Precisely.. It's amazing to see how many puppets there are out there.

1. Boredom: Intelligent people get bored easily if their brains are not sufficiently stimulated. 2. Anxiety: There is a direct correlation between anxiety and intelligence. 3. Intuitive Mind Reading: Intelligent people can 'read' people very easily. 4. Great Scale Mindset: They see the big picture and see different POVs of the same problem or reality. 5. Wondering: Intelligent people are always wondering about new ideas. 6. Fidgeting: An Indicator of an active and restless brain. 7. Peace Keepers: They identify problems before conflicts arise and find ways to resolve conflicts. 8. Cognitive Mirroring: They need to review new content just once to learn it. 9. Times Off: Intelligent people like naps and time off to recharge their brains. 10. Cognitive Flexibility: Intelligent people switch between unrelated tasks with flexibility at the same time. 11. Uncanny Recollections: Intelligent people remember tiny details from a long time ago. 12. Nature Inspired: Intelligent people find inspiration in nature to gather new ideas.
Thank you.
Thank you for saving us from watching 11minutes video 😁
Appreciations. 🙏🏻
13. they look for ways to save time; like looking straight to the comments section of a KZhead vid to see if someone has listed the main points, and if no one has, do it themselves. Thanks.

Many average people think it's bad to wonder, but they aren't inventive and smart. They want you to be alive and awake in the world, but what's the harm in concocting ideas in your head, even though it will divert your attention to your surrounding whereabouts? I've been seen as very lazy and unhelpful, when really, I'm just thinking a lot, and wondering on possibilities. I've even had people think I'm not aware of the world around me, because I go into my head a lot. Plus, some people think I'm unfriendly, dumb, and attitude oriented, because I'm so quiet. To top it off, I met people who thought I was nuts. Why do average people have to be so mean?
❤
When I was a kid, I wanted to be a professional daydreamer but didn’t know how to so that so I settled on being a doctor because I got to read and learn a lot. I’ll be that 96-year-old graduating from law school just because.
I get you, i have a similar personality, but you can't really change people. Even when i try to mask my intelligence it ends up bleeding out due to laziness,then people think im full of myself because i dont talk about a.i,philosophy,tech,psychology etc around them, but when i do im arrogant either way. Best to avoid people with fuming insecurities of there own intelligence. I simply speak to others for unique perspectives not to flex how much smarter i am. I can relate to alot of people perfectly fine, why does he/her have to be better than me? Leave them be its a large chunk of the population.
Everybody smart, everybody is an empath too. Infj too. 😂
Infj, adhd and high iq measures... I just can't find my way.. I second guess anything according to nothing being certain😢
Uh, if 'everybody' is then 'nobody' is...
I was tested in elementary school for IQ and was placed in a program called Mentally Gifted Minors. This was in the 60s. I totally relate to this description of intelligence. Boredom is a big one. Always wanting to learn more. Wanting challenges. Also an uncanny ability to read people. Thanks for sharing this video. 🎉 It’s me. 😊
Wow, look how smart you are! I, on the other hand, am dumb. Every new bit of information I receive simply reveals how ignorant and naive I have been up until that point. At this point in my life, I recognize that whatever I know is only the tiniest sliver of what is actually out there. It's humbling. Must be nice to be such a gifted, intelligent person like you. Why don't you tell us more about how gifted and intelligent you are?
I can relate to the boredom
Did this turn out to be a good thing or did it give you added stress?
Did you ever feel like you didn’t belong in school? And by that I mean did ever believe you could learn more outside of a school environment? Not that I’m dissing any eduction of course.
And now imagine your intelligence was never recognized Living in a classical "Because I said so" and "Just Because" household (for me it were 3, cause split parents, and tooo much time with my grandparents, who thought they figured it all out after 5 kids) And falling behind socially cause of moving, and late digital engagement (e.g. I didn't answer texts because my phone was taken away for a month (most of the time because a disagreement, I was never really bad), and when people asked me about it, I would never tell them the real reason, because with them having a healthy relationship with their parents, they would think that I earned the punishment, which would put me into a bad light) And don't get me started on the school system... (Germany) Well, anyway, I could go on for pages 😅😢
My dog is named Einstein. These 12 points describe him perfectly.
I am an old guy, 82, doctorate level education. I At this point in life, I find that good old KZhead provides me with a vast amount of intellectual stimulation on the many, many areas of interest I have. Very stimulating intellectual porn...lol.
