Unintended Consequences of Absolute Self Confidence

[SargeMaximus]

The difference between genius and insanity, more often than not, is the difficulty people have in understanding the choices and actions of the genius. Once a mind becomes aware of and understands more than a certain amount that is a shared awareness and understanding with those around it, those observing cannot easily bridge the gap to following the why of how and what is being done. In essence, it's a communication failure.

This results in behavior and choices that sometimes seem to make no sense or be bizarre. The truth is, the behavior is being generated by response to things that others do not perceive, comprehend or consider in making their own choices of action.

I get this in sales sometimes. Often, all that I need to do is stick with the customer and explain things, often without being asked, I have to guess at what needs explaining.
