15 Signs Of a HIGHLY EDUCATED Individual: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uJM4349tVOc.html Have you downloaded the Alux App yet? alux.com/app The ALUX App is Officially Here! | Alux Keynote 2022: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bd4uVm2AYuY.html
This has nothing to do with education. These are signs of low emotional intelligence, and high narcissism. I've known plenty of educated people with these traits, and plenty of comparatively uneducated people who are not like this at all. Lack of education is not the reason for it, perhaps a lack of solid parenting, poor socialization, and insecurity. I knew a highly educated man with almost all of these traits. He was the most insecure person I'd ever dealt with, very likely due to childhood verbal abuse. He became highly narcissistic in behavior as a way to cope with that insecurity.
I really appreciated your answer. In the end, we all deal with shortcomings and defects of character. For the religious, I guess this is a good touchstone - 'the last person they said was perfect they nailed on a cross'. Now I am not religious, but I really appreciate this sentiment! 🌵💗
It is integrity, authenticity and innate intelligence I think they are talking about. In a way, 'street smarts'. I don't think it is JUST street smarts they are on about, but you get my drift.
I think the biggest thing to note is that intelligence and education are not the same thing. I know people with Master's degrees and PhD's who have no common sense (one thought a cat literally had 9 lives, and another can't spell simple words). And I know high school dropouts who built businesses and became wealthy, who are highly knowledgeable in their respective fields.
Yep, it's all faff. Age and position has a lot to do with it, too. The older I get, the less I care what others think. That certainly doesn't make me less "educated." This whole video oozes with psudeo-intellectual babble.
@@MyBelch people who have been intelligent all their life, it just "is". There's no need to prove how smart or educated you are. Like on the other comment about the use of profanity making people seem less intelligent or less educated, that is spread by pseudo intellectuals as well. People who have ALWAYS been at the top of the intellectual food chain really don't care. It's the posers who care lol.
Wow! U & I have had some of the same experiences. I know some Docs with no common sense & are actually unhealthy because they don't eat healthy or exercise!!!
@@RFernandez18 depends on how you get the money and whether you can keep it and make it work for you. "A fool and his money are soon parted." Intelligence doesn't matter for someone who inherited money, or for athletes and entertainers. But for a person to build a successful business from scratch after being born into poverty, raised on welfare by drug addicted parents, yeah that takes intelligence.
Education in this day and age is more akin to indoctrination.. The educate is gone.. Replaced with virtue signaling, outrage, and selective "science" based on popularity and not facts...
When you become middle-aged, like a lot of us, you will realize that this video is all about education. The education of life. And if you are middle- aged and feel this way, you should seriously take some tips from this video.
A few things I noticed 1. Blaming others for their situation and not taking any action to improve. 2. Surround themselves with people who lack motivation. 3. Look for others to enhance their financial lives. 4. Trying to fit in instead of standing out. 5. Expecting someone to make them happy instead of self-happiness.
My Dad had a GED but did the ad hoc job of an electrical engineer one month on and one month off for a year in the North Sea. He could memorize blueprints, graphs, you name it. Three electrical engineers with Master's were flown back to Norway from the oil platform. No competency. Dad treated everybody with kindness and respect without expecting anything. Dad's greatest pride was that all four kids turned out quite successful. The hugh number of people at his funeral did not surprise me.
I think you’re confusing “formal” education w/education. Your father clearly had an outstanding practical aptitude-what I’d call a gift-for many things. Studies have shown such giftedness is genetic. Lucky you to come from such a remarkable family.
@@laughlight1 Thanks for your well stated comments. Dad got my biological Mom pregnant whilst he was in High School. He dropped out and got a job as an oil seismologist trainee starting at the bottom such as drilling holes and emplacing dynamite, etc. Dad got his last job at Los Alamos labs in NM as a supervisor of over 100 contractors. The job required a BS and he beat out X amount of applicants. Zero college for Dad.
