No, they don't.
Probably a solid 80% of anons browsing this board think they're more intelligent than they actually are. It's a result of being a shut in NEET and not seeing the world for what it really is.
I'd say probably 10% of /biz/ has a well paying job (at least mid five figures), the rest are low-paid wagies or NEETs.

I did not take part of any IQ thread, am a middle aged wagie that has been working since I was 15. Am 35 now, just starting browsing biz a month ago. I do not make good money, but like the place I work and have definitely become complacent here after working for 12 years. I am about a hundred pounds overweight and am pretty sure I am alot less intelligent than I think I am. Sup dude?

You're surrounded by the kids that were told in school that they were gifted and had potential, but flamed out in early adulthood and are a disappointment to everyone who believed in them.

/pol/ I would say vastly overstates their IQ and the average is probably like 105 or something (just slightly above average), although prior to the U.S election the avg. was definitely higher. I would say that /biz/ has a high IQ compared to most boards, you see it in the memes, you see it in the general quality of posts. This board probably does have an IQ around an avg. of 120 or something.

conscientiousness is uncorrelated to iq
(1) hard working and dumb - low paid normie getting by with life
(2) lazy/adhd and dumb - ends up in prison, homeless, in a crack house, or mooching on parents for decades
(3) lazy/adhd and smart - ends up as neet (not on parents' money) or does a job that requires minimal effort to coast through life, but never achieves anything of note. Feels pangs of guilt about it, but that's it.
(4) hard working and smart - these people change the world
/biz/ is a mix of (2) and (3)

Develop conscientiousness and discipline. Gradually start depriving yourself of your comforts and indulgences, and spend more time thinking about what you want to be doing. You can't do a 180 overnight but you'll gradually get there.

>Gradually start depriving yourself of your comforts and indulgences, and spend more time thinking about what you want to be doing
Started doing this more recently. Have always struggled with my weight and changing the way I look at the issue has helped tremendously. The discipline needed to refrain from impulses is amazing when compared to everything else. I also realize how much time I have squandered working on cruise control for 12 years, only applying myself when needed. Honestly trying to decide whether I should just quit and pursue my own start up or even to just work somewhere with a fresh start...

Think about what will make you happy in 10,20 years, not what makes you happy right now. Think long term.
After figuring what you want start doing shit to achieve your long term goals. You probably have to sacrifice you comfort right now to achieve big things in the future. Discipline and pain tolerance!

20 yr old is fine, 25 yr is red alarm blaring. Neet supported by parents inevitably ends in homelessness when they die of old age.

Practice. Do it again and again and get better at it. You can mentally divide the task to smaller pieces if starting is a problem. It is easier to start a small task than a big one.
