A person’s adulthood will depend on their environment, their upbringing, on whether they received adequate curricular adaptations at school, on whether they were bullied or, instead, had a good, favorable social circle growing up. It’s important to remember that everything is subjective. There’s no cause-and-effect-like reality that shows that all gifted children will either be unhappy or successful adults. This, as a consequence, gives them the perception that the world’s too rigid and structured and their mind too curious, challenging, and nonconformist.įirstly, we must clarify one aspect. Contradictions between what they feel and what others express, to the point where it’s difficult for them to differentiate between what they’re looking for and what’s offered to them. Their daily lives are only filled with dissonances. However, one thing that’s frequently observed is that gifted adults, as well as gifted children themselves, live with the eternal feeling that there’s something wrong with them. Dweck, a Professor of Psychology at Stanford University, point out that many individuals still think that intelligent people have almost guaranteed success. This problem still exists despite all scientific, social, and psychological advances. However, it seems that no one paid attention to them. Almost 100 years have passed since he said those words. He said that it had to do with not giving people the opportunity to demonstrate their true potential. The thirtieth president of the United States, Calvin Coolidge, talked about the greatest problem in society. In fact, not all of these bright-minded people manage to feel professionally accomplished or even happy. Their childhoods are usually quite atypical so it’s common for them to reach maturity feeling excluded and thinking that their reality isn’t stimulating or exciting. ![]() Many gifted people aren’t aware of their abilities. ![]()
