One thing that stop some who are bright is that we are so used to so much being easy for us that we haven't really learned to put in strong effort or to deal well with that that does not come easily. This can be a huge block to overcome. As a friend said to me when I needed to hear it "why are you beating yourself up that you can't read this PhD thesis like a novel? Someone perhaps as smart as you spent years putting it together and here you denigrate your own ability because you don't instantly understand." Sounds really stupid but I have seen it happen to many bright people.

I asked myself, "What is my will?" I hope many will ask themselves this same question with the genuine intent of answering. My answer is "To learn and grow, I will." I had found my will.

This is great, learned and reinforced some of the steps I had in my mind to achieve mastery.

I really like your videos. You said something about how it's important to connect thigs in your reading, that is so spot on. While I'm skeptical of how meaningful IQ tests are, they certainly aren't meaningless and if someone scores above average it's definitely impressive. I just think it measures puzzle solving skills more than raw intelligence. I could be very wrong. I don't think most humans have a very multifaceted understanding of intelligence at this point in history. In my mind intelligence is about many things and has a lot of elements, but one opinion I have is that the ability to find logical connections between many different areas of knowledge is pretty smart, and the ability to take knowledge and use it to effect change in their life, because that's ultimately one of the reasons humans should learn things, so they can benefit the world they are in.

I'm also skeptical of how useful many different IQ tests are for a myriad of reasons I won't get into. I will say that the WAIS exams test on 8 or 9 different forms of intelligence and are given one on one with a trained psychologist. The exams take awhile but I'm glad to receive that kind of detail. The main thing of course is what we do with our gifts and that whatever we do ... we do it purposefully and with positive intentions.

"I know it sounds to simple to work, but it works, it really works".

Hi Jeffery. I just discovered your videos yesterday. I was a little excited to watch some as i have been struggling pretty much my entire life for really no other reason than being smarter than the people around me. I feel i do everything you say, pretty much, so i perk up and my heart starts beating, then the let down. I do not have the same results you claim. The explanation i have come to believe is the reason is that most people, including everyone of my family and former friends are insane, terrible people. It may sound harsh, but it is true. I feel it is rooted in egocentrism, megalonania and narcissism. I call them losers for this reason, but the facts are that they are all successful and apparently happy people. How do intelligent people come to such different interpretations of the same facts? Major tools i see being used are cognitive dissonance, selective memory, assumptions narrative transference. The last one is so messed up. I could talk forever about it but obviously we don't have forever. The problem is that having a deep understanding of these things hasn't help carve out a path around them. Also, its not just with personal relationships. Professionally, i have been done wrong over and over. I once had to walk out because i was told i "can't come into work all happy and stuff, like i own the place". The owner called me, asking me to come back, but wouldn't make my supervisor apologize. I couldn't work under that new dynamic, nor should anyone have to. Just a tiny sample of the bs that i have dealt with. When you try to be yourself, when you don't sell out, when you try and do the right thing and you put your dignity ahead of your success, it causes nothing but problems. At least it has for me. And the worst part is that none of these people ever recognize that's what I'm doing, none of them have ever given me any type acknowledgement or complimented my character. They all have a list of facts about me that aren't actually facts at all. How csn these people possibly do better than me. The world is so messed up. Ive been burned out for a awhile, see no options or path forward. Suicide is not a thought for me, though i have gained an understanding of that as well. If i wasn't so strong, i may have. I basically just stare into the abyss all day and live in escapism. I can have all the dating life i want, but havent asked a woman out in years, turned down many opportunities with girls 25 yrs younger than me. Im tired of being around people who treat intelligence like the disorder, and that is everyone i have ever known. I have never said that I'm intelligent or mention the word genius never I have never claimed that I am right because I'm smarter. Tiptoe around people's feelings and respect people's beliefs and whatever else but none of it makes a difference, in the end they somehow perceive a threat. I know this is all true because I can turn it . I know how to change my experience, and be the person of the year. It's simply just turn off the truth, but that is something I'm not willing to do permanently. I don't want to be that person, I don't want to live like that. People are losers. That's where I'm at, buddy. Peace

I would say, don't focus on some fixed end goal that you might or might not reach. Focus on the process of improving from where you are now and see where it leads you. Enjoying the process of improving is key. Even if you reach a goal, that will just satisfy you for a short while and you will look at the next goal in the horizon. But if you enjoy the process you will be satisfied the whole journey of improvement. I can really recommend the book "The practicing mind" here, which is about this. Perhaps the best self help book I have ever read.

