Sure, take as long as you need. When you can figure out how to create at least a singled celled organism, maybe you can start to compare your intelligence to the dumb, natural processes of nature. Before then, I think we can at least be humble to the idea that there are - maybe "dumb, natural" - forces much smarter than us in the universe.
