OK for certain reasons higher consciousness is linked with blundering and weaker social ability, yes yes.
The real question for me is, if you get to a high enough point, can you possibly overcome these weaknesses? If you are still retaining your strength of mind, can you have the best of both worlds? I already have a firm knowledge in every type of science, a few of the arts, politics, psychology, a pretty complete understanding of philosophy and religion, etc, so this is what I'm experimenting with now.
I cannot say if it will work. Certainly it will be difficult, as most people learn a set of social skills at a young age and stick with that. I've been studying human social interactions lately. My goal is to be able to perfectly emulate any social persona I want to at will. It requires a certain voluntary insanity to even embark on this journey, which I have accepted now.
