Genius And Talents

There are different kinds of geniuses, like I said earlier; it all depends on your natural talents to identify the particular kind of genius you are.

Opportunities, past, present and future is proof that life must be lived upward. If you are going through hell, don’t stop. Truly the making of champions out of mere men begins with the making of somebody out of nobody.

According to the general definition, genius is a person with exceptionally great natural abilities. Geniuses are special people with special talents. People believe; anything a genius says is correct, an idea from a genius is the best. They believe geniuses are one in a million, Above all they believe only people with great ACADEMIC performances are geniuses.

These are the reasons I did a four years research and I discovered that we Humans are all geniuses, it all depends on your natural talent to identify the particular genius you are.

Talents are natural gifts given to us by the Almighty God, He gave us different gifts in other to co-operate; working hand in hand to become one in unity. So why should someone be a success and you a failure? We were all created the same way, it’s now up to you to discover what the Almighty has given you and make good use of it.

There are different kinds of talents; ranging from the creativity of the hands to the creativity of the brain and mind. To be somebody in a world that is trying its best, night and day to mould and squeeze us, is the hardest battle which any human being can fight without first identifying self. In this book, we shall analyze the four categories of geniuses in other to help people discover their God-given talents and put it to positive use.

Creative Genius

This has to do with creativity of the hands; we have millions of creative geniuses in the world today yet to discover their God-given talents. People with this gift tend to be creative from their tender age. If you feel and you are very sure that you are exceptionally good at writing songs/lyrics, painting and art, designing, crafting and all types of creativity that has to do with use of hands, then count yourself lucky; you are a creative genius. Don’t waste your time studying courses that does not blend with your talent.

If you fall into this category, it is best for you to follow your destiny in achieving your goal, study courses that blends with your God-given talents, courses that will help you perfect your skills ,courses like;

• ART & DESIGN.
• AUDIO TECHNOLOGY.
• DECORATIVE CRAFTS.
• FASHION STUDIES.
• FURNITURE DESIGN
• GAME DESIGN
• ARCHITECTURE
• PRODUCT DESIGN
• WEB DESIGN
• FINE ART
• T.V. & FILM DESIGN

Whatever you do just make sure you study the one that suits your kind of creativity. You are advised to join the rest of the creative geniuses in the world today by starting to develop your skills, show the world that you were born creative, you were born to shine and that’s exactly what you are going to do. After you had struggled successfully among the millions of sperm seeds injected into your mother’s womb by no less an agent than your father. You came first among the millions of those competitors, hence you are declared great. There are many famous creative geniuses in the world today, some are BIIL GATES, ELTON JOHN, MICHEAL JACKSON and so on, they discovered their God-given talents and made use of it, now look at where they are today, they are blessed with fame, respect and wealth just for making use of their natural talents.

To the YOU in you; you are indebted to plenty of praises. Being the first, the best and the only you. Therefore understanding your uniqueness calls for celebration. If you are in this category, it’s now up to you, to get up and show the world you are somebody.

It is the right time our professors and theorists who specialize on organization of class room knowledge turn around.

Academic Genius

These are the easily discovered people; they are the ones that score excellent grades in all the courses in their academics. They get all the credits due to the notion that geniuses are people who perform well in their academics, they don’t need to discover themselves, their academic performances will expose them to the world.

Academic geniuses should be encouraged to further their education in other to become an icon in the field of education. If you find yourself to be an academic genius, then do not bother yourself being a sport man or an artist. According to your talent, your field is to help promote education and distribute knowledge. Portions of your talent will also be used in the area of science and technology. Therefore all academic geniuses going astray from their field of talent are advised to come back and promote the importance of education in our society. You can write textbooks which can be more explanatory to today’s generation of students.

You could study one of these courses;

• MATHEMATICS.
• HISTORY.
• EDUCATION.
• BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION.
• SOCIAL POLICY.
• PHILOSOPHY.
• SOCIAL SCIENCE
• SOCIOLOGY
• EDUCATION.

Intelligent Genius

This has to do with the creativity of the brain, these are people that have extremely high intelligent quotient, they are sometimes mistaken for an Academic genius because of their great academic performance. They are people that use their high sense of reasoning to mastermind anything on Earth. They are good in creating ideas; they are equally good in the academic sector.

I believe the intelligent geniuses are the most talented of all kinds of geniuses. What differentiates them from the creative geniuses is that, they find it difficult to create with their hands but finds it easy to create with their brains. Most of the creative geniuses always have intelligent geniuses being their back up individual supplying them with ideas.

Intelligent geniuses are also called idealists; they have a lot of ideas that can fetch them their needs. They should be encouraged to work with the F.B.I, C.I.A, and other security agents so that crime will be reduced in the society. They can use their talents to mastermind and solve any crime case compared to any other person.

Although there are some intelligent geniuses that uses their talents in negative areas i.e. fraud, these set off people needs rehabilitation so that their talents will be used in combating and solving fraud crimes.

If you are very sure of yourself being an intelligent genius then I advise you to work hand in hand with a creative genius in achieving your goal. Those who have ideas have jobs. The combination of an intelligent and creative genius will result to a superb product, I believe the sky is a stepping stone for creative and intelligent geniuses who have chosen to work hand in hand. Intelligent geniuses are also needed in companies and organizations as their ideas will keep promoting the standard of the company. They are also needed in sports arena, as high reasoning is needed to conquer your opponents in most sports.

