Genius is not a thing, but a process. Genius need the proper environment to cultivate talents like our well endowed genetically engineered corns need fertilizers and pesticides.
It doesn't matters if you have an IQ of 200 when you're born several thousand years too early. You never make use of your genius, except to make lot of babies and become the chief of your tribe, if you're lucky.
Granted, there's lot of people who are innately smarter than you, but chance are they're also stuck in various positions of life where they can't become a genius like a job at wal-mart, or having children too early, or is stuck in a hut in a third world country somewhere.
If you're reading this, chance are you have the money and the time to rearrange your environment and your behaviors to achieve mastery. The hard part is figuring out how to do that and how to sustain that.

You never make use of your genius, except to make lot of babies and become the chief of your tribe, if you're lucky. If you're in a stone age tribe, that is probably the most important thing you can do. Just because some stone age chieftain can't figure out how to smelt iron doesn't mean that they failed or are wasting their talents.