@@joeavent5554 Cool story!! My grandfather got pulled out of school in the 4th grade to help with the family farm, joined the navy at 16 where he was given an aptitude test, assigned to the USS Edwards Destroyer and given the job that required being able to do extremely technical calculations in your head in seconds to determine targeting positions, aka he was the WWII era gunners mate targeting computer. He then went to Boeing where he worked his way up to the 3rd highest position in the company, as head of all of engineering. He took classes at Boeing to further his knowledge, because that's what smart people do, but he was born incredibly gifted at math and science. His brother with the same education, spoke 6 languages, was a WWII US spy, military attache, was a Potsdam Liaisons for 30 years, who later worked at the pentagon teaching spies, briefing intelligence and the military, and building spy gadgets.
Absolutely correct. Especially in this day and age where online degrees are tossed around dime a dozen without ANY SERIOUS INTELLECTUAL/SCHOLARLY effort on part on the student. Just put your money, do the bare minimum amount of work and obtain a degree.
Maybe that's ignorant people more than "poorly educated." I've known very learned people who aren't "educated," at least in terms of college degrees, and there are "educated" people who can check all these boxes.
Education in this sense, has nothing to do with degrees. That’s why degrees were never mentioned. Degrees are merely credentials. They are requirements for certain jobs.
Wrongly Educated is my entry. Yes, ignorance can be the absence of knowledge. Poorly educated is inadequate knowledge. Wrongly educated though is educating in the opposite or wrong way, which is the hardest situation of the three because you're gonna need to UNLEARN all the wrong information from your system first before you can start AGAIN on the right path to take, no shortcuts, no hacks just straight withdrawal and complete 180° turn around.
I think of a poor education as a tragic misfortune a person suffers, not an innate character flaw. Most of these "signs" describe innate character flaws, suggesting that everyone with a poor education was simply dumb and couldn't get far in school. I've known smart people who did well in life in spite of outside circumstances that kept them from completing their education.
I disagree with the statement that poorly educated people undermine their abilities. The opposite is actually true. Those are the people who overestimate their abilities because they think so highly of themselves. It is the educated people who undermine their abilities because they constantly think that they could do better.
Good point...and it also worth noting that a lot of folks think that they can't or don't know if they can. More often than not due to no exposure to specific training and or education.
This video lacks references for their conclusions, conflates different types of intelligence and only mentions emotional intelligence. In fact, these things may not even have to do with emotional intelligence, but rather emotional stability. And is very clickbaity. I admit. We fell for clickbait.
"#6 refuse to become better" is a HUGE RED FLAG for all of life's situations. People will never admit to this, so you need to develop the skill of witnessing this in others to determine if they really do want to become better, or do they only want to appear as if they are trying to be better with out actually taking on the necessary steps and actions to become better.
For sure, I hated school, but school is there to give you the basics so you can become better and educate yourself for the rest of your life. I meet way too many people who will not take a class, listen to a lecture or even read a book.

"15 signs of the poorly self aware and need therapy" I am not sure "education" is the determining factor here. I believe there are highly educated people out there with all these traits.
I love that one of the elements of this video is "stupid people judge others very harshly", only for this entire video to be judging others very harshly. There's some irony here but Im too stupid to find it.
Not sure is “poorly educated” is the correct title. Seems like a mixture of many things. Character, self-awareness, ambition (or lack of) to name a few. All which affect “educated” people too.
