text: how can i become a genius? i want to know languages. geniuses aren't created - they're born.  intelligence is simply the capacity to learn.  many geniuses tend to be under-achievers, for various reasons, and many people with less than genius iq accomplish great things in their lives.   don't set your sights on being a genius; set them on succeeding in your chosen path in life. :)  learn languages while you're young.  as you get older, it will become more difficult.
