Eat cat poo
You mean cow poo?
Sungazing, every day after dawn and before sunset
Have the thought "I am increasing my IQ" and wait for the feeling you get, then concentrate on the feeling.
Bad advice
Have better genes next time you are born
That would require living a virtuous life of service to others. Frick that, I'd rather be a dumb football player in my next life.

You can only unlock that after being a little girl anally raped from 8 to 18.
why swap the reward and work like that
I’ve met high IQ Chinese mathematicians who legit worshiped Mao as a saviour god, or believed that Chinese traditional medicine actually works. They were also socially moronic.
I’m convinced that a high brain capacity =|= critical thinking capability. If you can’t be smarter, be wiser. It’s that simple.
Maybe they knew traditional medicine is bunk and Mao was just a moronic guy but they professed those beliefs for aesthetic reasons.
Ben Carson is regarded as being one of the best pediatric brain surgeons of his day but he also believes the pyramids of Egypt were build as grain silos.
Brain surgery is more about having a steady hand than a sharp intellect. One of the greatest con jobs ever pulled off was medical doctors convincing everyone that what they do is intellectual labour.
>was medical doctors convincing everyone that what they do is intellectual labour.
If this was true then brain surgeons could be trained on a very short time. This was true of chinese sterilization technicians, whom were trained to only do tube ligation. They had teams whom would kidnap village women, roll them in a carpet and load them on a truck. They would be carried by the dozens to a shack where surgeries got done in under 20 minutes.

For school or for fun
For fun. School and university was trivial.
>university was trivial
How does it feel to be super smart?
I'm not super smart. Maybe above average. There's just too many brainlets in university forcing the professors to make exams and lectures easier.
You can't increase your IQ, you can only bring it back to baseline when things like depression, brain fog, etc. cause mild impairment. If you were a moron who hasn't been able to do math since you were a child, you'll never make it.

Redpill me on how to get rid of brain fog
You fart, clap and then giggle.
Try cutting down on grains you might have an intolerance like I did. Also making sure you are getting enough nutrients through logging a few typical days on something like chronometer. High species number probiotic(s) with lots of fiber. Omega 3 (fish oil, ground flax, &/or algae oil). Maybe try something like NALT. Exercise. Sleep enough. Involve yourself in things that use your brain in different ways daily (reading research, studying, and making things with your hands.)
1. Get your net carbs below 20 grams per day.
2. Drink 0.75 gallons of water per day.
3. Sleep in a pitch black, silent room and sleep until you wake up naturally (i.e. don't use an alarm clock).
4. Get 30 minutes of sunlight per day.
5. Walk 2 miles per day, and do more strenuous exercise two or three times per week.

You just need a tutor. I explained calculus to a friend and he got good grades after failing the same test at least 5 times in a row.
You just need someone to explain the concepts "like you are 5" and to offer plenty of examples.
Modern math books have zero pedagogical value, they aim to be as dry and minimalistic as they can be, due to the cultural influence of Bourbaki, and often fail by writing text that is technically incorrect
I agree with your assessment on math textbooks but I did t know there was a historical reason why they were so shitty
Who is bourbaki?
both of you are pretentious undergrads who should get back to studying asap. Bourbaki's influence on math books is the definition of elementary terms like surjective, injective, bijective, and a more apt style (numbering theorems, definitions, propositions, etc., as opposed to only numbering paragraphs). Their hatred for logic, pretending Gödel never existed and still using Hilbert's outdated epsilon calculus, made their treatment rather shit.
Bourbaki's influence is certainly wider than that, but yes, it doesn't really apply to lower-level (e.g. undergrad) textbooks. (The set theory book, by the way, is usually considered Bourbaki's worst even by admirers of Bourbaki.)
>raise IQ
it's possible, but nobody wants to put in work to do it
Elaborate
>my IQ is too low to learn math
is the same as
>I am too weak to do a push-up
Fat, lazy, unathletic, asthma, any excuse, you can catch up to the average.
Doing more consistently with the right stuff in enough time investment can be above average, or great.
But most fat people stay fat, most fit people are not power lifters or marathon runners, most people are not good at math.
The reason you're having trouble with math is probably because you're thinking of math as memorizing a series of actions you perform with the symbols on your paper, instead of seeing it as the symbolic expression of simple, easy-to-understand logic.
I fricking hate math. Everything that is hard to do sucks. I especially hate intelligent people.
intelligent people don't even think about you. rent free
is that supposed to be helpful mr. intelligent?
dont let a stupid concept like iq stop you from doing whatever you wanna do, advanced maths takes a shit ton of deliberate practice but you'll get used to it. i'd recommend reading "talent is overrated" by geoffrey colvin
How low? A midwit IQ is plenty enough to become a professional mathematician. Only a tiny % of professional mathematicians actually do anything requiring an IQ of 160+.
