When the word genius comes to mind I
think of how there have been so many geniuses that have lived throughout the
years. But when it comes to pin pointing one a true genius my mind begins to
crumple. Thinking of someone that is truly genius is very difficult. People
that may seem like they fit the genius profile end up slowly getting knocked
off the chart because they do not “qualify.” When I think of a genius I think of someone
that is extremely creative and is able to turn their creative ideas into something
more. Something more consists of helping out other people or improving their
way of life. One person that I truly think is a genius is Rob Dyrdek. When you
look at Rob you might think how is this guy a genius? Well first of all this young man is a professional
skateboarder, actor, entrepreneur, producer and reality TV star. At the young
age of 38, Rob is a very accomplished man with many skateboarding world records
and three of his own TV shows.
I believe that Rob
fits the genius profile for many reasons. First of all he obviously has to be extremely
creative if he is the stars in three of his own TV shows. How many people have
more than one TV show? I can’t think of any. Rob is also creative in what he
does as a person. Has anyone ever seen the show Rob Dyrdek’s Fantasy Factory?
In my opinion this has to be the most creative reality TV show on television. In this show Rob purchased a large factory in
which he and his team at Dyrdek Enterprise work. According to the show you would think that
they don’t really work but instead they find creative ways to have fun with in
the factory. For example, they build and indoor skate park, a foam pit, and a zip
line all in the factory. The show somehow never gets old because they always
have new ideas and things to do.
I know I said in
my definition that a genius has to turn their creative ideas into something more.
Rob also perfectly fits this genius trait. Rob incorporates creative ideas into
helping out his charity or fundraiser. Robs charity is called the Rob Dyrdek
Foundation. Rob goes around to underprivileged neighborhoods where he finds an
area to build a skate park for the underprivileged kids. In doing this Rob uses
his creative mindset to create unique skate parks for the kids. I truly believe
that Rob is a creative genius and I am excited to see what he does in the
future.
