I think you need to put your energy into intellectually stimulating activities. Probably physical and social as well.

Yah, thats pretty brutal. One thing I have learned, never trust 'highest iq ever' kind of people.

its a statistic absurd to test IQ beyond the 99th percentile because there's no statistical reasoning to it, nor correlation due to samples size issues. anyone saying otherwise is just using IQ as a talking point and has never researched it.

you can just be called smart if you suffer in cram school for 19 hours a day and memorize almost everything thought in highschool and college. These so called asian people whose country lead in lynn's national IQ leaderboards (respectively s.korea ,taiwan and china) still aren't nourished with better knowledge and wisdom than many of us.
I've met many student exchange Asians from east and they are only as smart as what the iq graph tells them to be. They are indeed much better in theoretical science or mathematics but i bet I can take advantage of their intelligence pretty easily.
an average asian dude IQ always exceeds 100 but even with that for them Renaissance was just a thing that happened to other people (like Europeans and japanese).
these asian people are a machine.
Except for japanese ,all the other asian races never contributed anything on science or human race. They are just le smart dudes who are the smartest specimen for a rat race.

/sci/ board is indeed suitable for maggots like you who value a result on a sheet of paper.

I think you should focus on a variety of mentally stimulating activities. Use your brain in a whole bunch of different ways. Everyday, do 20 minutes of a variety of activities.
Reading: You could do some classics. Or something fun.
Writing: You could do journaling, or write a basic short story.
Listening to music: Do a different genre every day.
Playing music: Grab an instrument and write a song, or learn an instrument if you do not know how to play.
Learn a foreign language: Just choose something that interests you on Duolingo
Drawing: Self explanatory
Memorization: Do the classic Shakespeare monologues or sonnets
Puzzle solving: plenty of puzzles to choose from
Game playing: learn and play chess or Go

you can't get smarter by reading. intelligence is genetic.

I would start with the articles published by the sigma intelligence association. Like this one:

Study maths. Mathematical problem solving is basically what IQ tests are measuring anyway.

China does have its parallels to the Renaissance, they just don't divide up their history into intellectual epochs the way the West does. The Tang and Song dynasties are viewed as golden ages of cultural activity though, so you can call them a 'Renaissance'.
>all the other asian races never contributed anything on science or human race
Have you actually read any of their literature or philosophy?

You came to the wrong board. A board full of pretenders who think reading antiquated ideas will give them insight into the modern world just so that they can brag to their non-existent social circle they read so and so. Half the retards here can't even agree what liberalism means in a 200 post thread about fukuyama that's been popping up every week since trump became president.

I missed the part where you answered his request smart guy. I must have missed it but I know you have a really good answer, because you are superior to everyone else here, you must be the guy that knows the answer. So I'm anxiously waiting for it

There's definitely an answer. I'm just warning him not to look for it in this pretentious platform. You seem to have a problem with that.

The threads here never seem to change. The /lit/-canon is depressingly small and anything outside it devolves into a mindless culture war.