I hear you OleManBalls
Well articulated ❤️🔥💖
Awesome! Thanks!
I normally disagree on many points with such videos, but I totally agree with this one. I exhibit all of these. Recognizing social cues is my weakest side, yet sometimes I do understand situations better than anyone.
When you think n rethink n rethink childhood memories on repeat, it gets easier to remember them.
😢 but I have problem remembering past experiences is it gonna work

12 signs of being Human Being
Intelligent as I perceive myself, finding someone who can somewhat relate to my ideas, and resources to bring everything together, has been the challenge. I continuously focus on humanity and have new probable ideas frequently. If your out there , and have the resources that you've wanted to contribute . Together we can equal the incline of humanity from its pace of decilne.
i am at this point just looking at such videos and not learning anything and only thinking "WOW THEY NAILED ME!"
I was literally weeping because it perfectly matches with me. Irony is that I haven’t accomplished any significant things in my entire life.
I am glad I saw your comment. The reason you have not because you are holding yourself hostage due to caring what people think of you and feel intimidated. Say this 10 times a day. No one is more important than anyone else. Life is short and I am here for a reason. So get up and shine. Been where you have been, including abuse in all forms. My next challenge is cure cancer for free. See my comment above for long term migraine sufferers cure.
You just have to find your "outlet" to express your intelligence. I go through stages of brain feeding with different subject matter... drawing, painting, carpentry, languages, reading, computers and operating systems and the programming, music (listening and writing) etc. and of course thinking a lot. Honestly sometimes I wish I could just shut my brain down.
Thanks A Million. Great Video made. I got Great Knowledge and it will help me.
Wow that's awesome 👍🏼
Thank you very much.
These are good Many are me. I have had situations where people have been in crisis and have come to me and I have been able to get them on the right path.
My dad says inly noring people are boring.. so 'finding' interesting things to do for me was never out of boredom, but curiosity
❤
i think intelligence is concentration and memory, because thats how you learn anything
studying by hard and forcing the brain to memorize everything doesn't mean intelligence. Real intelligence comes raw
In conclusion, introverts are intelligent. That’s what I’m hearing 😂
Informatif
When I am in school and fail exams, I feel incredibly stupid and can't really convince myself on the contrary

I'm Dyslexic and I never stop Day dreaming and thinking too much, which I lose so much focus. But somehow... Rarely.... I come up with great ideas that people are questioning me... "How do you do that?" OR... "Hey I never thought about it... very great idea!". I'm a slower learner but very visual and I see the world differently.
woah what ideas have you come up with (not trying to challenge you, just interested
@@user-dx9my1en2d Can sunlight reflect back at the sun? Why did companies start making paper straws if they can just recycle the plastic ones? Is sand called sand because it's between the sea and land? Where does the light go after it's produced? Where does smoke go to?
Well, at least I’m smart. The rest of it can be a neurotic nightmare.
I find myself agreeing with everything on this list, except for number 10. I partially agree with number 10 but I partially disagree. Essentially, this one is talking about people who can multitask. On the one hand, I do think this is a sign of higher intelligence, and I definitely tend to be jealous of people like this. I personally have never been good at multitasking. However, I also think that our obsession with multitasking is one of the key elements to why our culture has gone downhill in overall quality. For example, fast food restaurants. Fast food restaurants actually used to be FAST food. You got in there and you got out of there pretty quickly. But now? Well now they have drive-through. Now all of the employees in these restaurants have to do more tasks and take care of a larger quantity of people from different directions, both inside the restaurant as well as coming around the side of the building to a window and those people are expecting their food SUPER fast. This results in causing the employees to feel more stress and pressure. Consequently, the service quality has taken a nose dive. Good luck to the people going INSIDE the restaurant hoping to receive some quick customer service because all of the employees are almost totally focused on the drive through customers. I also think that tasks do not get done as thoroughly or as effectively and CORRECTLY when people are multitasking. Things get missed or forgotten. Important things sometimes. Sticking with the fast food analogy, you get your food home and then you discover that they forgot your fries! Or they forgot your drink. Or whatever. You asked for 10 salt packets and maybe they only put three in your bag or none at all. The fast food analogy is only one example. There are many, many, many examples in our society that I think highlight the negative impacts of multitasking and the lack of intelligence behind it. I believe it is more intelligent to focus on the task at hand, complete that task efficiently, thoroughly and correctly, and then move on to the next task. Would customers need to wait a little bit longer? Yes, they probably would. But ultimately, there would be much more customer satisfaction at the end of the day because they will have found the product and service to be of the upmost quality. This is why most people prefer when they go to a restaurant that their food be cooked to order. They have to wait a bit longer, but it’s worth it because the food is better and it’s hot! There are some fast food restaurants that understand this concept and apply it very well. “Five Guys And Fries” is one example. Anyway, to sum up, for many years I would beat myself up over my inability to multitask. But I stopped doing that because I have come to realize that putting 100% of my attention and focus into each task is actually a sign of higher intelligence.
