You Don't Need To Be A Genius

You Don't Need To Be A Genius

One of the biggest things holding back anyone to share their work in public is the insecurity of being less genius than fellow people.

But what if we try to stop worrying about how genius or intelligent we are and how our work will impact our figure in society,rather find a scenius(intelligence or intellectual power of group of individuals) and thinking to contribute our part of the work and ideation to it.

There are numerous ways of finding a scenius,be it a club or a Twitter list or a social grp .

Observe the scenius ,what they have shared,what they haven't.

Be an amateur,do it for love.
