🧬 6 REASONS why intelligent people are TERRIBLE at making money

And why stupid people are currently dominating online business

👇🏼(Thread) to overcome your own intelligence

🔑 Reason One 🔑

It is too simple to just sell a solution to one problem
> Clear Acne
> Build Muscle
> Fix Credit

Intelligent people have a tendency to want to solve a multiple of problems with one big lever genius solution

Intelligent people have the skill to connect seemingly unrelated concepts into a constellation of one universal truth

Solving one problem is not stimulating enough for an intelligent person

📕 Simple Product (Clear Acne)

📚 Intelligent Persons Product (Wellness Mastery)
> clear acne
> lose weight
> eliminate brain fog
> more energy

> The problem with this is the product won’t show up for any keywords or search terms

> It’s hard to pinpoint who to target

> It’s too general and complex. People want their focus problem fixed

“loved by none, thought to be ‘ok’ by many” not polarizing enough

🔑 Reason Two 🔑

Intelligent people are so good at forming arguments that they can totally justify to themselves things like

- Procrastination
- Delaying until the product is better
- Switching to a new way of doing (lack of commitment/idea hopping)

Because every truth is a half truth

They can put together such a good argument for things that keep them in the comfort zone as opposed to just getting out there

🔑 Reason Three 🔑
Because of their intelligence they can foresee everything that can possibly go wrong down the road

And have a tendency to stay at square one until they solve the algorithm of how to move forward with no turbulence

Stupid people are too dumb to foresee these things and have a tendency to just ask for help or google as things come along

Taking in stride, moving forward

Versus staying at square one trying to solve everything that can go wrong with a master universal big genius plan

🔑 Reason Four 🔑

> Intelligent people make things more complicated than they need to be <

Stupid people see what’s working and mindlessly copy it and learn as they go

Simplicity is not stimulating enough for intelligent people

> They have a tendency to want to reinvent the wheel as opposed to mindlessly copy what’s working <

🔑 Reason Five 🔑

They don’t implement systems

Stupid people are exhausted by thinking and solving problems so they create systems

Intelligent people are stimulated by tackling and solving problems

And rather than implementing a system they tend to tackle everything fresh everyday

and attempt to reinvent the wheel instead of mindlessly copying systems

🔑 Reason Six 🔑

Intelligent people overvalue knowing and undervalue doing

A stupid person needs to see to believe, results in the physical world are required for them

Intelligent people have a tendency to value their knowledge of how to do to be just as good as doing

Unlike the stupid person, the imaginary, creative, thinking world can stimulate the intelligent person

The stupid person only feels stimulated in the physical world by doing
