While I agree with what you’re saying…this comment section is a circle jerk for ppls own ego.

I was said to have been the most gifted kid in my school district. I, personally, always thought it was just that everyone around me was stupid. Over time I realized it was a combination of both.

Big up all the polys out there , use the skills and abilities in benevolence

Nonsensical, Society is always build to the advantage of the strongs because it cannot be devoid of confrontation as resources are limited. The question is; what is strength in your model of society? Who gets the resources? Is it physical force? Is it social influence? Financial force? Intellectual abilities? Peculiarity?

I think therefore I am, possibly.

ADHD has entered the chat.

Earth is not my home, and I’ve always felt this way.

"Imagine a society where only the strong survive." Am I supposed to pretend like that's not the universe we live in?

I’m not so sure about some of the logic in this video. I think you’ll find that unless giftedness is mirrored and attuned to in childhood it is quite hard for it to become part of one’s identity as an adult. What results is everyone else seeing it but not quite seeing it oneself. Also, we all have the responsibility to actualise our potential in this lifetime - whether we are gifted or not. People who are not as educated as they are intelligent are often miserable and even resentful.

Wrong. Gifted people understand how the entrenched (Rothschild) are abusing them and everyone else. Yet you still do not oppose your chatile slavery to AIPAC.

I think I am crused. Not gifted.

3:10 I agree with sign 3, but the wording "emphasize" here is not accurate, you could be gifted but low in agreeableness at the same time and here you don't necessarily emphasize, but at a certain age you start to "Act" like it, or at least "try to" emphasize more, some people don't even get there, take sociopaths for example. Since this video is targeting "Gifted" people, I'd assume that little details like this one matter.

That was really well put.

Fast forward to 1:00

Low abiiding citizen doesn’t do anything like it

There is no such thing as ‘gifted’ people. If you think you’re ‘gifted’. You’re not. If there is such a thing as a ‘gifted’ person. They’re just someone with a skill that stands out. My friend was a MLB pitcher that won a World Series. I asked when scouts saw potential in him. He said 11. I said: wow. You must have cruised into the pro’s with ease. He goes: you kidding? I had to work my ass off to get there. Another example? My friend got his masters in math at 17. I met him in first year chemistry. Despite his early advantage in getting his advanced degree. We are pretty much at the same spot career wise. So, moral of the story? -again, there are no ‘gifted’individuals. Those that succeed just work really really hard.

I see here an intelligent man and well grown emotionally which is not always the case at the same time. =) In my case no job (living with the generosity of my parents with 30 years, I do not spend almost any money but for stoic way of living) no girlfriend (some good experiences but at this time I am ok by my own, anyway I do not descart any future option) and chilling, sometimes I am doing some mathematics or theoretical physics or write a book, but just for fun in fact I did not assist any university (but I enyojed collage ambients with some "serious focused" friends). Well, live is not following the standard path for all the people, some of we choose just flow and mark our own goals.

I don't feel like I'm smart because I'm used to the way I think, and that feels normal to me.

We're angry with people because there's just soooooo many neanderthalic people alive who listen to rap, are Democrats, rely on government assistance (even though they're handicapable), think it's okay to disrespect authority and think it's okay to just do ungodly things. I think that warrants anger.

I have come to realize that "normal people" really NEED the bullet point presentation and only know how to handle information that has been stripped of all context. And yet, we all know that context is everything. What "normal people" do is assume that all people think in the terms their corporation/political party/religion has mandated, devoid of context, devoid of empathy, devoid of any actual field research -- devoid of reality, really. It's exhausting trying to live in the fantasy worlds of "normal culture" watching for the few who know and care. If you were a farmer, you would give up on this field -- it's rocky and barren. Turn your attention elsewhere.

Incredible insights - Managing your emotions is the key. I realized this over the past years, also the exhaustion. The only thing - no matter what - pushing me, is an insatiable hunger for more insight. I know it's draining me severely, but that's the price I feel I'll always have to factor in. And inflation is high. ;)

However I had potential for raising my EQ and IQ which I had overtime after growing up and studying books and taking classes.

In my first and second community colleges I was the least gifted out of my gifted friends by IQ measurements.

I was on the honor roll in middle school and high school and in AP Human Geography. But because I was in remedial English class due to a English being my second language and Remedial math since I struggled with math my class mates treated me as dumb or stupid.

When I used to chill in the cut, we called this getting big mad!

I'm 65 and gifted. One thing I can tell you is that nobody likes you. It's not because you're smart or dumb. People just don't like each other. It's pointless to seek approval from others. There are a lot of things in your life that aren't even about you. Stop trying to impress people with your smarts or achievements. Just relax and try and have fun.

i knew an old friend like this, off the first minute i knew this didnt apply but a good video

Thank you, this is a big help for me. I don't feel gifted because I still have not fully mastered FL studio and music production and its been two years. The algorythim is always showing me the next level up and I am constantly met with new VSTs and techniques that I didn't know before.

