It is always said that a person’s vocabulary tells us how much civilized he is. It is believed that educated people are well organized and follow a proper time table. But did you know recent research has proved it all wrong? Kristin Jay, a psychologist at Marist College proved in a research that intelligent people are indeed messy, swear a lot and stay up late. Are you someone who swears a lot, stays up late and can’t help but be messy? Well according to the research you might be a genius.
Swearing doesn’t make you bad
Many times it is said that people who curse a lot do so due to their lack of vocabulary. They say civilised people will never use such words. But the truth is your words you tend to speak do not have any relation with your intelligence. You speak the way you speak because of influence. Your surrounding plays a key role in your vocabulary and accent. The research showed that people who are very fluent in swearing are generally fluent in all other categories of speech.
Being a night owl
The research also states that intelligent people stay up late. They are more nocturnal than others. People with Intelligent Quotient over 120 sleep after midnight. There are so many scientists, professors and leaders who were night owls. Can’t sleep early? Not a problem.
Messiness gives birth to creativity
Your parents, siblings or roommates are tired of telling you to keep your room clean, but you just can’t keep it altogether. Well study says that being messy gives rise to creativity. Your decisions become spontaneous. The study also says that people who give less time for cleaning and getting everything organised tend to have more time to give to things that matter to them. Researchers never have clean and organised desks.
So the study proves that intelligent people can also be messy, swear a lot and stay up late. But this doesn’t mean that if you are organised and have a habit of sleeping early or are good at communication, then you are any less smart. It’s just don’t people for being messy, swearing and staying up late. They can be genius.