Day 5: Inputs over Outcome After staying on this journey it became swiftly evident how much sluggishness and factors that caused me to essentially keep my self down. I haven’t started my tasks yet, but i can say I am more mindful and other things around that highlights, the little things could lead to drastic change
“Never look down on others.” It’s amazing what happens when people expect you to look down on them and you don’t. I was a physician and many years ago went on a field trip with my then-wife (a special education teacher in a bad New York City neighborhood) and her class and several other classes. I treated these children with respect and got along well with everyone, thinking nothing unusual. Later, I learned that teachers marveled at my ability to get along with them and to, with no threats at all, keep order.
same, my dad..... elderly, doing my part to keep him, safe, clean, healthy but oh man the mood swings. cried all day monday, now waiting on home health care... someone trained to give meds, enforce showers, and won't get verbally abused. 🙏🏼
One of the most importanted things I've heard, learned and understood more and more in the past few years is this saying: stupid people don't know they're dumb. They think they're smart, and on the other hand smart people know there is still and always much to learn. Basically admit they're dumb. I guess it's about being humble? I'm sure some of you have heard this too in one video or another and can explain it better than me.
This would depend on how you define what educated is. See google defines "educated" as having a good education and webster just defines it as having education. Education is where this would differ. Education is defined as a systematic instruction one receives or an enlightened experience. Some people can have both or none but most of us would relate with one over the other. There are plenty of people with high degrees who can check off every one of these items. There are also people with nothing more than a high school diploma that are more well informed than those that went to college. The way i see is that this video is just a wild generalization and no one should be put in a box as people tend to surprise you with their knowledge more often than not.
One think I did learn from years in academia is that having a PhD does not mean a person is not poorly trained and badly educated. Most people I encountered had knowledge metaphorically a foot wide and a mile deep - super specialized but otherwise ignorant.
Whoever is reading this comment, I wish that whatever you’re going through gets better and whatever you’re battling with makes your situation better as you’re continuing to be a better person each day. I have faith that you’ll turn out great as your circumstances will improve. Be sure that nothing is permanent. Have a fantastic day! You got this! 🤗💪🏼❤😍🥰
A coworker I used to have described his grown children in interesting terms: his son would be satisfied to lie on a beach all day, while his daughter essentially wishes she could 'clone herself' so each individual version could be learning something different because she's interested in so many things. I can relate to the daughter.
I dated a lady who has a PHD, who fit some of these signs. Exactly why, just because you went to college or got some paper/title..... dont mean shiiiiiit
I think it's good to be a little self-centered, focusing on yourself your problems and not being distracted by other people's problems you can't change can be a good thing.
I guess the principle of these - very general and more entertaining than educational - videos is, that the boxes you check the more critical it gets. A highly educated narcissist for example does not know other anything else besides his ego but would also be highly educated. It's also a choice of philosophy.
The key point here is a *little*. It's okay to be self centred in that you have self awareness, a desire to introspect and improve. This has to be combined with humility
Years ago I discovered that people who are hard to please are the most critical people ever. It’s not that they have high standards or any kind of good standards; they enjoy lording it over people. A critical, hard to please individual doesn’t appreciate the hard work of others; they also have poor manners. They have to learn to say thank you. Talk about ignorance.
One way to tell if someone is poorly educated, is to examine the people who watch this fluff on RU-vid to make themselves feel superior and judge others passively in their free time. I had this pop up on my Google feed on my phone for some reason. I genuinely want to know the thought process of those watching this with actual intent to watch. Can someone share for curiosity? What is the purpose of this kind of content? Who's its target audience? What do they acquire from viewing this kind of video?
There's a thin line between genius and idiot. Had a neighbor who was considered an idiot, he was something else, not emotionally stable or socially inclined. He walked everywhere and I'd pick him up and take him wherever he wanted to go. But he was genius in math. A high school teacher had a math problem he couldn't work and he got Afton to do it.
Isn’t this video contradicting itself by judging peoples intelligence based on their personal opinions of how an intelligent people should and should not act. Socrates loved to argue, did that make him emotionally unintelligent because arguing and proving someone else wrong can hurt the other persons feelings. Intelligence is in the eye of the beholder, a persons actions can be seen as intelligent or unintelligent based on how you frame it. We see this is in the media all the time, dumb people are made to look smart and smart people are made to look dumb depending on what political advantage comes from doing so
Socrates loved to Debate, not argue. A debate is two people who have a point to get across. A argument is two people verbally attacking each other with insults. There's a difference.