That’s cuz we all are gifted “You just have to believe”

I struggle with being gifted and currently very lonely, surely not surrounded by gifted people (it is not a lack of humility, I am humbled by intelligence ( and other traits of character that I find healthy) generally speaking, I am very hungry intellectually speaking and despite creating a business activity soon that is congruent with a market demand, I am afraid about not succeeding because I am not balanced and not yet knowledgeable enough ... So sometimes (still rarely), I push myself to the limits but in an unbalanced fashion. Thank's for your contribution, I have so much anxiety about my future, it would be nice to interact with you somehow ...

Good advice.

Looking over that diagram, I think I cut off interests after a while if they don’t have a practical (extrinsic) purpose.

Programming isn't about what you know. It's about what you can figure out.

Those were excellent observations, thank you for sharing them! I realize this is an older post, but to me, a year is not so long. I grew up labeled “gifted” and…I haven’t formulated a lot of thoughts on it, I was also deliberately abused by my school initially for being discovered as having a high IQ (which would be a ridiculous pattern of trauma in my life, that is something that could’ve been advantageous being turned into something deeply damaging by society). Overall though, I thoroughly enjoyed the basic methodology of “gifted” classes and was irritated to hear that this is now considered an inappropriate label for children. It wasn’t. We were different. And we were similarly different from “average” kids and many “advanced placement” kids; overall we were freakishly creative and capable of absorbing data in a playful, yet obsessive manner; we also tended to act like young adults even in early middle school - it was natural to us. Our brains also worked at the speed of light and in my case, like Tolkien, I was obsessively writing/drawing/building worlds, languages, and thinking about the future - this was “fun” to me. No one really noticed at school, but my parents did not discourage me. I honestly envied “normal” kids and at certain points in my life (partly, again due to society) was forced to deal with that and learned to basically function through what is now termed “masking”. However, over and over, quietly or through painful failures, I would learn that I could not be “normal”. I do not believe that I have autism, although now it seems any oddity or understandable struggle of intelligent and/or kids raised in truama is labeled that way (which seems rather dismissive of society, but that habit is also a pattern that now extends to gender conforming as well).

Very well said re people wanting to heighten their self esteem. Unfortunately out of all of the typological systems I feel like MBTI say as opposed to CPT caters to that the most as the categories themselves are broad archetypes that are behaviourally imbued that seemingly anyone can fit in to. It gives people a justification for their behaviour & to stagnant whereas the likes of CPT posits that type is fluid & there's no fixed boundaries between one type & another. CPT is definitely for those more interested in self transformation & expanding our cognitive pathways. I can see the pitfalls of taking MBTI too seriously & see this on forums daily whereas I don't see this in the CPT community on discord & Facebook - people are much more interested in self improvement & integration. As CPT gains more empirical backing as it's becoming more SiTi granular I hope the popularity of mbti will diminish although I am a realist as CPT caters to a much more academic audience whereas MBTI is much more pseudo scientific. With MBTI most people inevitably type themselves incorrectly as well & thus transcendental needs etc are not being met. For example for the biggest mistype appears to be (based on CPT empirical studies) INFJs who are in fact ISFPs & ESFPs & INTJs who are in fact ISFPs. I don't blame people for mistyping owing to the reasons you've stated above re a need to feel exclusive etc when the reality is we can feel alienated for a whole host of reasons.

Well stated, I still feel personality typing is helpful and enjoy pondering about it, but I find if one focuses on it too much it begins to dissolve.

It's scary that before he started walking I was convinced he was using a green screen/fake backdrop. A.I. has me seeing reality as fake, and fakeness as real. God help us.

A lot of the young women I've worked with over the last 10 years came out as "Non-Binary" but now that same kind of woman and actually many of the same women are no longer "Non-Binary" but have come out as ADHD. And just like "Non-Binary" they all celebrate it, Congratulate each other and never stop talking about it. Its become the most important part of their identity.

Can you think to much

I noticed a far transfer from my programming mindset to other activities i do in my every day life. I dont know if other programmers had similar experiences. For example, when i need to do something, it can be something simple, like using an available tool to reach something that is currently out of your reach, or fix something arround the house, and other similar activities, i developed a better creativity to do these things. This happens particulary in periods of some deep peogramming work, when i build a program, and i need to be inventive with some very difficult and complex features that i should implement into my application. During those days, i often get into this flow state where i solve my everyday things much more effectivelly. I did not have those skills before i started to do programming, and until i became a more experienced developer. Maybe programming brought the best out of my cognitive potential.

Im 40. But when i was in elementary and high school especially i got told sooo SOOO many times how smart and how much potential i had. I was smarter than most everyone true. But this really fucked up how i wanted to emerge into adulthood. They saw me as this wonderkid and i felt nothing special. Eventually university was great since i could act as stupid as i wanted to be and therefore had more friends lol. At this ripe age though i dont care: there is less pressure and i care less about what society expects from me to feel like i need to be and do something

I’ve had a very similar journey🙌🏼✨💫💖. Thank you for sharing your story 🙏🏼

Very well said, the devil is in the details 🙏

It’s almost like the pharma overlords are making sure every human is on one of their drugs
