They say that each and every one of us is born with a special gift, a specific genius.   Sometimes, however, we don’t see it.  We tend to bury our genius under low-self esteem, or focus on other people’s genius.  “Oh My, she’s a genius,” you think, “so I must not be one!”  Think again!

I, myself, did not realize that I was a genius until Oprah magazine deemed me a “….kooky kind of genius.”  Even better, I thought, than a regular smart genius!

Here, today…
…Janice Taylor, Life & Happiness Coach, weight loss expert (that’s me) and Our Lady of Weight Loss, the patron saint of permanent fat removal have gathered together a dozen #Genius Quotes that can help you uncover and let free your inner genius!

Read through, ingest and allow your #Genius to fly high!

What I do not like about our definitions of genius is that there is in them nothing of the day of judgment, nothing of resounding through eternity and nothing of the footsteps of the Almighty. ~ Georg Christoph Lichtenberg

Genius is eternal patience. ~ Michelangelo

Success is more a function of consistent common sense than it is of genius. ~ An Wang

Genius tries to conquer the world with art, with songs, with words; stupid tries to conquer it with sword, with guns, with arrows! ~ Mehmet Murat ildan
