What are tricks to appear more intelligent

[kej3094]

I’ve had insecurities with appearing not the sharpest, not retarded but just not high iq. What tricks can I use to appear smarter than I am (preferably backed by studies) I think the main reason people think I’m slow is when they hang around me for long periods of time, I kinda just say about anything that comes to mind and sometimes I don’t think before I speak especially when I’m tired. That’s something I can know is a flaw so I will change it, but what else can I add to the mix.

I think it’s always been an insecurity that I just didn’t want to be aware of until now, like whenever someone would say “you are dumb” or something along those lines it would piss me off beyond measure. It’s caused by something I’m sure

Wear glasses. Stroke your chin a lot. Close your eyes when talking to people (actually that just makes you look like a prick). And most importantly, slow down. Slow your movements and speech. Don't talk fast.

Just say “maybe im wrong but..(insert opinion). When talking to normies about controversial topics. U want to have a mutual conversation, not a therapy session

i feel you OP, i either talk too much or talk too little

honestly this has a lot to do with voice. Your voice matters a lot for your tone and personality to others. Voicemaxx using the guides here and talk from your diaphram, that will also slow your speech which will make you seem more intelligent. Also talk loud. Louder than you think you should. you'll think you sound stupid when hearing yourself talk loud but to others they'll subconciously think you're more confident/assuring. And obviously choose your words wisely, don't say more thna necessary

Practice thinking before you speak

 

[JosephGarrot123]

wear a suit, glasses, be quiet

 

[CupOfCoffee]

Don't talk very much. And only speak when I have something valuable to say. And/or be witty

slow movements I good, but I’ve heard talking faster can make you seem more intelligent, and taking long pauses between talking, like if you are talking to someone else not always replying right after they talk, not sure
