5.Blue Eyes
Blue-eyed people have a tendency to exceed expectations in the realm of strategic and self-paced activities. This includes most of what is accepted as academic science. In fact, many renowned scientists—Carl Sagan, Stephen Hawking—have blue eyes. Brown-eyed people tend to be more adept at quick response times and fast-paced activities. This means that dark-eyed individuals would more suited to sports or other reaction-based disciplines. In other words, there's a little something for everyone. However, in terms of straight-up IQ, baby blues are your best bet for being brilliant.
4.Trivial Hobbies
A study of accepted "geniuses" throughout history might reveal that the majority engaged in seemingly trivial or pointless exercises for personal pleasure. This may have to do with the brain's need to focus on non-taxing pursuits from time to time in order to facilitate recovery from intense sessions. It may have to do with the way an above average person sees their world and their altered perception of triviality, but one thing is for sure—this common trait was shared by some of the greatest minds in history. Einstein enjoyed sailing. Stephen Hawking enjoyed climbing, rowing, and even wrote children's books. Perhaps a tendency towards water sports is another little-known indicator.
3.Pointless Pursuits
Geniuses throughout history have been noted as dedicating themselves to what were considered at the time pointless pursuits of human activity. John Alexander Newlands was laughed out of science when he invented the first periodic table, while the Wright Brothers were ridiculed for their incessant flight experiments and even called liars while offering live demonstrations. Gregor Mendel discovered the roots of genetics and was promptly ignored by the science community as a whole. The point is, a genius mind by definition does not see the world through the same lens as the rest of society. Therefore, it is a lot more likely to undertake odd pursuits in order to achieve great advancements.
2.Doodling
There are two things artists and genius-level individuals have in common—the ability to process abstract thinking effectively. Individuals possessing higher intelligence learn how to express themselves in abstract ways. As typical communication methods fail the advanced mind, theories and ideas present themselves in pictorial form, amongst others. People with higher IQs tend to want to share their ideas and put them down in a way that makes them easier to understand. Artistic pursuits, such as absentminded drawing, may provide an outlet for that inspiration to reach the physical world. Van Gogh and Picasso would certainly make the list as advanced doodlers, while musical geniuses like Beethoven and Mozart chose a different medium for the same creative instinct.
1.Mental Illness
Smart people are oddballs. Virtually every leader in the academic realm has been noted for having a sort of eccentricity (or several) that set them apart from their peers. It stands to reason that a brain developing outside the "normal" spectrum of human understanding might also adapt differently to its environment. This includes mental disorders of all kinds.
