Every now and then at work I start to get that feeling. Then I stop and think that I must be missing something, and I try to approach the topic from a different angle and usually see something I had missed earlier. Usually it is just a perspective thing.

I try to remind myself that I am not that smart and they are not that stupid.

No, and thank god. I'd hate to think there weren't more intelligent people than myself.

The wealthy and successful know that even when you are, you never let on that you are.

Worked at a hospital in El Dorado Ark, I was the smartest person in the entire hospital. But that wasnt saying much really.

On paper, I am the stupidest person in almost every meeting I go to. Fortunately, I'm pretty smart about the stuff I'm in charge of.

This is great. It really says something about your character when you consistently associate with people who are dumber or less skilled.

You can either sit around with people below you, and feel good, or you can step out of your comfort zone, associate with people better than you, and improve.

On this day, he was the smartest person in the whole city.



Full Disclosure:

I do feel this from time but its never a proud moment. Just the opposite really.
