You know I always hear about gifted kids who stayed working and ended up getting burn out because they were constantly pushing.
But what about gifted kids who just stopped?
I was considered a gifted kid for my whole childhood but at one point I just stopped working cause I believed I was better than everyone, so my grades slipped a lot.
I went from passing everything with flying colours and people wanting to push me up 2 grades, to failing every class and not knowing what to do with myself.
And the worse thing about this is when all anyone can do is compare you to when you were 7.
Anyone else?
Just a tired old cliche…
I’m 23 years old and just waking up to the fact that I will never achieve what I thought I would. The person I am now is so vastly different from that smart and talented 16 year old with so much potential.

“I’ve wasted a lot of time in my life. I’ve thought too much about what people will say or what they’re gonna think. And sometimes it’s over silly things like going to the grocery store or going to the post office. But there have been times when I really stopped myself from doing something special. All because I was scared someone might look at me and decide I wasn’t good enough. But you don’t have to bother with that nonsense. I wasted all that time so you don’t have to.”
