After years of grueling training, the myriad of know hows and absorbing most of the tips to "succeed" in life I have arrived at the single all encompassing solution.. DUMB DOWN YOUR INSTINCTS (DDYI)
Yes, may be I am being "a master of the obvious" as Scott Adams would have put it but nevertheless I stand by this statement.Lets look at a few scenarios
1) A big plate full of delicious treats, a few toddlers.Instinct - Grab as many as possible. Result - Slap on the wrist. Lesson - DDYI
2) Big bully in school flunks science.Instinct- You say "Jackass, grow a brain". Result - Two black eyes, a broken nose.Lesson - DDYI
3) Dumb lecturer in college. Instinct - You say "You dont deserve respect you Lilliput brain". Result - Answer script used as toilet paper. Lesson- DDYI
4) Mind numbing company. Instinct - "Get out of my life PLEASE. I couldnt care less about your meager lives". Result -Negative feedback on interpersonal communication skills and team work abilities. Lesson - DDYI
My ramblings can go on and on but you get the point. All through our lives, all that we are taught and learn just mask what we are to begin with. The true test of intelligence is not in proving your superiority over others, its in learning to dumb down to their level. So the next time you see a really dumb person, dont judge him harshly. He may be the one who's adapted better than you. [:)]
