Intelligence is Not Enough: The Genius Zone - Dean Simonton : 576

This episode of Bulletproof Radio includes a surprising amount of laughter that makes the topic of intelligence and genius a fun listen.

He’s researched some of the greatest figures throughout history and examined why their achievements—in science, philosophy, literature, music, art, cinema, politics, and war—have stood the test of time.

Be open to today’s experience (hint… it’s a personality predictor of outstanding achievement) and ...
