do you ever feel that you are an idiot?? that you are the dumbest thing on this planet??that there are so many more intelligent beings than you out there??because if you do it just goes to show that you are introspective and that is a quality that can be only found in intelligent human beings.that is something that distinguishes us from animals.the power to think about ourselves.the power to dwell on our actions and learn something from them.is something that sets us apart.so its natural to be stupid and its in fact quite intelligent to know that you are not the smartest guy around and that you can be dumb.
so much for the "feeling good about stupidity part".now comes the question.why do we act stupid or dumb sometimes?and here's what i think about it.all of us have a subconscious level of thinking which we do not realize or never pay attention to.and every thing we ever do is interpreted as a decision inside our brain.so whenever we take a wrong decision we feel something wrong about the whole thing instantly.and thats where our subconscious mind is at work.we instantly recognize that something is wrong.we can't explain it but we know it.and it takes some amount of information processing to know that we were right.and that eventually is termed as intelligence.BUT when that subconscious mind of ours makes a mistake we start thinking that nothing is wrong and we interpret the information around us in a way that matches what our intution has to say.and when other minds around you process your behavior they believe that you did something wrong and you are termed as "stupid!!"
so basically its not your fault if you are sometimes dumb or unintelligent its just a matter of wrong cognition at a perticular moment of time.
now here's something for the arrogant minds.for the supercillious souls.why is someone arrogant?here's what i think.one can be arrogant if he lacks that ability to introspect.which makes him so much less superior than other people which is the irony of it.One can be arrogant if in the past he has done something commendable.which according to me is still unacceptable because if you keep looking at previous milestones that you have accomplished and do not keep your eye ahead on the road you might just CRASH!! so thats again something unintelligent.
"intelligence according to me is a matter of self perception.you can be the smartest guy around when you are the dumbest and the dumbest guy around when you are the smartest"
