Thinking better with LOA

Over at the Limiting Beliefs thread, the Simplifier talks about neuroplasticity;
On the Black Swan thread, kazoo talks about creative genius and madness.

Here I'd like to ask: How can we mould genius? Can genius be worked up to, or is it "inborn"? I'd say it's always hard work + natural talent, but is it ever possible to "become" a genius?

On the practical, theoretical, and spiritual levels, how is genius conceived?

What makes a genius a genius?

And from an LOA perspective, how do we attract a genius level of being?

"Geniuses think productively, not reproductively. When confronted with a problem, they ask "How many different ways can I look at it?", "How can I rethink the way I see it?", and "How many different ways can I solve it?" instead of "What have I been taught by someone else on how to solve this?" They tend to come up with many different responses, some of which are unconventional and possibly unique."
