Wilson suggests that too-smart people tend to be lazy

There is some truth to this. Bright students often don't have to work that hard at getting good grades. Some kids who just knew all the answers without studying until high school or college never learned how to study. It isn't uncommon for them to have a really tough adjustment period when they suddenly do need to study.

Though maybe lazy is not the best word for it.
