Had the top conversation in third grade. Have spent the rest of my life in the blue zone.

I avoided it by coasting, they did testing in kindergarten and I realized fast I didn’t want the attention. Especially being treated like a trophy by my dad.

Do I regret coasting now, of course. Do it for your self-confidence, later in life you’ll be happier you did.

So I'm curious, how did you end up? Is there anything in your adult life that indicates your capabilities are above average?
