RE: Float Your Intelligence Boat

in Reflections9 days ago

I'm not saying I am super smart (because I am not), but believe it or not, I would almost rather be a little less smart if it meant I was more creative. I'd love to be able to draw or be proficient at a musical instrument.

Sort:  

I wonder how many creatives wish they were a little more intelligent?

That's a great question. It would be interesting to find out.

I wonder if being less smart would mean being happier. I think I read that intelligent people tend to be very lonely and sad. That makes sense. Not having anyone who could understand you would likely be quite hard.

Probably not just intelligent, but people who just think differently in general. My mind works a bit differently than most people in how I associate things and it can sometimes be a bit lonely.
