things are always different than usual. I'm interested in psychology, and I didn't have any problems understanding Freud from the start. And what does my modesty have to do with it? I assess reality adequately and objectively. Yes, I'm smarter than many. So what?
understanding Freud from the start," which is objectively unverifiable (although, arguably, whether it's worth understanding him at all is also debatable). I'd like to know your criteria for evaluation, because I haven't encountered any generally accepted, precise methods for comparison (other than, say, comparing people to "idiots," etc.). And you just solved the situation.
