&gt; There was recently an article here that discussed why extremely academically gifted children rarely become grown-up geniuses and people who move their fields forward. They stated that it&#x27;s not because they are troubled, most of them are socially well-adjusted, but I can&#x27;t find that article now for the lie of me.<p>I didn&#x27;t see the article in question, but I&#x27;d put money on this being an excerpt from Adam Grant&#x27;s &quot;Originals&quot; as it was released in the past couple of weeks and this is a point made in the opening chapter.
