I have lots of ideas, concepts, etc and they are always ahead of the time. I will expose them and people look at me like I'm weird, saying I'm wrong and/or it's is impossible, being angry at me (?). Then when it happens I see nobody.
I expose what seems like an evidence and natural for me in domains like psychology, sociology, anthropology. People think it's incredible and asking for my PhDs. I was at a 4 months seminar. I listened but never really talked. At the end, I give my synthesis of it and it sent in the final document. But, the professors didn't think about this interpretation before I exposed it.
I never learned anything following the methods at schools. I learned a long time after finishing schools that I am self-taught. For example, I went to Iceland for holidays and began learning the language. I don't know how and why.
I like to say what I want and it actually help the people. I told a psychologist to have more self confidence.
I also can "see inside the people" or "read inside of them". Some are like open books. This can be scary for the person. I'm used to it.
If I don't have to be humble at all, people of any degree are amazed by my knowledge and ""intellectual capacities"".
