How do you become as brilliant as professor moriarty?

Answer 1

Practice deductive reasoning and make a habit of looking at the small, minor details. Also, pick up only trivia and skills that would be useful to you and your work. Everything else is unimportant and not worth keeping in mind. That would be a start. Most importantly, do not jump to conclusions before you have found all you need to know and weeded out everything irrelevant.

Answer:

In addition to the above and depending on hw much you want to be like Holmes there are other attributes you should consider.

Learn unusual skills

• disguise and acting to blend into crowds
• stick and cane fighting (Bartitsu)
• memorize vast amounts of trivial knowledge
• write tretises on arcane subjects (pipe tobacco ash etc.)

On the negative side:

• develop a cocaine habit
• be uncomfortable with women
• live in a messy apartment
• play violin badly
• smoke a Meerschaum pipe
• discharge your guns in the house
• treat your friends badly

These negative habits will not make you smart, like Holmes is, but they will make you seem like him to your friends.

Answer 2

Answer:

Sherlock Holmes' above average intellectual abilities have many sources. He was a polymath with abilities in many fields. Potential reasons for this include:

• Genetically, he and his brother Mycroft have demonstrated an impressive array of mental abilities. Little is known of his parents in this regard but we must assume he was born with a first class mind.
• He was well-educated.
• He cultivated proper intellectual habits of observation, study, analysis and investigation.
• He had formal training in many arts including Fencing and baritsu, the Japanese system of Wrestling.
• He studied arts such as violin playing, acting and disguise
• He applied his talents to real world problems, effectively exercising them.
