How do I improve my ability at thinking fast?

Thoughts don't come instantly, they build up over a few dozen seconds.

This means that I am always way too slow to contribute to conversations.

What do?

It's a god- given Gift.
Only the blessed can think fast and win a conversation.

You should surrender to the true master Race: the fast thinkers

You might actually be retarded (no joke), or at least sub-90 IQ territory. Remember, the colloquialism for 'retard' is 'slow' for a reason.

Been taking comedy improv classes that cater to knowing how to think fast and on your feet.

Usually, you base it on whatever was already going through mind at the time, or fall back on thoughts you already have on a regular basis. And either work from there, or just practise whatever thought processes you already have as if you were trying to practise a musical instrument.

Being emotionally invested in the conversation helps.

I find that I react very slowly to conversations that are boring to me or not in my field of interests, but the second a conversation gets brought up that strikes my interest, it makes me happy and I start firing off responses like a machinegun.

I find that whenever my depression hits me and I become apathetic that my ability to hold a conversations becomes way worse and slows down to a crawl, or I just don't talk at all.

A lot of it ties into emotion.

I used to get 25% extra time on exams because I read, write and process slowly.

But I am a straight A student in all of STEM.

>or at least sub-90 IQ territory
I get flawless answers on spacial manipulation, puzzles and patterns in IQ tests, but if you ask me about word association or to solve an anagram I am worse than useless

This makes me feel a little better. I can talk about STEM or computing with people all day.
However no one that I know has any interest in anything other than current events.

You shouldn't be "thinking" during conversation. Do you think normies think during 90% of their conversations? No, they just say whatever. They let instinct take over.
>>
JUST
FUCKING
DO IT

"Hey anon, how do I learn coding?"

"Yo anon, how do I get better at maths?"

"Anon, how can I become a master cup stacker?"

YOU JUST FUCKING DO IT.

THAT'S LITERALLY IT.

IF YOU "CAN'T" DO IT YOU TRY DOING IT UNTIL YOU CAN, THEN YOU DO IT SOME MORE.

If you're unwilling to follow this advice, if pride or shame stops you from engaging in practice and learning, you simply do not want it enough. That's fine as long as you acknowledge that and either change something or move on.
>>
>>34208690
I'm a fucking genius at everything because I follow advice and don't make excuses.
>>
>>34208116
Prepare ideas outside of conversation when you're doing other stuff like mowing the lawn. People thought formulate ideas long before they talk about them and then just bring them up to confirm their views. Just think of something then think of the possible rebuttals.
