Who do you think that a genius is? Ask your self those questions? Who do you admire or who is your role model? Here, first of all, I think about the people from your close distance... those who are more or less near you...maybe someone in your family, your friends...Do you know anybody who is a genius?
Well, definition of a genius is someone who has exceptional intellectual ability, creativity, or originality, typically to a degree that is associated with the achievement of unprecedented insight. There is no scientifically precise definition of genius, and the question of whether the notion itself has any real meaning has long been a subject of debate. The term is used in various ways: to refer to a particular aspect of an individual, or the individual in their entirety; to a scholar in many subjects (e.g. Isaac Newton or Leonardo da Vinci) or a scholar in a single subject (e.g., Albert Einstein or Stephen Hawking).
Genius (genius lat = Genius, a patron, a guiding human spirit). Outstanding intellectually, spiritually and creatively gifted person who has commissioned mankind with their parts in the fields of science, culture, art of, politics, etc. In a purely technical sense, the term refers to the person who tested intelligence with an IQ higher than 140. The total population of these people is between 0.5 and 1.0% (Source - Wikipedia)
There above is a specified and official clarification and definition of the respective term ... What interests me is and also what i've noticed - What does the word 'genius' really means?!... In fact, we often find ourselves in a situation where someone (usually with a touch of adoration) for someone else says, "He's a genius." It has often been noted that the genius is a role model or certainly a positive example to those who consider him a genius. Now ... what does that mean? Anyone who has an IQ over 140 is a genius? The fact that he is also perhaps an asshole, does that matter? Say, someone can have a very high IQ and can also be top in their own business but outside of that he can be very egocentric without empathy for others.... For me, that person is not a genius. He's just someone who leaves a certain part of his brain and has quick logic and fast mental abilities in some situations. In other words, someone with "talent". This talent can be expressed in music, in math, physics and so on. Will I admire this person? Will he be a role model for me? Well, I certainly wolud admire his or her's work and the result of it and I would certainly appreciate it, but I leave admiration for people who have developed not just mentaly but also socially, even spiritually and in other ways, no matter what their IQ is... For me, this second group of people is the one of the true geniuses ... those who are, at least to some extent, understand the meaning of life....and in their own greatness is that they are always modest and humble and they do not draw attention to their own greatness and accomplishments and desirable attributes. That is a genius!
"You have a good many little gifts and virtues, but there is no need of parading them, for conceit spoils the finest genius. There is not much danger that real talent or goodness will be overlooked long, and the great charm of all power is modesty. " - Louisa May Alcott
