I was a "gifted child" then went to university and turns out I was not really that special lol. Grade fetishism in school leads to fuckers like me thinking they are hot shit when we're pretty mediocre. I even hit a hard wall with math, which was the subject I thought I was a genius in.

That said, I never had delusions about becoming something great, I always disliked responsibility and preferred to chill, and I kinda got there in the end
