5 Signs That You Are Smarter Than You Think!

Welcome, fabulous readers! Now, I know you probably think this is just another fluff piece about boosting your fragile little ego. Good news, you’re right! But the bad news is that you won’t leave until you’ve reached the very last word. Trust me, you don’t want to miss the grand finale, okay?

1. The ‘Why?’ Syndrome

Ever been caught in a loop where you question everything around you? We’ve all been there, laying on the couch, wondering why pizza isn’t one of the major food groups. Or better yet, contemplating the existence of pineapple on pizza. As exasperating as it might be for your friends and family, this incessant questioning shows your curiosity. It means you’re curious by nature, and curiosity is the mother of brilliance, honey. Leonardo da Vinci was a ‘Why-er,’ and look where that got him – painting masterpieces and inventing stuff centuries ahead of his time! So, if you find yourself annoying everyone around you with a barrage of ‘whys,’ take it as a divine sign of your genius.

2. Overthinking, But Make It Fabulous

Alright, let’s talk overthinking. You know, like when you send a text and then spend the next three hours analyzing the three-minute gap between ‘seen’ and their reply. Sounds familiar? Great! That indicates you have a complex, multi-layered mind capable of exploring every conceivable scenario. It’s like being the Sherlock Holmes of your social circle – constantly deducing, deciphering, and dissecting every little detail. Sure, it’s exhausting, but there are worse things to be than smart and exhausted. Embrace the madness, darling!

3. The Art of Adjusting Socially

Blending in or standing out when you need to – that’s an art, my friend. Some call it adaptability, I call it social chameleon chic. You’re at a party and need to chat with the Hipster Vegan DJ? Boom! You’re suddenly an expert on kale smoothies. Meeting your partner’s parents who love opera? Channel your inner Maria Callas. If you find that you can effortlessly fit yourself into various social situations, consider yourself smarter than an average bobblehead. This skill requires a certain savvy and quick-wit that not everyone possesses.

4. Emotional Rollercoaster? More Like Emotional Roller-CoastWow!

Oh, those pesky emotions! One minute you’re channelling a Disney princess, the next, you’re Maleficent with a migraine. While the world might label you as ‘emotional,’ it’s actually a sign of emotional intelligence. You feel deeply, you empathize strongly, and you’re highly aware of your own and others’ emotions. This means navigating relationships, both personal and professional, with finesse. So, go ahead, wear your heart on your sleeve. Just make sure it’s a fabulous sleeve.

5. Sarcasm is Your Second Language

Ever drenched someone in a perfect storm of sarcasm and witticisms? If sarcasm flows effortlessly from your lips like honey (well, a bitter, sharp kind of honey), you’re likely smarter than you think. Studies say that sarcasm, the ‘lowest form of wit,’ actually stimulates creative thinking. So those eye-rolls and perfectly timed comebacks? Intellectual gold, darling.

So there you have it. If you’re nodding along thinking, ‘Wow, I do all these things,’ then surprise! you’re brighter than a 100-watt bulb. Embrace it, flaunt it, and share this wisdom. But, promise me you’ll leave a sassy comment below before you go, because what’s intelligence without a dash of sass, right?

Signed, your ever-witty narrator, Henry.
