I'm Not Smart Enough
Posted by Ken Lauher

Your vast intelligence isn't measurable by an IQ test, nor is it susceptible to the analysis of school transcripts. Your ideas or beliefs about what you'd like to be, accomplish, or attract are evidence of your genius. If you're capable of conceiving it, then that act of visual conception, combined with your passion for manifesting your idea into reality, is all you need to activate your genius.
If you think that it's impossible to categorize yourself as a genius, I emphatically ask: Why not? You originated in the same infinite field of intention as everyone else who's ever lived. Your mind is a component of the mind of God or the universal Tao, so how could it be other than the brilliance of the Creator?
Were you not created out of this vast sea of invisible intelligence? Are your ideas somehow inferior, or incapable of being transformed into this material world? Even as part of you hangs on to the, "I'm not smart enough" excuse, another part recognizes this truth.
When you state, "
I've never been smart enough," you're really saying, "
I've bought into a definition of intelligence that's measured by what family members or educators provided me with earlier in life." You can give yourself encouraging input instead of the discouraging messages from your past by knowing that intelligence can never be measured, nor can it in any way be limited.
So it you're willing to put your passion and perseverance into your ideas, you'll meet the genius part of you. Even f you subscribe to the idea that this excuse is warranted because your brain is somehow not up to par, consider the conclusions that Sharon Begley offers in her book
Train Your Mind, Change Your Brain.
Here's what she says about the power of the brain to change, not through prescription drugs, but through the will: "The conscious act of thinking about one's thoughts in a different way changes the very brain circuits that do that thinking..." and "The ability of thought and attention to physically alter the brain echoes one of Buddhism's more remarkable hypotheses: that will is a real, physical force that can change the brain."
So even if you want to hang on to the excuse that your brain is chemically deficient, you have within you the power to change its material makeup - you can rearrange your old thinking system so that it conforms with the genius model. Why not think that the ideas in your head are by-products of your genius instead of a limited intelligence?
Let what Oscar Wilde is said to have remarked to a New York City customs official encourage you. When asked if he had anything to declare, he responded, "I have nothing to declare by my genius," and in many ways, he was absolutely correct.
When you trust yourself, you trust in the very wisdom that created you. Make a conscious effort not to second-guess that originating wisdom. Like Oscar Wilde, have only your genius to declare. Trust your elevated thoughts, especially those that stir up passion, and then act on them as if they were unquestionable.
