Intelligence types and its impact on relationships & human life as a Whole
This article is far-far beyond the scope of IQ & EQ.
Here we are considering all those intelligences that have the most profound influence in our almost all the important aspects of life.
The difference between intelligence & intellect
An intellectual is the one who is book-wise, theoretical, impractical & conceptually solid.
Intelligence on other hand is practical, common-sensical & sub-conscious tool to identify and choose the best option.
Intelligence is the ability we have, to gauge, analyze, prepare & respond in the most appropriate manner to gain the best advantage as your capability in that respective area.
Most of us believe that high levels of intelligence are more the result of nature, rather than nurture. But that's just not the case as you find people who had the odds stacked against them and went on to do brilliant things.
Intelligence is developed through our life experiences & can be developed by practice, but it is a sub-conscious & inherent trait.
People aren't born smart. When people learn how to work with what they've got and with scarce resources, overwhelming limitations - They become smarter.
We will be using intelligence, smart or smartness, interchangeably as both are same & both are internal quality
