Forgive my psycho babble, but being the smartest guy in the room and/or having the right answers should not be the end per se, but the means to anyting else. It seems to me that back in the day you were trying to please people.
When I was in high scholl I tried hard to impress by having nice grades, being the smart one, etc. When I got to college I became just another college student, barely making it, and had colleagues that had straight As when I would study just to pass the course.
It turns out 1) It was a real eye opener, I realized I needed to work hard If I ever wanted to become good at something 2) I started to realize my own true interests, and acting accordingly.
Just ask yourself a simple question: what really makes you happy. When you know the answer (or answers) to this question, you'll be on the right track ;)
