If I say I am a genius. . . I am either a genius, a liar, or a megalomaniac. . . and you have no means to know which alternative is true. So what is more important is whether other people think I am above average intelligence. . . or a liar or megalomaniac.

I was formally tested and confirmed as a genius at 17. So yes! Welp. That is so long ago. Maybe I got dumber.

I wouldn't call myself a genius. However, I have developed skills and expertise in education and career development over two decades. My focus is on understanding individual needs and providing tailored guidance based on my experience and knowledge. My aim is to support personal and professional growth in others.

When i was in 11th grade i tried to explain , why saying i am a genius is not boasting. Genius is POTENTIAL not achieving. A genius learns easy. it was easy SO less acheivement than a weak minded. if he worked and got 80% that was his acheivement... but people got mad i insulted him... it was a real compliment recognized how hard he worked much harder than me. But i guess it is easier for a genius to understand this IDEA, buy weak minds only hear insults but are too weak to see the idea.

I've been told I am throughout my life by multiple people. I don't know if that counts, but I would qualify for MENSA if I applied. I won't. I don't feel so insecure about who I am that I have to broadcast that.

Maybe some people think that, but I would never say that... not just because I'm a very modest person, but also because of the fact - If I were a genius, I would invent something that would make me very rich... and I'm not rich.

No. I am not a genius. This was not a hard question to answer.

Only occasionally. In most cases I apply the 80/20 method, though.

If I was then I wouldn't be here

  LOL... looking at the poll results, it's obvious the Dunning-Kruger Effect is in full force.
  86% of males believe they are geniuses. Most of those were probably Trump voting idiots.