The brain can only do one thing at a time. Multitasking is a myth. It’s quickly shifting from one task to another. That’s actually just more stress for the brain.
10. is not "multitasking" as you understand it. It's: Doing something, then doing something different, and then back to the first thing, or to the next - quickly switching through different tasks and know efficiently what to do, without feeling overwhelmed. To quote the video: "Bounce BETWEEN tasks without skipping a beat". He didn't said doing it the same time - which nobody really can, not effective at least. Because, like the other comment states: True Multitasking is a myth. Best example: Watching a film + any "brainless" activity on the phone = you didn't really watched the film. And most important, you couldn't FEEL the film. Other example: When you're working and some co-worker interupts you just for a few seconds with an other task, and you can go back to your tasks immediately. Not like my ex co-workers who didn't know where or who they are, and you truly saw how immense difficult it was for them - just because I gave them a 1minute-easypeasy task, which even a 7year old could do...
I have the following # Anxiety : always there is what ifs # Intuitive mind-reading : I didn’t tell my friends about this because they will that I can do that. # restless fidgeting : my legs when I sit always moving and many more #keeping peace : I always think choices of words what to say that will make situation in peace # uncanny recollection : my friends also question me the “how do you remeber that old events” But overall of this I still don’t think I’m intelligent person I’m a slow learner, Bad at schools etc..
if u have good concentration and memory , you probably are more intelligent then uthink
Intuition really exists. It is a super power like spidersence.
please provide academic references or sources
My sister's boyfriend thinks a person can't be intelligent if they have a learning disability. And my boss thinks I'm unintelligent
A slow learner Is just that.
@@streaming5332Just what? Are you trying to say a slow learner is indeed unintelligent?
❤
I have many learning disabilities just people don’t understand how brain process these things so I completely understand. Have great day or night
@@Anarchist403Well, hold on, I actually want to discuss this more (if you don't mind, I mean). What are your difficulties? And how do you manage?
Intelligence means knowing what's right question the unknown searching facts through observation experiment n not confirming with the world
What animation program is this?
All facts #evidently
I can totally relate to the above mentioned topics 😊 I prefer to live in my mind Palace 😅
These all apply to me, but then why am I still working at McDonald’s. I sure do get bored flipping burgers though.
Repetitive jobs Are Boring. But... You can think ALOT while doing them.
I think there are other things that are more important than intelligence. Like getting final killcam 360 noscope and everyone in the lobby telling you how cool you are. Talk about validation... I'll never have that experience again. Mostly becuase it never happened in the first place. But I like to dream.
At work I often say to myself "What am i thinking?" Because I tend to jump alot in my head with many scenarios or plans or future events. So Im always repeating stuff in my head to make sure i dont lose track of my thoughts. It helps set goals and get stuff done. I also avoid talking to people at work because they always wanna talk about something lame Like "Are you ready for the weekend?" what kind of plebian question is that? I see people that they dont wanna be seen as, what i mean is if they are insecure but they pretend they are alpha I can see right through them. Although I cannot bring it up to them because it would destroy their image. I have to be cautious when I subtly bring it up so they can do a little self reflection and maybe correct their selves. I don find it hard to socialize with people who only think about food and partying. And honestly Im glad im not like that but i wonder if they know they are not intelligent...
You thinking that they are not intelligent, doesn't make you more intelligent. It just makes you arrogant, which is dumb. No offense :) I also thought like that, for a too long time... Additionally they could also think that you are not intelligent. Does that make you dumb? Nope.
I am also glad that "I'm not like the others" (ever heard of self-protection or overestimated self-image?) but that doesnt make me better or more intelligent than the rest. Honestly I subjectively still think that I am better than most BUT atleast I also know thats objectively not true. Aand not important. :)
I will keep clapping for others until its my turn 🎉🎉
Intelligent we all are❤
nyet
No, not everyone is intelligent.
Why does it take 2:40 seconds to get to the point of the video, the first of the 12 signs?
