Do you consider yourself to be intelligent? Doesn’t really
matter...your opinion is irrelevant.
Do (most) people around you consider you intelligent? Now
that is what is important.
You are intelligent if you have been successful in subtly
convincing people around to “voluntarily” consider you smart.
Intellect cannot be quantified. There is not yet a device to
measure the quality and quantity of the grey matter that we house in our skulls.
There are zones of intellect. Any one residing out of your
zone of intellect is actually stupid to you and vice versa.
Ideally people should limit 70% of their conversation with
people who fall within the same band of intellect. 15% of conversation should
be with people falling in a band that they consider to be slightly higher
placed than their own band in order to take inspiration. The rest 10% should be
with people falling in the band slightly lower placed to generate some
feel-good factor.
So did you or did you not notice that five percent of
conversation time has gone missing? During that time people should talk to the dimwits
...it would help them to appreciate the value of silence. J
Intellect like beauty is to be judged by the beholder...no
no...listener.
PS: While we are on this...when women say that they like
greying men...they are talking about the grey cells inside the skull and not
about the ones on their scalp!!!
democracy rules here as well i guess!but suppose someone taking advantage of the "numbers", makes it "demo-crazy"....do you think,it would still hold true?! ;)