Could you possibly make a video about how someone could find their passion/genius? I have noticed I seem to bring myself down to others ‘level’ when talking to them, and it makes me feel odd because it’s not really who I am. The reason why I’m asking this is, I feel like I’m not an idiot, but my grades are god awful. I cannot find something I genuinely enjoy learning for a long period of time. I get these strokes of passion for a random subject & completely immerse my life into it for a maximum of a month, then my enjoyment from it completely vanishes. It isn’t that it’s becoming too difficult, I just cannot bring back the enjoyment I had before, even though I like a challenge. I’m only seventeen diagnosed with ADD, and I can’t do well in school at all. I feel like I don’t lack the potential to learn, I just have zero motivation or passion for any subjects my school offers, so trying to bother with homework or listening is torture to me. What would you recommend to someone who cannot find their passion?

Also, you're obviously not superficial and we live in an appearance/image based society. Be thankful you're different - it often means you're better. All my best to you!

Hey Bohemia, I'm sorry to hear that computers are causing you so much anxiety / paranoia. Having dealt with those emotions before, I know how frustrating they can be. I would like to offer you a solution that worked for me that helped to abate some of the severity of those feelings around computers. I am an IT professional, computers are my life, so I feel qualified in offering this tip to you. 1. Take a function (just one!) of the computer that you would like to master and dedicate yourself to it. This means to clearly define what it is you want to do, and figure out how to do it perfectly. Find a youtube video on how to do it. Watch someone else do it and take notes, making them as detailed as you need them to be in order to have a successful go at it by yourself with only your notes. Most importantly, be kind to yourself during this process. Know that you are capable of mastering this skill, it is only a matter of when you will learn it and how patient you will be with yourself to make the process easier. 2. After practicing the skill with your notes (and without them once you have it mastered) reflect on how difficult the task seemed before all of the practice you put in. Now look at it. It seems almost too easy. That is the result of dedicated practice. Practice and repeat. Again and again. Stay patient and confident that you will master this task. You can do this :) Hope this helps! Again, its something that works for me; tweak it as you see fit, and remain truly dedicated to the task and you will master it. Edit: Just wanted to add to start from the beginning. If it is difficult to search the internet for something you want to find, start with logging on and opening your internet browser. Step one and two accomplished!! Now define what step three will be (typing 'dog' into the web browser for example) and keep adding to the steps untill you've mastered how to search for dogs on the internet. Next, try to save a picture of a dog. You see how this progresses? Keep adding complexity gradually, not all at once. Trying to figure out how to run a virtual machine when you're having trouble accessing your email is not realistic. Start simple!

When you change it write it down and keep it somewhere on you like a wallet. Write down the steps in changing it. Make a note of where on the screen you need to click, and so on. Be very detailed in your notes and practice. I hope it gets better for you!! They really are hard to get used to at first, but that repetition (and I mean a lot of it!) should make it somewhat better. Smile when you do it. Don't ask me how that works, but try it.

Interesting. My principles to becoming smarter was simple. Break down everything to it's simplest form and you can learn any and everything very quickly. My philosophy came down to 4 simple words. Keep things 'Simple', 'Flexible', 'Consistent,' and have the 'Discipline' to keep things together. For example, smart persons tend to learn patterns where as others tend to try and learn everything at once and quickly crash. By learning patterns you can quickly apply the same concepts in other areas of interest by mixing and matching other patterns you've learned before, therefore quickly mastering several areas at once. By learning patterns you keep things simple, consistent and flexible...but of course if you want to be smarter you'll need the discipline in applying said concepts. I could go deeper but I generally don't like typing long comments. Also my view on the secret of life is...life has no true meaning, there's no secret either. It's up to you to make the most of it.

I do want to give some more tips to help people, The effects of diet and exercise and sunlight on one's self, are amazing, we lose brain mass starting at 20 (or so i've heard), but exercise boosts mass in the hippocampus and prefontal cortex, or logic area. A ketogenic diet, not used for the sake that its a diet, but because of its effects on the body and mind, cause neurogenesis, or the birth of new neurons, and we are born with a set amount of neurons, in the military, they use this to their advantage by making their recruits exercise before being educated so they remember more of the information. Einstein who people see as a genius quite frequently, had studies on his brain after death, he had 17 percent more neurons, and Einstein due to his previous aneurysm, was forced to do this diet and eat only carnivorously for his whole life and died from an aneurysm the year after he stopped. I highly reccomend reading studies on High Intensity Interval Training exercise, nutrition and diet, and using that to your advantage, as well as jeffreys tips. If you want me to tell you all i know about the positive effects of this diet and the history of it, such as helping with epilepsy, allowing for better focus, having more energy throughout the day, clearing brain fog, etc. i wouldnt mind. TLDR: get exercise or do a ketogenic diet (cut sugar) and get your nutrients just like we did in history and it will reward you, i promise.