@@narcissisticcapitalist1842 Hence, it's not a argument. That's why it has the word debate. I was on the debate team in school...and you couldn't personally attack someone, make fun of them. You had to stick to the topic of the debate. TBH America really doesn't cater to intelligent people. Look at entertainment. Especially network television. I don't know anyone intelligent that acts like Homer Simpson or Peter Griffin. IRL they would be special needs adults.
@@c.antoniojohnson7114 A country heavily relies on the majority of their citizens to be stupid and kept in the dark in order to function properly. Smart people are hard to control and are likely to rebel. Uneducated people are the lifeblood of the economy. Educated people can easily manipulate uneducated people to be their pawns in the fight for power. I go on for a days with this topic but who cares. Having these views or opinions does nothing to help me accomplish my grand ambitions in life, they are only a reminder to myself not allow myself to be like the majority of the world who aimlessly sail thru life without a compass, getting pushed in one direction to the next, depending on the waves to be generous to them, hoping that someday these waves will land them on a paradise island if they don’t try to go against them
Summary Here 👇 1:They are very Judgemental 😩 2:They talk first and Think Later😲 3:They don't form their own Opinions 🤔 4:They are self centered 😠 5:They are easily influenced by others 🤷🏾♂️
These traits describe a narcissist. And a lot of narcissist know what they are doing when they don't consider your feelings talk about themselves don't improve as a person they don't want to.
Or worse, their apologies aren't sincere and are simply about manipulating other people and situations. An apology has to be heartfelt, you have to be specific about what you are apologising for and insist that whatever you did will not happen again.
There is a term out there called an " Educated Fool " ; this basically means that a person who is ignorant has a high education or skill level. Sort of the Big fish in a little pond type metaphor.
Yes, I've met this person and they're are the worst of both worlds. Educated enough to think they know more than most but not enough self awareness to realise where they're lacking.
One of the top signs of a poorly educated person is poor language skills. The play/movie, “Pygmalion” / “My Fair Lady” is a brilliant example. The alteration of accent by the focal character instantly catapults her from the lowest class and least educated to high society. Within seconds of communicating with an individual, their status in the social hierarchy is made apparent. It is not just accent that reveals education, but grammar and word usage as well. A highly educated person rarely utilizes curse words, but instead selects from a wide-range of mastered vocabulary to express their ideas. This is where ALUX writers could work to improve their excellent videos, by avoiding vulgarities. The vast majority of viewers are not aware of this faux pas, however higher-class or more educated viewers are.
Actually, intelligent people curse MORE. There have been studies on this phenomenon. But then again, you did say "educated" and we all know that education level is not a true measure of intelligence.
Good point. That's why Trump, despite his demonstrated command of many areas of business and his ability to quickly come up to speed on a variety of policy topics, comes across as poorly educated. His vocabulary hasn't really progressed beyond the Weekly Reader level (those of a certain age will remember the WR).
There was a study by a liberal arts college in New England which indicated that people with higher vocabularies do, in fact, know more crass words. However, this does not indicate these people curse more, just that their vocabulary is larger in all areas.
Seems to be more about self-centeredness and sometimes narcissism . maybe some of the judgmentalness is usually from people who live in their own little world or were sheltered. I'm sure we all know or have come across highly educated people have master's degrees or phds they think their opinion only matters.
I don't think these characteristics are necessarily those of a poorly educated person, I think they have a lot more to do with chronic trauma suffered in childhood.
I believe the person who made this video is unaware of the physiological effect of a poor past, upbringing, society, influence, etc. Humans, in general, are very intelligent spices regardless of education or successes in life.
Is it possible for you guys to make your videos a hair louder? I struggle to hear your videos as soon as the air conditioning kicks on. Thanks for the content!
This video is spot on! I noticed these differences between educated and non-educated individuals when I was in my 20s. Especially taking others ideas and opinions as their own.
