Acerca de esta escucha

Society, by statistical necessity, needs to focus on the majority. It needs to be built and designed for "the average". Society, by moral necessity, also needs to focus on the disadvantaged and disabled, helping those who cannot help themselves. But while the majority of society's resources, attention, and infrastructure is dedicated to average or below-average people, little-to-none of it is dedicated to the abnormally intelligent. And while having a high IQ is an overall net benefit in life, being a statistical intellectual freak is not without its drawbacks. Welcome to The Curse of the High IQ.

Whether you fall asleep during class, constantly ram heads with your boss, can't understand why people watch the Oscars, are an alcoholic, or are accused of having ADD, having a high IQ can be a maddening experience. What you see as the obvious solution is what the "normies" will fight against tooth and nail. Those Ds you keep getting in English? Your superior mind being held hostage by the boring and inferior mind of your teacher. And you'd like to start a family? Good luck finding an intellectual equal for a spouse. And so while the world obsesses on their own problems, no one is paying attention to the problems of the abnormally intelligent. However, that all changes now with Curse of the High IQ.

Curse of the High IQ is the first book specifically written for abnormally intelligent people. It identifies and addresses a litany of problems intelligent people face, analyzes them and provides solutions. But more importantly it aims to bring sanity to those who struggle with abnormal intelligence, especially those who are unaware they have it. So if you're constantly at odds with society, are suffering from depression or ennui, can't find any reason or agency in life, or just plain can't find any friends, consider purchasing this book.

accurate

accurate, relatable, and if you find at a younger age, it may save some sanity.

Another Excellent Clarey Volume

Everyone should read this. Well, everyone except 2 types of people: Residents of Wyoming, and Snowflakes...

Unique subject

I was always lead to believe that if you were smart life was easier on you. This book proved me wrong. I guess there are always challenges in life no matter where you are or who you are.

Great, Real Advice, Holds No Punches

This is not a book for the faint of heart, Aaron tells it like it is. If you are highly intelligent and frustrated with life, you will find this book eye-opening. Personality tests, self-help books, spiritual practices are ways to cope with not fitting in, and ways to adapt better to a world where you do not and will not ever fit in. However, reading this book will help you realize exactly WHY you don't and will never fit in and how to make practical improvements...and hopefully stop beating yourself up.

Good book. Disagreed with one of the conclusions.

The narrator was great, and a joy to listen to.

This book condenses a lot of information, and helped me gain some perspective. Even though I disagreed one of the arguments, I still recommend it, and found it informative.

(Spoiler Warning.)

I disagreed with one of the conclusions. What I got was basically: Use Welfare if you feel like it, as you are taking from those that take from you. I understand the sentiment, but that's not anywhere near true. When one uses Welfare, they are stealing from those that have yet to be born, as most countries are in massive debt.

if you're offended by this book, it wasn't for you

listening to this book was like having theatre seats to my own mind mixed with straight forward ideas on how to overcome the challenges of dealing with people who, are genuinely nice, but still can't operate on a higher level. It also helps me appreciate my mental superiors and the patience they have shown.

Great Book!

I definitely reccomend it. You will no longer feel alone and it pretty much covers all topics on coping with life and have an above average IQ

A good explanation of numerous things

Aaron Clarey uses economics to explain school, college, work, and don't forget about relationships.

Depressing yet Undeniable

There is nothing you can disprove in this book. If you have abnormally high IQ, you will experience everything written.

I have 146 iq. I started my own business at 20 yo. Never liked school. Relationships were pain, no matter how giving I am, I never felt good. People rarely understand me. I often have problems with business partners, associates. No matter how easy working with me, I never get the same ease working with them. They flake, forget, not organised, ok with any preventable stupidity.

Its depressing. Its fact, not narcissistic. Its even more depressing that people call it narc. My diagnosed narc ex even believe she was ok and I was narc.

How I cope? I do my best anyhow. Doing best however I feel is the single cure. My dad have very high IQ. He is a good example for me fortunately. Without his example and teachings on good manners, I would be alcoholic.

Maybe some religious beliefs also help, if you can purposely filter out bullshit in them
