Bill Landreth was homeless in Santa Monica in 2016[1]. Plenty of smart people have ended up the same way.
I think you might be making the mistake of thinking that being smart matters. It doesn't matter very much - if the outcome is "success" (whatever that means) then generally speaking having people like you is a better predictor than being smart.
Do people like you? If not then fix that. Read "How to win friends and influence people" and follow the advice.
