Ever seen such people who are too stupid to even know how stupid they are...???People who believe they are more competent than they actually are...?Over confident unskilled people who are reluctant to accept their low ability...?(Go through Donald Trump's twitter account for a better understanding)

We definitely have such people around us,who think they are the best at a given task,the dangerous kind of idiots but we need to know that's not their fault,unfortunately they are suffering from illusory superiority-a syndrome called Dunning Kruger Effect,named after David Dunning and Justin Kruger who studied the syndrome.

Sort:  

I always liked Bukowski's take on the subject: "The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts, while the stupid ones are full of confidence." But maybe I shouldn't like it, since I'm neither super-intelligent nor super-confident.

And the result is wise people stay quiet while the dimwits take charge of the world.
Should not like this..??hmm then you would definitely like the next post about Imposter syndrome,you might be suffering from that :p

And welcome, by the way, I hadn't realized that was your first post. You should do the obligatory "introduce yourself" post. They're annoying, but since you're photogenic, it should score you bonus points inside the community.

Thank you,hmm will surely do it..