I know! I thought exactly the same. What a boring preamble!
I'm so smart, I ignored the video and came straight to the comment section.
😂🎉
😂
You ant a lone
10:29 this happens with me definitely
FACTS!!!!!!!
My boredom, wandering mind and fidgeting sounds more like adult ADD than high intelligence!
That's what I was thinking!😂
I daydream a lot. I often talk to myself. When im having a conversation in my mind, sometimes I imagine banter between myself and my imaginary friend, laughing at things that were never actually said. I often have odeas that my friends think are crazy, and I am very unorganized. Am I intelligent or just crazy? Im willing tp accept either answer but I don't want to take credit that I don't deserve
both
@@kpl1221 that's what I was thinking too
I see my self in alot of this Situation.. also i have adhd but her is the problem i now i different and i also feel smart but i cant use my brain normal sometimes it work but the most of the time it dont do what i want . Also my iq testet with 102 . I dont belief in this number but it stuck in my mind .. i ask my self so much Questionen and i love to talk with smart peopel becouse the topics are why further then by normel peopel .
Well, this presentation describes a different type of “intelligent person”. Most of these concepts don’t really “hit the mark” for me. Perhaps its the entire idea that someone is wondering whether they are “secretly intelligent” is where it misses. I think that people who are “Smarter than the Average Bear” know who they are by the time they’re 7 to 10 years old …
My ego has never been stroked so much.
All signs are great ❤️. I can remember my 8 months old self and every events in my life. My 3 yr old self was asking my mother about life and so on. Just telling.❤️
Me too. My first word was “why?”. My first sentence “mommy why”. 😆
@alcryss000 If thats true, you might not just be high intelligent. You might have some kind of eidetic brain. Sheldon-Style. ;) Just because someone is veeery intelligent, he can't remember his 8 month old self. Or EVERY event of his life. I have a really good and effectively memory but I'm damn happy to not have EVERY memory in the brain as it happenend yesterday. It's more than enough for me that I remember more than most people. When you recall memories, doesn't the bad memories hurt like it happened yesterday? Isn't that too much, sometimes? I'm really curious. :)
And when you can recall everything, WHY are you even watching this video? You should already know, since almost the beginning, that you are high intelligent. What is intelligence even? Sheldon was very smart but also very dumb in much aspects. For a long time i felt superrior because "I am so intelligent" till I realized, that was so, so foolish.
Thank you o love the way you described it
Video starts 2:38
If somebody asked me if the glass is half full or half empty my responses how did it get that way in the first place
You're describing the INTs (and INFJs) in general.
I can’t learn something once, but I’ve always usually learned from yt videos
I have all the features yet, can't make for studies😢
I think if we're watching this video we officially failed the intelligence test. 😂 I doubt anyone is watching youtube videos to figure out if they're smart, if they're actually smart.
I like the video and agree with pretty much all of it, but I dont really like the thumbnail. I dont believe being introverted itself is inherently a trait of a smart person I honestly think that image is just being pushed to hold smart people back honestly. I mean, if you're smart you can figure out how to win over people generally and that will probably make you like engaging with people more, the more positive interactions you have. Thats not to say there arent smart people out there that didnt have the best social skills always, especially when young in school and all. It can be an isolating feeling to be so have so many ideas or interests in things most others dont. But I do believe smart people A LOT of the time do actually figure out how to navigate that and be actually even more socially successful. Albeit an anecdotal example, I'll use the valedictorian of my highschool back when I went. She was considered one of the "popular" girls to an extent. Threw all the best parties, friends with all the "popular" kids, yet she had the best grades, very much intelligent when youd talk to her I mean she could remember even little things your into and ask you how thats going and all. Just a social butterfly, very involved in the extra circulars and all that. Point is, she more resembled the left side of the thumbnail, she wasnt a misunderstood person that inst comfortable in groups. Point is, I dont think that is inherent to being smart. In some cases, some smart kids will but even they end up getting better almost always at navigating that. More in general feel like the image of the introvert, going hand in hand with being intelligent, can in some cases make intelligent people feeling this way just be comfortable with their antisocial l behaviour, almost wearing it as a symbol of their intelligence that may even otherwise be very real. I know i said a mouthful lol maybe a little longer than I intended to get the point across. Let me know what you think if you agree or disagree thats just something I've thought about for a while with the whole "awkward kid is always smart" or "introverts are smarter than social people" idea thats floated around. Maybe there are studies that show its more likely, but I think the popularization of introversion, justifed as being a sign of ones intelligence, if taken to the extreme only hurts smart people. Get out there and chat with people they aint that bad! And hey at the end of the day, it aint about what you know, its about who you know. If you cant get to know people, you probably aint gonna make it too far even if you're einstein himself!