@johnpachkoski4637

I do want to list some of the benefits more here just for the lazy people because i highly approve of this diet and just want to help. The keto diet, puts your body into a metabolic state of ketosis, which activates two cell cleaning processes, named Autophagy and Apoptosis which kill bad cells through cell sucide and cell cannibalism and as byproduct produce new cells. This means that it deaccelerates aging, however, the effects of doing this diet cold turkey are negative as your body is switching fuel sources from glucose to ketones. There will be a time of withdrawal, and getting used to the diet can take up to a full year depending on how old you are. A ketogenic diet, just means anything with no carbohydrates or sugar in them. The reason why i do this diet, is because it is used to treat traumatic brain injury in the military as well it was originally treatment for epilepsy and reduced epileptic freakouts up to 50 percent. The reason why i dont like having a western or high carbohydrate diet, is because, It activates genetic pathways that prevent cell cleaning processes and allow cancer cells to reproduce, and because plants are bad for you besides their nutrients, if you think about it, how did they know tobacco plants were bad, because tobacco caused cancer, but why did tobacco cause cancer, because of the contaminated sugar that had carcinogens and cancer causing products in it, all of those toxins, were in the sugar in the plant, which are produced as a product from photosynthesis in which plants grow from taking sunlight and carbon dioxide and water, or the air, and turning it into sugar, if you study plants that grow by a highway where all the exhaust from pipes come around, those plants are significantly bigger. So plants basically give you toxins unless you burn them through exercise, or dont affect you if you dont have sugar for a period in your life regularly.

A very inspiring person, thank you a lot for the video.

Hello Jeffery With research and thinking, I learned that the brain points inwards to itself to hold information. Memory changes so information is directed to better map the world. The map can let us manipulate representations of the world by pointing inward to ourselves. Better maps make people more intelligent because they can influence the outside and inside worlds to a greater degree. People can learn to expand their maps to become more intelligent I believe. I have a blog (found on my about page) I like to talk to many people and watch videos on personality. I like Carl Jung. I like to make many sets of what I think functions are.

Something I think applies to you Jeffery is that you can hold more relationships in your mind at one time because you can activate more areas of your brain at a greater density. Say a grid of ten by ten to my grid of three by three. Also, you can control how they work together because it would not matter if they were disorganized. I took the stoop test of colored words in 2009. I scored 135. This is an executive function test. Many Executive functions exist, this is just of them. The test is associated with the anterior cingulate cortex. This area maintains the correct areas of the brain to be used during any task. Brain areas fight each other to do their specific task.The ACC makes sure the correct area is active, resolving conflict between brain areas. A friend told me that because Intelligence scales nonlinearly my score of 135 means my brain resolves internal conflict 128 times more efficiently than normal at making sure the correct brain is it active regarding whatever executive function that would be called.

I may have had an advantage because I have seen my records and I was in high-level classes but had average IQ. I was gifted in verbal but low in speed. I think it may be the case my Executive functioning was so high as a kid 12 to 19 that I was just given special treatment because I could complete tasks requireing planning of much older kids not measurable by IQ tests.

I think that the speed with which one is able to think can be both a blessing and a curse if it goes to either end of the extreme. It took years for me to slow down enough to be as functional as I am now. BTW, I like to read slow because I do this crazy thing called thinking. I like to ponder what I'm learning, see how it relates to others things, see if I agree and not blindly accept or read just to read. Are you like this at all?

Even now when I am slowed down I do not have that great of mental clarity. I make small errors the make trouble in math, reading, and writing. Sometimes I get a boost in reading and comprehension increases but up to 125 once a month 2 minutes. I am day to day 110 is reading speed. The errors come from the infighting, areas trying to inhibit each other. I do want to think and stop when I need to process. I read less often now I have the internet. But I think way more. I get more opportunity to share thoughts and that means I need to work on explaining my ideas which makes me better understand them. Isolation is not a good way to lean for me. I must put it all together, refine it, simplify it. Create templates. And know the primitives and elements that we abstract in making a clean system. Complexity from simple rules. Clear communication. Avoid one-way dialog. Give options. Sorry heavy thinking bellow. - In my cognitive mental direction, the info item immediately has a relationship to the universal uses of that item of info. That is why a person says A is a use for X but use 1...n excluding non X uses says that in all n used for X we can say X applies in all n... --- In my thinking situation a 4 requires X because 4 is part of n and n requires X. Deep learning operates the same. The cat is all the connections that lead back to the cat. A multidimensional graph of similarity and differences. Universality is in the application that the cat will always be closer to the mammals than to the trucks. We will always see similarities closer to similarities and dissimilarities further apart. In a contextual system, we would likely base evaluations of causality on the influence item have on each other as surrounding data. Correlation matrices, not analogical categories. I use analogies a lot. Got 135 figure weights. I see what I read match it to what I know from other places. Put it together. learn new Idea. This must mean that universally other ideas next to it must be involved, look at them, yes, this creates a bigger analogy. A correlation Matrix would not look at similar ideas but only ideas that came originally with the item next to it. Example, me and analogy. I read the wiki article on ACC, tells me nothing about the true purpose. I try a hard IQ puzzle cant solve, realize brain does relationships so brain areas must work together. So the ACC must work to keep areas from fighting, prioritize which brain area to be in use. None of this on Wikipedia. None of this in a correlation matrix. I connected it all together with analogy. I said a lot but you like to read slow. my mind feels more clear. this kind of how my mind works. facts and connections, analogies. not so much correlations. universal because I try to see it all relations not so much local influences.

