is that almost all of them are workaholics.

[kjquinn]

One thing I would add is that intelligent people tend to remain quiet and listen in work meetings so that they hear different thoughts and views. Often this habit is mistaken for being either introverted or disinterested when in fact intelligent people tend to synthesize and draw from many views.

[paulpine]

I have many of the traits mentioned here. I never had an IQ test . I believe that I am average. I am the smartest person in any room providing I am the only person in the room.

[kevinlogiudice]

Listening instead of wanting to be heard all the time is a sign of intelligence.

[beginnereasy]

To be intelligent by definition you have to be able to think for yourself. Also intelligent people realize they're smarter than their peers pretty early. They don't waste time expecting others to understand.

Me: who has just taken a cold shower, sitting lazily in a room, doodling in his notebook while watching this video, criticizing myself for wasting time, telling myself "oh that's kinda relatable", ... getting motivated XO

[benbelzer]

This is one of those topics that just goes on and on. It's really open to interpretation. I had someone tell me I had a trait of intelligence because I would listen to questions that interviewers were asking in order to figure out their formula of why they were asking it in the way they were asking it...like I was studying it from the outside and going in. Some people also aren't taught how to learn properly when they are young, and once you learn how to learn your GPA goes up, does that mean you became intelligent? Much of this, I think, goes back to short-term thinking behavior and long-term thinking behavior and are you making a difference in the world (in some small way) with your wisdom. IMO it's always better to be more narrow and zone in on how you can sharpen a field of study, something you are passionate about. Also, I think the whole messy concept is overrated, it's more about how productive your environment is. IF you are productive in chaos, then go for it. 🙂

[shrutirajput]

Fun Fact- Everyone watching this will relate to it and think that they are highly intelligent lol

[c.a.s.]

The trick is to put that high IQ to work. Even if you relate to these things and are very smart, you have to put in the effort.

[jethalalgada]

Intelligent people might have this characteristic BUT Not all people who have this characteristic are intelligent.

[toddnprepared]

It’s difficult being surrounded by most people these days. It’s almost impossible to deal with them
