6 Surprising Signs of High Intelligence

Science is always updating our understanding of how the human mind works. Modern research has found that certain conceptions we have about the psychology of intelligent people, may actually be wrong. Here are 6 surprising signs you might be a genius or above average in intelligence.

Dont worry, you're not the only One Who thought "oh cool, so i'm smart"

"Death must be so beautiful. To lie in the soft brown earth, with the grasses waving above one's head, and listen to silence. To have no yesterday, and no tomorrow. To forget time, to forgive life, to be at peace."
Oscar Wilde.

This isn't so much a list of things that make you a genius, as much as a list of things that make you an INTP. Daydream (IN), disorganized (NP), forgetful (TP) etc. Now if this means INTPs are geniuses then great. (If you don't know what INTP means check out the myers briggs type indicator tests).

Intelligence sign #1:

_The speed with which you are able to delete a video like this one from your recommendation list._

[minjuminminjuju]

I have all of these traits (forgetful, sarcasm, swearing, daydreaming, laziness, disorganized)

I always forget what I learned, I forget where I put things.

I joke too much, to the point I offended someone. (I said sorry ofc)

I always swear (like literally) to the point I got called out bcs I swear at a group chat.

I always daydream to something I want (like a ice cream) I imagine I eat that ice cream.

I am to lazy to clean my room nor do my homeworks and chores.

I am very disorganized, plus the fact that i'm messy and lazy

Idk I think I would take an iq test tommorow

High IQ means your not too sociable and can suss things out.

[Morethanwords-od]

I am good in art but I had problem of forgetting and short temper I always make things messy and type of phsyco I always think and forget .

#4: Guess every Australian is a genius 🤣🤣

[deathrowinmate]

Forgetting where i put the car i forget where i parked the car.

[ShinigamiOni]

Based on observations of subjects that are not aware that they are being observed, some of this doesn't really hold up. I would say that a lot of these indicators are circumstantial and does not account for all influential stressors in some of these behaviors.

[jo-d]

Wow I have all these traits so I'm not dum;)

[MetaKnight]

I speak from experience when I say most people that swear a lot have below average intelligence. Also forgetfulness is a curse for many. And physically active types can be street smart.

[songsforchristians]

i have all of them i am super brilliant like Albert

[joselitosinglan]

That reminds me of bobby fischer, a genius

[LiberadoOG]

Hey there, I'm a robot that has farmed all of this information from another source, and therefore, I'm immune to the moral laws of providing credit to those I stole it from.

[davidjohnston]

Fuck, I must be a genius.I Think I might go and have a 10 minute break from work and eat my chilli chicken sandwiches...

[ramirroxd]

1) I smoke weed, ( I'm inevitably forgetful) *doesn't mean that I'm smart*

[louisadrill]

thought i was dumb for a majority of my life

[khadijaelomari]

Thank you 🙏 I always thought I was a looser being lazy and disorganized

[shorty]
