A recent Harvard study called the Zero Point Study looked into what makes someone a genius over a ten-year period.
This study showed that certain people have a special ability to come up with amazing ideas, think in new ways, and make big changes in society. These people can take their thinking to a whole new level.
So, what is this special ability?
The researchers found that genius is about how many different ways a person can take in and use information. We all use different senses to learn—like hearing, seeing, touching, and feeling.
Here’s what they found:
Almost all babies—99%—use their genius abilities during their first eighteen months.
By age five, only 22% of us are still using our genius abilities.
By age twenty, just 2% of us are still using them.
Why does this happen?
The study found that we start losing our genius abilities because of negative self-talk. We begin to doubt ourselves, look for approval from others, and seek permission to be who we are.
But you still have that genius within you. Today, try to connect with that inner genius. Trust yourself and believe in your dreams
