Are intelligent, though may not have had top grades.
Who doesn't want to consider themselves intelligent?
I beg to differ, of all the people I know, friends or collegues, only a small percentage perceive themselves as having above an average intellegence.
Besides, being intellegent, and wanting to be intellegent are two different things. Yes - wouldn't everyone want to consider themselves intellegent,
but that doesnt mean they believe it true of themselves?
Are very creative and enjoy making things.
I colored and finger painted and liked to sculpt and make things with macaroni when I was a kid. Does that count?
I think they mean creative in general - as an adult included.
Always need to know WHY, especially why they are being asked to do something.
Name me one child that doesn't ask "Why" when you either tell them to do something or tell them "No!"
Again.....as an adult. Ever meet an adult whos very annoying, cause they just wont accept things like the rest of them - they need reasoning and
explanation? Thats an indigo type.
Had disgust and perhaps loathing for much of the required and repetitious work in school.
Again, name me one child that isn't Manic or Obsessive Compulsive that enjoys doing school work?
True.
Were rebellious in school in that they refused to do homework and rejected authority of teachers, OR seriously wanted to rebel, but didn't DARE,
usually due to parental pressure.
Teenagers + Elevated Hormones = Rebellion
True.
May have experienced early existential depression and feelings of helplessness. These may have ranged from sadness to utter despair. Suicidal feelings
while still in high school or younger are not uncommon in the Indigo Adult.
Teenagers + Elevated Hormones + No Sex = Depression/Thoughts of Suicide
Cmon - its not common for all teeneagers to feel suicidal.
Have difficulty in service-oriented jobs. Indigos resist authority and caste system of employment.
Tell me how many times you can ask "Would you like Fries with that? before you began to hate your job and your boss?
By resist, its meant that they will RESIST come hell or high water, they would rather be jobless and broke, and eating out of a dustbin.....THAT kind
of resistance. Not a disliking...a RESISTANCE.
Prefer leadership positions or working alone to team positions.
You don't have to be a Type A Personality to like to be the one in control, or do it your way on your own. If given the choice of working with others
and having to compromise, or being the one making the choices, I think 99.9% of people would chose the later.
True - there a many different 'types' that like leadership positions. But this is being pointed out as ALSO one of the indigo's quality's. It
doesnt mean that every leader you see is an indigo. Rather this is a probable characteristic of an indigo.
Have deep empathy for others, yet an intolerance of stupidity.
Even the stupid hate stupid people...and every person on this planet with the exclusion of the rare few that are Sociopathic have human empathy. It's
called Compassion and it is part of the human condition.
True, yet I have met a great many that have no compassion, and can only converse with stupid people. So this is not true of al people. Sadly not even
the majority.
May be extremely emotionally sensitive including crying at the drop of a hat (no shielding) Or may be the opposite and show no expression of emotion
(full shielding).
You may have dark hair or light hair. You may feel hot and sometimes you may feel cold. You may sometimes feel hungry or you may be the opposite and
not feel hungry at all. Come on!
These are two extreme personality types refered to here. You saying that on this planet there are only these two types. Extremely sensitive, or
extremely cold? Nothing in between?
