@ Usha, these are personality traits . As per the laws of genetics, traits( genes with specific qualities) are independent of each other with the exception of 'linkage' where two traits may be seen linked with each other. Don't know if it is proven to be linked but yes, many extraordinarily brilliant people do seem have a very disorganized behavioral patterns ..or maybe it is simply the fact that they are way beyond the levels and understandings of others !!

In fact we see many of the brilliant and exceptionally intelligent geniuses leading unhappy personal lives, probably because they channelise their intelligence in one particular direction only abd fail to use their common sense in dealing with day today matters.
