7 Signs You Are a Misunderstood Genius
#6 if you know, you know
The more time I spend on Twitter, the more I think I’m a misunderstood genius.
After discussing with my other misunderstood genius friends, I realized we all shared seven characteristics. Maybe you have them too and would like to join our club?
#1 — You’ll be recognized in the future (after your death)
During my latest Ayahuasca experience, I traveled two hundred years in the future and saw billboards with my face all over the planet. I was uber-famous.
The extra-corporal trip was too short to discover why. But it’s comforting to know that what constitutes my misunderstood genius today will be recognized in the future.
Takeaway: next time you travel in time, check if your pictures are on billboards or used as screensavers. This is a future sign of being a misunderstood genius in the present.
#2 — Lay people call you crazy
I have this problem ALL THE TIME.
A typical example is when I talk about my ayahuascan time-traveling experiences or my vintage toilet paper business. People think I’m a bonkers junkie.
Do you know what makes me sad?
It’s not the fact these people misunderstand my genius.
It’s how foolish their great-grandchildren will think they were when they realize their great-grandparents could have bought the equivalent of a $100 million Van Gogh painting from me.
That’s sad.
#3 — You know what’s really happening
When watching the news, their gimmicks don’t fool you. You know the truth. Even if the events appear completely illogical, you can explain them.
And while your colleagues complain about the latest irrational and unfair government decision, you know what’s behind it.
You see the big picture.
You can describe the invisible network of connections and actions behind the front scene that put all the inconsistencies together into the shape of a perfect crystal of power and knowledge.
You know the secret intentions.
#4 — Your Grandma told you how brilliant you are
This is a strong sign.
Have you ever heard of a Grandma lying to her grandchildren?
What a ludicrous idea. It would be like having a Grandma preparing celery juice instead of hot cocoa with marshmallows for the afternoon snack. Total nonsense.
#5 — You have a physical characteristic
All geniuses had physical characteristics, especially the misunderstood ones. Einstein had hair, Newton had an apple-shaped nose, and Van Gogh didn’t have a left ear.
So if you have a physical characteristic, there’s a significantly high chance you could be a misunderstood genius too.
#7 — You realize I skipped number 6
It tickled the number-loving side of your brain, but you also know what’s really happening and fully understand why I skipped it (see #3).
What are you waiting for?
If you answered yes to all the questions above, join the misunderstood genius club today. And if you didn’t, well, what can I say? It means you’re not a misunderstood genius.
But don’t you worry.
You can still become one.