It would be nice with some references to valid scientific sources that support these claims.
I do not care about sources, this is true take it and use it. See my cure for migraine long term suffered in comments.
Being the peace keeper , empathy, grey area thinkers. Fine. But I’d trade that for fast learning
I just gave false hope to myself. Wonderful.
Hmm...Every sign is matching with me. 🤔🤔

Thank you, I do not feel alone. In appreciation, here is my gift. Long-term migraine sufferers, please check your heart arteries, especially your right coronary . Blockage impacts blood flow throughput to brain. If the throughput is low it will initiate migraine. Frequency and length of an episode will be a reflection of blockage. Bless you all, dont let short-sighted people ever stop you from shining. Stay tuned for my next discovery.
I understand what he is saying but there is a lot more to it. I’m intelligent and I think he needs to study people like me.
I don't understand what you are saying because there is a lot more or less to it. I'm dumb and I feel you need to study -people like- me.
This was an X sighting video. Mr. X
There are those who are intelligent. There are those who are smart. Then there are those who are wise.
so if u have anxiety you are a genius, this video was made to make everyone think they are geniuses
2:38 you know, im something of a genius
You basically just described a lot of surface ADHD symptoms. 😅
All of them.
A lot of these things are more causational than correlative but nonetheless correlative.
agreed, think this was made for everyone to believe they are geniuses, we are the true genius realizing this video is generalized
I have come to the conclusion that every person that I meet is both brilliant and not so brilliant. We all have our strengths and weaknesses. Here's a question for some of you really neat people to ponder. Do you think that a really intelligent person could learn more from a less intelligent person or could a less intelligent person learn more from the really intelligent person. I guess that I could have said would learn, instead of saying could learn. Oh well. I do have a lot to learn.
The other day I spent like 2 hours thinking about building a flying table (hanging off the ceiling, I'm not that crazy 😅), which you could move around in a straight line, so I could use it for working and sort of hover it over my bed Well, the thing is, first of all I am too poor to buy the materials, I am no woodworker, and I came to the realization that it probably would be impossible to work on in, because it would not be stable xD
i do similar things. i was just thinking, what if my drawer could pull out and be a desk so i have more space, or if i had a sink in my bedroom so i didnt have to go all the way downstairs to brush my teeth. I also think that balloon lamps or balloon aquariums would be super fun and cool (with helium of course) but it would probably be a terrible idea
So if the thumbnail is right, if I’m intelligent I have to look at my phone all the time! 😮
that's exactly the point
@@kpl1221 Okaaay.
Now I can believe Joseph Joestar was an intelligent person.
I hit all twelve 😮
Damn I almost got all of them until he said takes one time to learn something new. No wonder I didn’t pass my cpa exam :/
I really have lost interest in most of the things because they present nothing challenging to me.
4. The gray-scale mindset: it is so true that the bkack/white reductionist view of most political activists today are causing so much harm to harmony in western society, and they are often self righteous completely failing to realize that they simply lack the ability to do politics because they have no insights into the nuances and complexity of social problems; to them, you are either on their team on not and it renders us unable to critize them at all.
I am infinitely simple ****
Agh!!! Why are you giving away my secrets? Now, everyone will know!
Is this accurate? I show almost all of these signs
this video has things in there that make everyone think they are geniuses, it was made to inspire everyone not just the select few
I thought multi tasking was an mental health issue, Or was that putting a bird in a cage then saying it can’t fly ?
Is this scam or?
Need to swap the thumbnails around. The average dope nowadays is glued to their device while the intelligent have self control and are out there on a social level.
I got bored from second sign, I must be highly intelligent here..
guy listening to music while watching his phone...yeah that's definitely the face of intelligence LoLz
How do you know he’s not listening to an e-book? See, that says a lot right there about you. That wasn’t a very bright assumption. That’s the only thing you can think of to use headphones for on a SMART phone which has numerous functions? Lol
wrong! if you're watching a movie or reading anything on the web you cannot follow the words of an ebook same time! he's doings both, it's most likely a trashy ghetto music video @@tre43210

I thought I was intelligent until I watched this video..... bummer 😂😂😂
How to absorb information like a sponge?! I need to be that type of intelligent.
Yall really need to stop lying to these people