Daaang💔 I don't think so because you cared enough & took the time to watch this video. On top of the fact that you are now self aware 🙌😉 None of us are perfect 🥲
#1 Judgmental and constructive criticism is not the same thing... one is constructive and helps a lot, suggestions for improvement at the right time... the other is someone who is just negative no matter what but offers no ideas, help, or opinions on how to do it or make it better.
Also, this idea precludes the fact that some people's choices NEED to be judged. The simple fact of the matter is that most people don't want to be judged, because they don't want to be held accountable. There ARE good behaviors and choices, and bad ones. Perhaps a present difficulty with our society, et al. is that many people feel not only should their actions NOT be judged, but rather others should condone them.
@@scott2115 I think you're right specially if their actions might have consequences on you, or they simply affect you. So criticism is needed, even if dong it makes it not wanted.
@@scott2115 Yea I have an ex "friend" who constantly posted on FB talking about not wanting to be judged , and how she supposedly "didn't think it was right to judge others" (only problem is that's all she ever did) . It gets extremely tiring to hear it. We all judge others to a certain degree, and if you go around fucking your entire life up and act like you wonder why it's all going wrong, those aroind you SHOULD be judging you.
The irony of the subject of this video being the ‘Poorly Educated’, and using a capital letter on the ‘Of’. This should be ‘of’. I accept cheques for payment 🙂 You’re welcome.
I know many people with several degrees with many of these traits.And most of us have some of these qualities from time to time in life.Self awareness is most important i believe, that way you can change and modify to improve.
#16 They post videos listing negative personality traits and claim that these characteristics are the result of being poorly educated while presenting no evidence tying the misplaced causation together. Most likely doing so as an attempt to appear highly educated, but failing miserably
I don't think this had anything to do with a level of a person's education and the title should instead read " A person's level of self awareness" as this is truly the heart of this video. Highly educated people are not always self aware.
Not sure I agree with this video, being highly educated doesn't mean you won't have these traits. I known many well educated people who are very arrogant and talking bad about others. This video is kinda rubbish sorry to say.
Some of these are absolutely bs for example a person that has ADHD will most likely always act or speak before they think. I can agree on some of these but you should rethink some of these as people with a disability like ADHD or autism can have some of these personalities but are still if not more educated than others.
All we need is more RU-vid educated people passing judgment on the rest of the world. I know people, great people, that have very little education. It's just not that important to everyone. Being decent is.
1:04 "but here's the thing, people with unusually high standards are different from overly critical individuals." 1:12 "but here's the thing, people with unusually high standards are different from overly critical individuals." Why she say it twice? 🤔
Poorly educated people don’t acknowledge anyone else’s viewpoint! I’ve noticed in this comment section and on other videos that people respond to someone else’s comment but DON’T bother to give the comment they are responding to a thumbs-up (acknowledgement)
@@sharonsmalls6846 We also see in America, the richly educated with an ego of all these traits explained in the video. Many take pride in it too, and the big difference is that they are quite abt it. I wouldn't trust none of these ppl, so just don't point out one type and act like the other one doesn't exist.
@@mazezace I can not follow your train of thought. What is the richly educated? I have never heard that terminology, so I Googled it, and nothing was presented. I am clueless about what you have posted, and what you're talking about. Have a great day.
Since education is in schools and school-like environments, the qualities discussed here do not reflect on education that well. It's more of ignorance than poor education.
Well done , this is a brilliant piece here and dovetails with a lot of similar thoughts and observations i have been pondering lately . However these are the 15 SIGNS of insecurity , low emotional intelligence, self absorption and a lack of self awareness etc. Poorly educated has very little to do with it . There are plenty of people who punch above their weight by making the right decisions more often than not through having self awareness and a thirst to learn and improve . Then there are academically bright , educated adults with degrees who have the emotional intelligence of early teens . They inadvertently get in the way of themselves and make life harder than it needs to be . In my humble opinion , self awareness is the touchstone that people need to reach in order to propel themselves forward , onward and upward . Self awareness coupled with being on top of things in an organisational sense are 2 very strong traits to give one thrust . Obviously acting on a dream/ vision or a plan can act as a magnet to pull you forward as well. It seems to me that your greatest Ally in this life and your biggest Adversary are one and the same - yourself . Recognise both .
