"Genius is Never a Position Holder throughout his entire academic career." A CRITICISM

An intelligent man has a deep curiosity about the aspects of the complex things while a genius has the ability to create new curiosity provoking aspects.To put this in a nut shell, I would say that the dominant skill of an intelligent is curiosity while that of a genius is creativity. :)

Now please let me explain the reason why I quoted that a genius can never be the most prominent student in the class. Well, it is based on an observation that a creative person can never survive any type of monotony and restriction. You're mindful of the fact that the educational institutions have a curriculum which restricts the students to follow a particular syllabus. An intelligent, with his curiosity and witty mind goes through that easily. But a real genius, you know, never likes the limits, restrictions and the monotony because these things are the hurdles in the flow of creativity. It is commonly said that a genius hates the rules. That is also due to the same fact. But remember! Not everyone who hates the curricular restrictions is a genius. But if you couldn't stop yourself from adding some extra material or examples by your own in the subjects, you were a genius. Those who used to write beautiful fairy tales in their exam were also genius :D But the tales should have been beautiful, not jangling. Well, that's a condition. Yet they are second ranked genius. But in any case, a genius proves himself to be living in the world of many more dimensions other than 3.

CURIOSITY IS DEPENDENT OF SURROUNDINGS WHILE CREATIVITY DEPENDS ON NOTHING!

So, this is it. There is a difference between an intelligent and a genius. An intelligent has the ability to quickly adapt himself in any situation while a genius folk loves to create new situations. In any case a prominent student should not disparage his skills, because he's intelligent and it is enough an honor for him. But a genius has a unique position. He doesn't feel comfy struggling for being such a rank holder in the class. Rather he's more inclined to challenge their ideas and throw even the intelligents in fatal complexities.

Remember that geniusity can't be expressed as conveniently as intelligence can be shown. Those figures regarding scores and percentages that you're attributed with in exams can only slightly show your intelligence, but not even a pinch of geniusity. I hope so you'll no longer lament on your percentages, marks etc. :D So dont take such people seriously who judge your abilities on the basis of the scores you have attained. :) I have discussed only one chapter yet :D there are many other skills that cannot be expressed as numbers and figures. Apart of those expressed in the scores, you have numerous other abilities and skills, but it's hard for the people to evaluate ;) Stay strong and ambitious `~`
