Intelligence - Ability To Learn From Experience

Intelligence Is A Complex Trait

Although Westerners focus on intelligence has gradually shifted from language skills to analytical skills
Today's society holds analytical skills in such high regard that some cite their ‘high I.Q.’ as an aspect to excite attention as some impressive estimation

Challenging a millenia-old notion that intelligence is considered 'a single kind of human capacity' does not necessarily win one friends among the intelligent
The threshold I.Q. for genius is around 125— it is not all that high - genius can be derived in more of drive, vision, creativity, and luck or opportunity

According to a recent paper, I.Q. is the best predictor of job performance.
But unsurprising given that ‘performance’ is defined in similar terms,  depending on such factor as compliance, motivation, and educational attainment

Intelligence may be more defined in terms of social skills and responsibilities
The fact is, to think in new ways we literally transform and improve our brains, and thus our mental faculties

What people need to take into account is that human intelligence is the mental ability to learn from experience, adapting to new situations, understand and handling abstract concepts, and use knowledge to manipulate their environment
For the most part, adaptation involves making a change in oneself with the environment
Effective adaptation draws upon a number of cognitive processes, such as perception, learning, memory, reasoning, and problem solving

The results suggest that the basic cognitive processes are the building blocks of intelligence
We formulate new neural pathways, make new synaptic connections, and veritably enhance the part of our brains which corresponds to what we are practicing

In 1983 an American developmental psychologist Howard Gardener described 9 types of intelligence
Naturalist (nature smart)
Musical (sound smart)
Logical-mathematical (number/reasoning smart)
Existential (life smart)
Interpersonal (people smart)
Bodily-kinesthetic (body smart)
Linguistic (word smart)
Intra-personal (self smart)
Spatial (picture smart)

There are many studies that also prove, with genetics aside, that the environment plays a significant role in a person’s intelligence, it has to do with childhood development, culture and especially in cases of people in lower classes, the weak minded, the ‘deviant’ who are not just disenfranchised, but can be easily manipulated or dominated

One very good example of the above concept was done by
Dr Bruce Lipton on his YouTube channel that he highlights in his video titled:
'This Is Why You Are Less Intelligent'
In short he describes; with the constant stress and uncertainty being pushed upon our society; the constant bombardment of negative news, meaningless entertainment or shameless people being put forward as our roll models

We are all becoming manipulated and dominated without even realizing what is happening to us - this is not by accident

Healthy people care about their healthy minds, understanding to keep their environment consistent in their expanding progress