I actually find that the most egotistical/self centred people tend to be highly educated. They usually have a overly high opinion about themselves and dissmiss other people (Like this video is doing about the uneducated) and ideas after a brief inspection.
I generally find it is the other way round, and if you try to explain a misunderstood concept the person who understands it the least will talk slowly and explain it incorrectly again, because you obviously don't understand. For example, 1 in 4 chance of winning does not literally mean that every fourth ticket wins a prize, so you need to buy 4 in order to win.
@@maryelizabethord7915 Thanks for the reply. Seems we have had different experiences on the matter, but hopefully we can both agree making blanket statements about this topic and pidgeonholing a whole demographic as this video does is not particularly helpful, as there are too many things to take into consideration.
@@Danger8255 Yes, it is only clickbait after all, and if someone is a rude opinionated prat there is very little one can do to change their behaviour as they won't see it as a fault of character or problematic to others. From my own point of view though, I had a career change from working with largely professionals to mostly unqualified colleagues. The former were generally open minded, flexible and recognised that learning and experience is an ongoing process, the latter, not so much!
Lets note that this refers to 'poorly educated individual ' and not 'uneducated persons'. Poorly educated in a sense of exposure to the real world and secular activities.
Add: 16. Needs constant validation 17. Never takes responsibility for themselves or actions 18. Plays the victim 19. Insulting 20.Perceives feedback as criticism, and disregards others opinions.
I think all of this has more to do with maturity and self-awareness and growth than it does with education. You see these behaviors manifest with very highly educated people all of the time.
I once worked with a highly educated individual (PhD) who refused to put in much effort in his job. His favorite thing to say was, "They don't pay me enough to do this." He drifted from one job to another and really never was successful in anything, because he felt he was always underappreciated. He never seemed to figure out that you work up to the level you feel you need to be by working hard. He expected to start at the top because he perceived himself as always the smartest person in the room. And if his manager had the audacity to correct his work, he would sulk all day and be uncooperative. It's hard to work with someone like this because everyone else has to pick up the slack. And gets resentful.
I think this video is much bigger than RU-vid comments section. But great entertainment to see comments after spending 15 mins on the video and still displaying some of the very points that were discussed. Lol. Internet at it's finest! Great video BTW! 👍🏼
Great info and video, thanks. Actually quite valuable information, almost shared it with a friend whom I thought might benefit, but refrained because the title of the video and themed keywords: "Poorly Educated" might imply the wrong thing, could offend, assumptions might be made, etc.,.lol. But either way, thank you again. : )
P.s. for example I wanted to share this video with my best friend.. but I know that part of my motivation/intention might be to make myself feel "right" and them feel "wrong"... hope that makes sense to someone, lol.
@lex W Let's call it out for what it is... Ignorance and prejudice. To be liked/respected/admired by the makers of this vlog, you must be a cashed-up social climber who wears Armani to be a valid human being.
It's time to take turn around and broke any connections with people which have low eq, look down on others, don't take responsibility for their errors and obstacles, blame others, can't admit their fault. Thank you for your clear clarification about poor educated person. I reveal that not all people deserve to be in my close circle. I'd like developing my skills without being interrupted by person with low self-esteem.
always strive to make yourself better, no matter what...surround yourself with people striving to be better and follow their lead....mediocrity is a choice....
All this is me, I am seriously Poorly Educated, especially that part whereby - " others influence you " girls influence me, I follow their direction. It has touched me, I will change for better - my new year revolution from October
