  • Interesting because i think i identified the same problem as you but i think of it as delusion. A lot of people (most people?) honestly believe that being smart means figuring things out with little effort. But all the smartest people ive ever met are extremely well organized and hardworking BECAUSE they’re so smart. They’re able to see the big picture and have a very sharp insight that problems are solved with an organized well planned approach, which often involves a lot of tedium.

    Smart people aren’t bored by that, they see how the tedium ties directly into success/solutions/rewards. Dumb people really believe that they can be smart by divining solutions and that could not be further from the truth