Therefore am advising people that fall into this category to study courses like;

• LAW
• CRIMINOLOGY
• SCIENCE
• COMPUTER SCIENCE
• POLITICAL SCIENCE
• ANIMAL SCIENCE
• BIOLOGICAL SCIENCE
• FORENSIC

And many other intelligent courses to help you perfect your skills.

Psychic Genius

These are people that have supernatural talents, their gift is the most unique of all the categories of geniuses. Although their talent cannot be certified by science, but it all has to do with the supernatural phenomenon which is far beyond the human knowledge. Most people believe individuals with this gift are evil, but I strongly believe “PSYCHIC TALENT” is a supernatural gift from God Almighty.

A person with this gift tends to see signs of it from their tender age; they might be able to see visions of the future, predict the weather and might also be able to locate things mysteriously. I think schools should be set up for people with psychic talents in other to develop and master their skills. You never can tell, may be the grooming and perfection of psychic geniuses will lead to the prevention of natural disasters and capturing of terrorists.

Just imagine a world with low crime rate, a world with low mortality rate, a very organized and peaceful world.

Why don’t we join hands together and archive this goal by establishing recognized psychic schools all over the world. Science cannot solve all our problems; we need a super natural intervention to solve all problems.

For now I don’t think there are any certified psychic schools, so I am advising people with this talent to self-develop their skills and study courses that will blend with their talents.

You can study courses like;

• ASTROLOGY
• PSYCHOLOGY
• ARCHEOLOGY
• GEOLOGY
• HISTORY
• THEOLOGY

But make sure it’s the one that suits your kind of talent.

Failure And Its Cause

Many people assign the cause of failure to be an individual’s lack of seriousness or commitment to what they do. Parents believe their children fail exams just because they didn’t prepare for it. As a result of the child’s failure they punish/scold the child in other to make him/her prepare in his/her next exams.

This book is a product of my belief, research, experience and conviction, the experience I mean also include observation. According to my research; In an exam I observed that some students passed excellently, some passed averagely, while some fail. This is not because the ones that failed are dullards or they didn’t prepare for their exams, Well we will all agree that if they had prepared, they would have at least passed fairly, the point am trying to bring out is that most children who fail their exams or always pass averagely/fairly might have a different talent from students who always pass excellently. Another point might be that their talents do not blend with the course they are studying. For example; a creative genius cannot perform well in studying law, there is no way a creative genius can defeat an academic genius in an academic exams. The same goes vise versa, there is no way an academic genius can defeat a creative genius when it comes to practical creative exams.

In my research I also observed that a child with an academic talent “ACADEMIC GENIUS” puts in little effort when preparing for an exam; at the end of it, the child still performs better than an ordinary child who puts in more effort in preparing for the same exams.

But don’t get me wrong not all children who fail an exam are non-Academic genius. An academic genius will still fail an exam if he/she does not prepare for the exam. So all students should always be encouraged to take their studies seriously, I just want to prove to parents of nowadays who condemn and punish/scold their child for not passing well in an exam, that it might not necessarily be the fault of the child, it all depends on the child’s talent which needs to be discovered, I therefore advise parents to observe and study their children in other to help them discover their God-given talents and place them on the right track. Am also advising parents not to force their children in studying a course, children should study courses that blends along with their God-given talents, for example; There is absolutely no way an intelligent genius can perform in creative arts.

Conclusion

After studying this book, I like you to relax and think about what you are really good at, Start developing your skills and put it to perfection.

“DO” – The most powerful of all words the English alphabets is able to form, He who does nothing hopes for nothing, you must do something; manna does not fall from heaven to HE/SHE that does nothing.

Don’t hang on your worries doubts and fears too solid as if you would never let it go, be life positive; be like a child expecting all the good things of life. The mistake of assuming that those who had but little “schooling” were not educated shows that those who make this mistake do not understand the real meaning of the word “EDUCATE”. That word is derived from the Latin word “educo” meaning to educe, to draw out, and to develop from within. Therefore any man who knows where to get knowledge from when he needs it, is educated; and how to organize that knowledge into definite plans of action.

As you go on maintaining appreciable level of positive mental attitude for work, “Do not be envious of bad men and do not show yourself craving to get in with them for fear you may become master of evil ideas” so says the HOLY BIBLE.

Our young men are in a hurry to acquire wealth with the conspicuous consumption and flashy life that go with it. Years of tedious studies and hard work required for acquisition of skills do not appear to be commensurately rewarded at the end of the day, that is the more reason you need to discover and tap your God-given talent, then present your handwork to the world and see the reaction you get.

Always remember to put the ALMIGHTY GOD first in every thing you do, for it was/is HE that gave you the gift you are about to discover.

Because yesterday’s dreamers dreamed and translated their dreams into an organized thoughts, that’s why their dreams witnessed unsolicited acceptance. There is a general saying people use for successful men/women, that says; “The sky is your limit”, by discovering your God-given talents, I tell you “The sky is just a stepping stone”. No one has ever become what he/she wants to be without first deciding on it.

One more thing before I sign out, I wish to thank all those who encouraged me through this turbulent exercise and also to thank those who by their discouraging remarks refueled my conviction.

God Bless.