Many people believe they read less often but in fact they are reading as much or more but don't include what they read on the internet as reading. Reading off the Internet is much like reading from hundreds of periodicals a day would have been in the past. It's terrific non-fiction reading. I used to speak using analogies and metaphor all the time but have drastically decreased that trait due to a lifetime of blank stares looking back at me and my own desire not to have to explain so much.

Dear Mr Ford For the longest time, I've had a dream of being a mathematician. It has always been my favourite subject and I always had a passion for it. But the problem is - I don't feel like I'm any good at it. My closest friends all showed talent for maths, while I was passing by with Cs and Bs. This makes me really depressed, and I feel discouraged to keep chasing this dream, since it always seems like I cant grasp math on the same level as they can. Your insight and advice on my situation and how I should proceed next would be greatly appreciated.

I've had passions that I haven't particularly excelled at and still enjoyed them anyway. That said, perhaps you should humble yourself and start with more basic arithmetic, slowly but surely building a strong foundation of knowledge using repetition and practice and see how far you can actually go now. It might sound like a waste of time (and perhaps for you it would be) but I have learned that skipping over anything that wasn't fully learned before can raise it's ugly head later. Also, if one method of learning isn't working for you try some others. KZread and other online sites have many free tutorials if you get stuck on anything. Best wishes for your success!

Thanks Emil, Great question. I naturally break everything down into its simplest form for my own comfort and understanding no matter how complex the subject matter might be. I also communicate in a folksy manner and try to keep the vocabulary fairly common simply because I find it annoying when people purposefully talk over other peoples heads and I don't desire to be one of those people. That said, we think in words and if we limit our words too much for too long it's harmful for our own problem solving abilities. That's why it's good to have time alone and get knee deep in good books and I also enjoy listening to various lectures by a diverse lot of speakers online.

There is multiple ways to measure IQ, for example logical IQ and mathematical IQ, a person with high iq in one of the types also has a higher possibility to have a higher IQ in some other way but that is not always true. If you study enough, think before you act, plan and make up a strategy to succed you can higher your possibility to get a good life tremendously. Sometimes I feel like when thinking about a math problem that it is just like climbing up a mountainside, when you are just about to reach the top you feel really exhausted and most people will climb down again and prepare for a new attempt or give up but the ones with the most willpower can finish it and rest at the top and then climb another mountainside, the little extra push is really not taking much energy and the ones that is most strong(and in the math case the most intelligent) can do it easier than other but if you just try you can even climb higher than the strongest and with equipment you did remember to bring(in the math case: formulas and strategies) you can do it even easier, so when you have to calculate math, always remember to study much and stay focused, if the math problem gets to hard to calculate, always try to find a new way, only pause when you reach "checkpoints" in the "mountainside" or to find a new and better way to success. Just pure intelligence brings you nowhere, in training: do much of what is hard and less of what is easy and in competition do everything that is easy and then you are done, turn hard into easy and keep easy easy and everything will be yours. Also google "famous persons with low IQ" if you need something to believe in. And most well known geniuses did not have well known genius parents.

also i have another question!, alot of geniuses are gifted with good memories, do you have a good memory?,can you recall lots oof info from books you've read? ect?

People who possess what is considered a high IQ by today's standards can be amazing such as yourself but one can also do things frawned upon or outlawed by the governing body more effectively than the average person so I think that having a high IQ doesn't guarantee a person will act in a way that we call and consider civilized. My IQ is 140 and when I was listening to Jeffrey Dahmer speaking I had this weird feeling that even though I'm not a serial killer nor want to be one I could just understand him so well it felt like someone I would be friends with if he didn't go down that path, later I found out his IQ was 145. When I talk to people whos IQ is very low I get this feeling that I'm putting on a show just like you said and when I talk to people who are like yourself I feel like an idiot unless they put on a show. With all that said my IQ is nothing special unlike yours but I'm glad I came across your channel and learned what those feelings I had while socializing were. Thank you, sir.
