We humans were created above all other species on Earth and intelligence is what makes us more superior that them. I always believe that intelligence is living inside our head and that’s what makes us survive all the odds and threats. No man is dumb. It is just that we all have different kinds of intelligence which we can use in various situations and circumstances.

In school setting, students with high IQ (Intelligence quotient) are likely to excel in school and so they are regarded highly because of their academic success. But it doesn’t mean that those who didn’t make it on top of the class are dumb or stupid. They just have very specific intelligence and talents that they are really good at. It may not be in academic but I am sure that it is something that they are proud of. Those who made it on top are of course blessed with high IQ and the society looks at them as people who would be scientists, lawyers, doctors, accountants, etc. Contrary to the fact of many, those who don’t belong on top also have the ability to be successful in life. After all, it is not all IQ that is needed by a person to succeed, people also need the strength of character or grit to survive and be successful in life.

We humans are intelligent species. Sometimes, we just need to re-awaken the intelligence that is innate in us so that we can be successful in everything that we do. You may not be very good in one aspect, but you are good in other stuff. One is good in solving puzzles, but one is very good in painting. I would like to highlight that not all people who have high IQ ended up in a bed of roses, some of them ended up in mental institutions or in jail. Not all people who don’t have that high IQ but ended up being businessmen and is reaping the fruits of their hard work, grit, and people skills. We are all intelligent. its just that, our intelligence comes in different package.
